The United States is considering imposing caps on the export of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) chips from American companies, including Nvidia Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), to certain countries, particularly in the Middle East and Persian Gulf regions. Biden administration officials have discussed limiting the sales on a country-specific basis by setting ceilings on export licenses, aiming to address national security concerns. The potential restrictions would limit some nations' AI capabilities. The deliberations are in early stages and remain fluid.
