Lol. Lmao.
In the funniest timeline, the US nationalizes Nvidia to delay China from making chips that work well with LLM's... by a year tops.
Link to original Fortune article the PC Gamer article pulled from, with this juicy relevant quote:
To do that, Raimondo said the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security, which manages export controls for the US, needs more funding from Congress.
“I have a $200 million budget. That’s like the cost of a few fighter jets. Come on,” she said. “If we’re serious, let’s go fund this operation like it needs to be funded.”
She wants to nationalize a company? Any chance the CIA pull the heart attack gun out of storage to remove her?
I was joking about the nationalization thing, she's just threatening export controls on Nvidia.
Might be the only way for them to keep nvidia american if they start to consider moving.
We nationalized a whole pharmaceutical company and nothing really came of it, why would this be different
Nvidia is THE leading firm in the GPU space and it's not even close. It would be like the US govt nationalizing Pfizer + GSK + J&J at the same time
