A bipartisan bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives aims to curb China's access to advanced AI chips by way of renting offshore data centers. The bill extends export controls on potent AI chips from the likes of AMD and Nvidia to cloud computing, a loophole that companies in China have allegedly used previously to access the hardware.
As reported by The Information, the Select Committee on the CCP announced the passing of the Remote Access Security Act on Monday. In a statement, the committee stated that the new bill "modernizes the Export Control Reform Act by expanding federal authority to restrict foreign adversaries’ ability to access technologies, including AI chips, remotely through cloud computing services."
