Hmm, though Nvidia would like to sell their chips to China, surely this would be bad for the US overall to remove a man who has only said positive things about selling to china not broken trade embargo as far as I know. This makes American business look bad and compromised.

Getting rid of Jesen might be useful for the US AI labs, but what exactly would be the plan their. I can not see a benefit to them with this move, though I can not see any thing particularly negative for them.

Well Jensen has been the one guy who's saying we shouldn't ban Chinese open source models atleast he's made rational statements on the matter. I'd say Chinese open source models are the single biggest threat to Anthropic and OpenAI.

That does make sense but I would have though Anthropic and OpenAI would just keep lobbying the government to do so and something like a demonstration of how 'bad' people having access to open models can be and how 'dangerous' it is would be the best thing for them to further their cause.

Whether you like it or not. Circumventing export controls is a crime.

But he hasnt done that, it seems. They're allegeding the company the lady was associated with has been doing this, they deny it. It all seems like he said/she said hearsay.

The only evidence we have is Jensen drinking wine with this lady, I dont think him having drinks with someone is evidence he was participating in a conspiracy to circumvent export controls.

I dont really care if he jad an affair or not, but I think its crazy how easy it is to manufacture consent around the idea that he's a double agent by just posting picture of him being in the same room as someone.

Maybe more will come out, but there's no texts, emails or anything. Its just WSJ articles that had three pieces of legislation introduced alongside to ban Chinese access to GPUs.

Its also wild how people think having GPUs is dangerous. China isnt going to harm us with matrix multiplication lol. Now Huawei will build better platforms, constraints are the seeds of innovation. If I was the US I would much rather flood their market with cheep back-doored GPUs. Which leads me to believe these actions are all on anti-competitive measures on behalf of Anthropic, who's spent a boatload on political lobbying.
