U.S. weighs more limits on China access to cutting-edge AI tech, Bloomberg says

Officials in the Biden administration are considering further restrictions on China’s access to technology used for artificial intelligence, targeting a cutting-edge chip architecture known as gate all-around, or GAA, that is only now making its way into the market, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg’s Mackenzie Hawkins and Ian King. Companies such as Nvidia (NVDA), Intel (INTC) and AMD (AMD), along with manufacturing partners Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) and Samsung Electronics, are looking to start mass-producing semiconductors with the GAA design within the next year, the report noted. There are also early-stage conversations about limiting exports of high-bandwidth memory chips made by SK Hynix, Micron Technology (MU) and others that speed up access to memory and help boost AI accelerators, the report added.
