What does "confirmed" mean? How? This seems to be the only article saying this and there's no source for the claim.

Most other articles say that Trump banned Nvidia from exporting to China.

I'm all for more production, but outright banning better products is not the solution.

Yeah honestly the Nvidia ban was stupid.

Everyone in the AI research space was saying it, but no, our old policymakers are captured by Altman, Musk and tech bros who would burn anything for their two years of pure anticompetitiveness.

The running joke is that the Nvidia ban was the best thing to ever happen to Chinese research, as it made China thrifty, while big US companies lazily burn huge GPU farms scaling up and… not improving anything. All while smaller labs rot on the vine.
