Trump officials likely plan to tighten curbs on Nvidia’s China sales

US President Donald Trump’s administration is considering tightening restrictions on artificial intelligence leader Nvidia’s sales of its H20 chips designed for the China market, three people familiar with the matter said.

Conversations to restrict shipments of those chips to China are in very early stages among Trump officials, the people said, adding the idea has been under consideration since Democratic former President Joe Biden’s administration. H20 chips can be used to run AI software and were designed to comply with existing US curbs on shipments to China, spearheaded by Biden.
