U.S. lawmakers call for tightening restrictions on AI chips to China, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs responds that its position is consistent
According to the Beijing Daily, on November 11, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jia Kun hosted a regular press conference. A Reuters reporter asked about the recent allegations involving Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, noting that U.S. lawmakers on Tuesday again called for tightening restrictions on China's access to advanced artificial intelligence chips. Guo Jia Kun responded, "China's position on the issue of U.S. chip exports to China has been consistent."
Previously, on November 8, Jensen Huang sent a letter to employees acknowledging personal matters, which were later implicated in a spy scandal. Both parties in the U.S. Congress used this opportunity to push for export restrictions on AI chips to China, with reports indicating that Republicans and Democrats are urgently promoting three related bills.
