Will China use Nvidia chips for making weapons? Here's what company CEO Jensen Huang says

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who is set to visit China soon, tried to assuage concerns that China could possibly use the company's technology for military purposes.
Ahead of his visit to China, US lawmakers, in a letter to China, requested him not to meet representatives of companies that are working with China's military or intelligence establishment or suspected to have engaged in activities that undermine US export controls.
"There is a new bipartisan consensus that the hardware powering advanced AI, which includes Nvidia graphics processing units, is of immense importance. If exported freely to the PRC (People's Republic of China), this hardware could accelerate the PRC's effort to modernise its military. Despite the well-established concern that Nvidia chips could enable Chinese companies to develop and operate AI models that compete with American AI models and support Chinese military and intelligence activities, you continue to publicly insist that Nvidia should be allowed to export these chips to PRC," the letter read.

Downplaying such concerns, Huang, during an interview with CNN, said there is no need to worry about the Chinese military making use of the American-made tech because they "simply cannot rely on it." “It could be, of course, limited at any time,” he added.
"They don't need Nvidia's chips, certainly or American tech stacks in order to build their military," he said, pointing out that there is plenty of computing capacity in China already.
The US government has already imposed strict restrictions on Nvidia's ability to sell its advanced AI chips, including the H20 chip, to China. According to the rules, the company cannot sell these advanced chips to China without explicit government approval.
