The United States has just unveiled new rules to strengthen controls on the export of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, media reported Monday.
Citing Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, the media indicate that these measures aim to safeguard the lead that the United States has over its competitors in this sensitive area.
“The United States today leads the world in AI, whether it is the development of AI or the design of specialized AI chips, and it is essential that it remain,” underlined the American official quoted by the media.
In 2023, the American administration unveiled new restrictions on the export of the most efficient chips to China, in particular components used for AI.
According to US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, the new rules “make it more difficult for our competitors to use smuggling and remote connections to evade our export controls.” “They encourage our partners around the world to use trusted suppliers for advanced AI,” he said in a statement carried by the media.
In this context, Washington wants to impose new authorizations for exports and transfers of sophisticated computer chips, in an expanded list of countries.
