Nvidia, a global leader in AI chip production, has voiced strong criticism of new restrictions introduced by the Biden administration aimed at limiting the export of advanced AI technologies to countries considered high-risk. The company praised policies from Trump’s first term, calling them critical to the success of American AI, and expressed hope for a return to more favorable policies under the anticipated Trump administration.
The Biden administration’s Interim Rule on AI Development introduces stricter export controls on advanced AI chips to nations such as China and Russia, already subject to semiconductor trade restrictions. The goal of these measures is to keep the development of cutting-edge AI technologies under the control of the United States and 18 allied nations, including the UK, Germany, Japan, and Taiwan. The White House stated the restrictions are necessary to prevent the misuse of AI in creating weapons of mass destruction or enabling mass surveillance. However, Nvidia has criticized the new rules as an obstacle to American competitiveness, citing a lack of transparency and legislative review.
Nvidia claimed the restrictions undermine the innovation-friendly environment fostered during Trump’s first term, which supported the growth of the U.S. AI industry while maintaining national security. The company labeled the regulation as overly bureaucratic, warning it could hinder global economic growth and innovation.
In its statement, Nvidia looked ahead, expressing hope for a return to policies that would bolster American leadership, competitive advantage, and economic growth. However, Nvidia has not been among the tech companies donating to Trump’s inaugural fund, nor has CEO Jensen Huang been included in high-profile events linked to the former president.
