🚫🇺🇸🇨🇳 US AI Export Controls to China Intensify: May Backfire

The US government plans to restrict the export of artificial intelligence models to China and ban federal agencies from purchasing Chinese AI models. This move follows the Trump administration's restriction on the export of chips like NVIDIA's H20 to China, which could severely hit NVIDIA. The company had previously earned billions of dollars by selling downgraded AI chips to China. The report specifically named DeepSeek and its founder Liang Wenfeng, and cited testimony from OpenAI, accusing DeepSeek of enhancing model performance through "illegal distillation technology." Analysts believe that restricting the export of low - end chips may stimulate China to accelerate its independent research and development and cause NVIDIA to lose an important source of revenue. At the same time, the report mentioned that the open - source model R1 released by DeepSeek has been deployed by several US companies. Some viewpoints hold that restricting the export of AI technology may not significantly impede China's technological progress but may instead accelerate its development. Just as chip restrictions have prompted companies like DeepSeek to develop high - performance models on low - end processors and Huawei to accelerate its self - developed chip research, the US government is worried that China may use AI to advance its geopolitical goals, but the development of China's AI is already difficult to contain.
