Anthropic CEO Raises Concerns Over US Approval of Nvidia AI Chip Sales to China

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei criticized the US government's decision to allow Nvidia to sell advanced AI chips to China, likening it to selling nuclear weapons to North Korea due to potential national security risks. Speaking at Davos, he and other AI experts expressed concern that such sales could accelerate China's AI capabilities, challenging US technological leadership. The Trump administration eased Biden-era restrictions, permitting limited chip exports subject to technical reviews, while some of the most powerful chips remain restricted.
