On May 3, in response to the US government's strengthening of export controls on AI chips to China through the "Artificial Intelligence Diffusion Export Control Framework," the parent company of the AI model Claude, and the American AI star company Anthropic publicly supported the measures. Nvidia released an official statement criticizing the move. The Nvidia statement said, "China has half of the global AI researchers and strong AI experts at every level of the AI stack. The US cannot manipulate regulatory agencies to win in the AI field. US companies should focus on innovation and embracing challenges, rather than spreading absurd rumors." The "Artificial Intelligence Diffusion Export Control Framework" was implemented by former US President Biden as an emergency measure before leaving office, with the aim of further tightening the export of AI chips to China. It was released on January 13, 2025. After Trump took office, he did not directly overturn this policy. According to the policy process, exporters, re-exporters, and transshippers must comply with the agreement requirements after May 15.
