As he prepares to leave office, President Joe Biden has introduced more restrictions on the sale of high-bandwidth memory and chipmaking tools to China.\nFive unnamed chip smugglers told The Information that they were not caught by Supermicro’s recent inspections. \n“We insist that our customers and partners strictly adhere to all export control restrictions,” an Nvidia spokesperson said in a statement shared with Quartz. “Any unauthorized deviation of previously-owned products, including any grey market resales, would be a burden on our business, not a benefit.”\nSupermicro said it “follows all U.S. export control requirements on the sale and export” of chips, in a statement to The Information. “If we become aware that a third party has exported or reexported without the required licenses, we investigate and take appropriate action.”\nA Dell spokesperson said it “maintains a strict trade compliance program and requires our distributors and resellers to follow all applicable regulations and export controls,” in a statement shared with Quartz. “If a partner is not adhering to these obligations, we take swift and appropriate action, up to and including termination of our relationship.”\nSupermicro did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Quartz.\nIn August, the Wall Street Journal reported that Chinese AI engineers are working with brokers to use servers with Nvidia’s AI chips that don’t require physically bringing the banned chips into the country. Despite U.S. efforts to tighten export controls on advanced chipmaking equipment sold to China, the country’s AI firms have reportedly been able to access advanced chips from Nvidia through resellers, and even by renting Nvidia-powered servers from Google (GOOGL), Microsoft (MSFT), and other tech companies.\n For the latest news, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.3","shortVersion":"4.29.3","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2492048033"}
