NTD Business (Oct. 18): Biden Cuts China Off From More AI Chips; Protests After Gaza Hospital Blast

The Biden administration plans to halt shipments to China of more advanced artificial intelligence chips designed by Nvidia and others, part of a raft of measures released on Tuesday that seek to stop Beijing from receiving cutting-edge U.S. technologies to strengthen its military. The goal is to limit China's access to "advanced semiconductors that could fuel breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and sophisticated computers that are critical to [Chinese] military applications," Commerce Department Secretary Gina Raimondo said, stressing the administration was not seeking to hurt Beijing economically.
