Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says he is disappointed by China’s reported chip curbs



The CEO of Nvidia, which faces tight restrictions on selling its chips to China amid the Sino-US battle over trade and technology, said he was disappointed about the situation.

Jensen Huang said he expected to discuss the issue with US President Donald Trump at a state banquet hosted by the British government that they would be attending on Wednesday night.

Santa Clara, California-based Nvidia, the world’s most valuable company, is restricted from exporting to China its most advanced chips, which are in demand for developing artificial intelligence.

Adding to the problems, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing unnamed sources, that China’s internet regulator was banning domestic tech companies from buying an Nvidia chip model tailored for the local market.

Asked about the report at a media briefing in London, Huang said he did not have a reaction, but added, “I think that we could only be in service of a market if the country wants us to be”.
