US mulls letting Nvidia sell H200 chips to China

The Trump administration is considering greenlighting sales of Nvidia’s H200 artificial intelligence chips to China, people familiar with the matter said, as a bilateral detente boosts prospects for exports of advanced U.S. technology to China.

The Commerce Department, which oversees U.S. export controls, is reviewing a change to its policy of barring sales of such chips to China, the sources said, stressing that plans could change. A White House official declined to comment but said, “The administration is committed to securing America’s global technology leadership and safeguarding our national security.”
