Nvidia, under pressure from U.S. and China, says its chips have no ‘back doors'
Nvidia declared its highly sought-after AI chips don't have 'back doors' or 'kill switches' and that it opposes such remote control options, in an effort to insulate itself from the intensifying technological rivalry between the United States and China.
'There is no such thing as a 'good' secret backdoor,' Nvidia Chief Security Officer David Reber Jr. wrote on Tuesday, adding that 'until recently' the idea of building in such vulnerabilities on purpose was 'beyond question.'
