Nvidia's AI Chips Reach China Despite US Curbs

Nvidia's artificial intelligence chips continue to make their way to China despite US export curbs, prompting government officials to ask why the company missed red flags. Washington's export controls have spawned a sprawling shadow trade, according to Bloomberg's Edwin Chan. The company hasn't been accused of violating controls or willfully aiding smugglers, and said it abides by the rules. The report sheds light on the challenges of enforcing export restrictions and the unintended consequences of such measures. As the US seeks to limit China's access to advanced technology, the shadow trade underscores the difficulties of controlling global supply chains.
