Report says White House sought rules on remote access to restricted chipsMachine translation

The information: two current US Commerce officials say Nvidia lobbied especially hard against any rules on remote access, the route Chinese AI labs use to reach restricted chips in Singapore and Malaysia data centers. That lobbying, along with opposition from officials previously stopped Commerce and Congress from writing new rules. In late October, the White House asked Congress to add a provision to the Overwatch Act requiring Commerce to write a rule against remote access to certain chips. It also asked to narrow the Match Act so it covers only advanced chip production, sparing legacy lines.
