Strategic Misstep: 20 national security experts write letter to Donald Trump administration, want America to STOP sale of these Nvidia chips to China
Certain section of security experts seem quite upset with the Donald Trump administration's decision to allow sale of Nvidia H20 advanced AI chips to China again. A group of 20 national security experts and former government officials have written a letter to the U.S. Department of Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick urging the Trump administration to revert its decision to allow Nvidia to resume sale of Nvidia H20 AI chips in China . As reported by Tech Crunch, the letter calls the decision a 'Strategic Misstep'. It claims that the decision will have detrimental effects on the US' AI 'edge' for both military and civilian use cases. The letter further claims that selling Nvidia H20 chips in China will worsen the existing AI chip bottleneck in the US and that these chips could be used to support China's military. This letter comes weeks after the DOC gave Nvidia the green light to start selling its AI chips in China as the trade talks between the two countries started. At the time, Lutnick called Nvidia's H20 as the company's 'fourth best' AI chip. The H20 chip reportedly sits at the center of a broader US-China trade talk standoff. Nvidia is also introducing a new 'RTX Pro' chip designed specifically for the Chinese market, calling it 'fully compliant' with regulations and ideal for digital manufacturing applications like smart factories and logistics. What the national security experts' letter says by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Japanese AI invention allows you to speak 68 languages instantly. The idea? Genius. Enence 2.0 Undo "The H20 is a potent accelerator of China's frontier AI capabilities, not an outdated AI chip. Designed specifically to work around export control thresholds, the H20 is optimized for inference, the process responsible for the dramatic capabilities gains made by the latest generation of frontier AI reasoning models. For inference tasks, the H20 outperforms even the H100, an AI chip this administration has restricted access to due to its advanced capabilities." "Both U.S. and Chinese AI labs are betting that further investment in inference compute will be critical to the next leap in frontier AI capabilities. On the heels of DeepSeek's breakthrough model release earlier this year, Chinese AI labs began bulk-ordering H20 chips to develop even more advanced AI models. If the U.S. backs off of export controls to China, we believe that China's next generation of frontier AI will be built on the backs of the H20," the letter added. "While the biggest buyers of Nvidia's H20 chip are nominally civilian companies in China, we fully expect the H20 and the AI models it supports to be deployed by China's People's Liberation Army." "The decision to ban H20 exports earlier this year was the right one. We ask you to stand by that principle and continue blocking the sale of advanced AI chips to China as America works to maintain its technological edge. This is not a question of trade. It is a question of national security," concludes the letter. Letter's signatories The letter's signatories include Matt Pottinger, the former deputy national security adviser during Trump's first term; Stewart Baker, the former assistant secretary of Homeland Security under George W Bush; and David Feith, a former member of the National Security Council, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Lloyd Thrall, among others.

China says AI risks becoming "exclusive game" as Beijing proposes global body
FILE - A Chinese flag flies from a ship at the Port of Oakland on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, in Oakland, Calif. (AP Photo/Noah Berger,File) Chinese Premier Li Qiang called for the establishment of a global artificial intelligence cooperation organization on Saturday, positioning Beijing as an alternative to Washington's AI dominance just days after President Trump unveiled his low-regulation AI strategy. Speaking at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai, Li warned that AI risks becoming "an exclusive game for a few countries and companies." The premier emphasized China's commitment to open-source AI development and promised to share technological advances with developing nations, particularly in the Global South. Li's proposal comes as the world's two largest economies engage in escalating technological competition, with AI emerging as a critical battleground. Beijing challenges US tech restrictions Without explicitly naming the United States, Li criticized what he described as technological monopolies and restrictions on AI development. His remarks directly counter the Trump administration's AI Action Plan released Wednesday, which aims to maintain American supremacy in artificial intelligence while limiting access to advanced technologies, according to Reuters. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals Undo Washington has imposed strict export controls on high-end AI chips from companies like Nvidia and advanced chipmaking equipment, citing national security concerns about China's military capabilities. Despite these restrictions, Chinese companies including Huawei continue developing AI systems to compensate for limited access to American technology. Global framework needed for AI governance, says Chinese Premier Li stressed the urgent need for international coordination on AI governance, describing current global efforts as "fragmented" with significant differences in regulatory approaches between countries. The three-day Shanghai conference brings together industry leaders and policymakers from over 30 nations, including Russia, South Africa, Qatar, South Korea, and Germany. China's Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu revealed plans to potentially headquarter the proposed organization in Shanghai while promoting pragmatic AI cooperation. The initiative includes establishing cross-border open-source communities and facilitating international technology exchanges, positioning China as a leader in global AI governance amid growing concerns about the technology's ethical implications and security risks.

Google Waymo chooses Violence…Continues to threaten vehicle with aggressive forward maneuver, says post on Twitter; Elon Musk responds: But what do I …
Elon Musk Tesla CEO Elon Musk responded sarcastically to a viral video showing a Waymo autonomous vehicle attempting what appeared to be a head-on collision while blocking traffic in Austin, Texas. "But what do I know about technology," Musk posted on X, reigniting the long-standing debate between LiDAR-based and vision-only autonomous driving systems. The incident, captured on July 6, 2025, showed the Waymo robotaxi making "aggressive forward maneuvers" while threatening an exiting vehicle. "@Cyber_Trailer" posted the footage, writing: "Waymo chooses violence. Blocked traffic lane while attempting head on collision with exiting vehicle. Continues to threaten vehicle with aggressive forward maneuver." Vision-Only systems outperform LiDAR in recent tests The Austin incident has provided fresh ammunition for critics of LiDAR technology , particularly Tesla supporters who advocate for camera-based systems. Ray, a Tesla enthusiast (@ray4tesla), used the moment to highlight broader concerns about sensor fusion approaches. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo "Elon famously said 6 years ago that LiDAR is a fool's errand and many at the time were skeptical about his claim," Ray posted. "Now it's becoming increasingly clear that Elon is right about the use of LiDAR. Sensor fusion is not optimal for autonomous driving, as evidenced by countless incidents of Waymo blocking intersections, getting stuck in traffic for no reason, getting confused in construction zones and even worse going in the lane of opposing traffic." The debate extends beyond individual incidents, with major autonomous vehicle companies reconsidering their sensor strategies. Chinese tech giants Baidu and Xpeng are reportedly transitioning toward vision-only approaches, following Tesla's lead in relying primarily on camera systems and neural networks. "Separately, CEO Robin Li recently alluded to Baidu's transition to vision-only approach while Xpeng is in the early stage to phase out Lidars," the user noted, suggesting a broader industry trend away from expensive LiDAR sensors toward more software-dependent solutions.
