Why the US is blocking top-tier AI chips for China.

[00:00:00]I mean, at the end of the day, the United States remains a dominant player in the space of AI and in the space of of semiconductors and chips. That said, you know, the Chinese are investing billions and billions of dollars in their own industry. So, that's going to be an area of competition.

[00:00:13]>> AI chips should be sold to China? Well, I think as you've seen the president announced that certain chips can be sold. Obviously, it's up to the Chinese to accept it. But, I I think we always have to establish our area of dominance.

[00:00:24]In essence, the cutting edge, the things that give us an advantage, it would be dumb and stupid for us to sell that to anybody, especially a country that's going to reverse engineer it and leapfrog us. So, I think that's understood. Maturely speaking, there are things the United States still has dominant position in and from our national security perspective, we should keep that dominance. We want to keep that dominance. The Chinese are going to do their best to catch us and even surpass us. We shouldn't make it easy for them, the way we kind of did for 20 years when we sort of had a different view of this relationship.
