'Doomer science fiction': Nvidia criticizes proposed US bill that would force it to give American buyers 'first option' in AI GPU purchases before selling chips to other countries — GAIN AI Act debuts in defense spending bill

Nvidia Hopper H100 die shot.

Update 9/4/2025 05:28 am PT: An Nvidia spokesperson has reached out and provided this comment.

"The AI Diffusion Rule was a self-defeating policy, based on doomer science fiction, and should not be revived. Our sales to customers worldwide do not deprive U.S. customers of anything — and in fact expand the market for many U.S. businesses and industries. The pundits feeding fake news to Congress about chip supply are attempting to overturn President Trump's AI Action Plan and surrender America's chance to lead in AI and computing worldwide."
