Nvidia and Anthropic are publicly clashing ahead of new U.S. restrictions limiting AI chip exports to China. Anthropic, an Amazon-backed AI company, has called for stricter enforcement and described elaborate Chinese smuggling schemes, including hiding chips in prosthetic baby bumps and lobster shipments. Nvidia dismissed these claims as exaggerated, arguing that such restrictions hurt American innovation and competitiveness. The “AI Diffusion Rule,” stemming from the Biden administration, aims to safeguard U.S. AI supremacy by restricting advanced chip sales overseas. With export controls set to tighten further, the debate highlights tension between commercial interests and national security concerns, as well as uncertainty under evolving U.S. policy.
