China summons Nvidia over backdoor security concerns with AI chips
China's cyberspace regulator said Thursday that it had summoned representatives of U.S. tech giant Nvidia to explain alleged security vulnerability risks involving its highly sought-after H20 artificial intelligence chips. This comes barely two weeks after the Trump administration suddenly reversed its ban and allowed the Silicon Valley company to resume exports of the chips to China, part of broader de-escalation ahead of trade talks.

China Summons Nvidia Over ‘Backdoor Security' Risks of A.I. Chips
China's internet regulator, the Cyberspace Administration of China, announced on Thursday that it had summoned Nvidia to explain security risks associated with one of its artificial intelligence chips developed for the Chinese market. The regulator said it had requested that Nvidia explain 'backdoor security risks associated with its H20 computing chips sold to China and submit relevant supporting documentation,' citing information it said had been revealed by 'U.S. artificial intelligence experts' that the company's chips could be shut down remotely or used to track a user's location. The H20 has been at the center of the increasingly heated contest between the United States and China for primacy over artificial intelligence. Earlier this month, Nvidia's chief executive, Jensen Huang, persuaded the Trump administration to lift an earlier ban on sales of the chip to China, in a remarkable reversal of a yearslong effort by officials in Washington to slow Beijing's technological and military progress. Mr. Huang met in recent weeks with senior officials in both Washington and Beijing, where he repeated his argument that American technology companies must do business in China to stay competitive. Former top officials in the administration of President Joseph R. Biden Jr. have warned that allowing Nvidia to sell the chips in China could set Chinese companies up to gain an irreversible dominance over artificial intelligence. The H20 is not Nvidia's most powerful chip, but it is coveted by Chinese companies for use in artificial intelligence systems. The reversal comes at a crucial time when Chinese A.I. companies are working to improve their technology and catch up to American rivals. China accounted for $17 billion of Nvidia's revenue during its last fiscal year, according to the advisory firm Bernstein Research, and Mr. Huang has previously said that the company expected to sell billions of dollars of chips in China this year. In Beijing earlier this month, Mr. Huang declined to estimate exactly how many H20 chips would now be sold in China. Nvidia did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Siyi Zhao contributed research from Beijing.

The Philanthropy Fighting Trump's Budget Cuts Without Blaming Trump
Every year, the New York City philanthropy Robin Hood tries to outdo itself with a party so good that New York's rich and famous will be moved to open their wallets and collectively give tens of millions of dollars to combat poverty in the city. The charity pulled in nearly $69 million last year at its annual gala, which is billed as one of the largest one-night fund-raisers on the planet. This year, the stakes were dramatically higher. Enormous federal budget cuts to social service programs threatened to plunge hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers into poverty, and Robin Hood's leaders hoped to persuade partygoers to dig deeper than ever in response to the emergency. At the same time, they knew they had to avoid making an overtly political pitch — blaming President Trump or the Republicans in Congress — or risk alienating their conservative donors and wealthiest benefactors, virtually all of whom would benefit from the tax cuts that were also included in the president's signature budget-cutting bill. It was a high-wire act that has eluded many other institutions in the Trump era. For Robin Hood, according to interviews with 20 board members and supporters, grantees and staff members, the moment was a critical test in a moment of entrenched polarization. Want all of The Times?
