Trump says may speak to China’s Xi about Nvidia’s ‘super-duper’ Blackwell chip
US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he will speak to Chinese President Xi Jinping about Nvidia’s state-of-the-art Blackwell artificial intelligence chip at their expected meeting on Thursday.
Sales of the US firm’s high-end AI chips to China have been a key sticking point in protracted trade talks between the world’s two largest economies this year.
Beijing has long been irked by Washington’s export controls that ban Nvidia from selling its most advanced AI chips to China. The US has justified these restrictions by alleging the Chinese military would use the chips to increase its capabilities.
