US President Donald Trump has said Nvidia's Blackwell AI chips shall continue to be kept out of China. When Norah O'Donnell of CBS' 60 Minutes specifically asked the US president about allowing Nvidia to sell their most advanced chips in China, Trump said "No, we won't do that. We will let them [China], uh, deal with Nvidia."
During the extended version of his latest CBS 60 Minutes interview, US president Donald Trump also said, "The most advanced [AI chips], we will not let anybody have them other than the United States" (via Reuters). It's surprising, not just considering the fact that Nvidia is the first company in the world to reach a $5 trillion valuation, but also company CEO Jensen Huang's recent comments that the US needs to "go compete" with its AI chips in China.
