Jokes on them. China should already have IP ownerships of these products just because of the fact that Nvidia has their manufacturing hubs based there.

May be they just want Nvidia stocks to go down so their already bought puts print now? Paul Pelosi recently bought those puts.

Your comment history was very predictable given this comment.

Of course you had to slander me instead of putting up any reasonable counter argument. Classic!

Very worrying to see the restrictions against China escalating; Especially since China is incredibly advanced in hardware manufacturing and is not at war with the West. At best, this is just pushing for escalation so they can restrict exports on their side too. Even, for them. In one of their speech (in France, on a YouTube channel called Thinkerview for those who know), one of their representative quoted a Chinese p…

A100 are current-gen Ampere NVIDIA cards on ~~Samsung's~~ TSMC's N7 processes for the datacenter, whereas H100 are next-gen Hopper NVIDIA cards on TSMC's N4 process for the datacenter.

A100, unlike the current generation consumer cards, is still made at tsmc. They just had a weird foundry split this generation.

US is scared.

The world isn't really going in the right direction and any sign toward appeasing or pacification is crucial at such stage :/ What I am calling for: closer ties and negotiations and collaborative work.

What kind of appeasement did you have in mind?

I hope you do realize you've been smoking at the proverbial gas station for 30 years now? The first step when you find yourself in a hole is to stop digging. Too late for that now, I have to admit.

I'm not sure I understand (litterally, without being sarcastic or something).

You mean that the point of no return is already passed and that there is no reason to try to calm down things using diplomacy and cooperation, that it's purely on a power level that there is the solution ?
