PALO ALTO, U.S. -- The U.S. government has told Nvidia it must stop shipping some of its high-end artificial intelligence chips to China without licenses immediately, a company filing Tuesday shows.
The U.S. Department of Commerce released a set of new semiconductor export restrictions on Oct. 18. The new rules tightened definitions for advanced AI chips and added preventive measures such as additional licensing requirements for shipments to over 40 countries to avoid resales to China.
