Please don't give them any more ideas lol, what OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic want is exactly more stuff like this.

They want a “moat” around their services. Protected by the most powerful government in the world, the US.

Almost everything these companies have done has been an attempt to keep this tech and it's supply chain as closed and proprietary as possible.

Hell, Sam Altman is out there saying the quiet part out loud that they don't even want consumers to have direct access to things like ram anymore.

And frankly, I wouldn't be shocked if the reason this is happening is for that very reason. A justification they can carve out to justify letting Nvidia stock fall as they simultaneously lock down the tech in a way only US AI companies will be able to easily use it.

I think like almost everything else America does it will bite us in the ass longterm, but this is directly giving the AI companies what they want. And I suspect we are on the road to that happening.

Could be Jensen was bribing the US president to sell chips to China and taking advantage of the period of any politician is openly for sale, but now with the power shift of the House and Senate and possible investigations.

It felt more prudent to get ahead of the story before January when the new elected official take their seats. Maybe he'll buy a pardon.
