>US lawmakers are now moving to cut off China's access to advanced AI chips after the Nvidia scandalHow ?The Americans can’t even solve the problems of drug smuggling and illegal immigration,how could they possibly tackle the smuggling of AI GPUs worth tens of millions of dollars?Plus, the GPUs aren’t even manufactured in the U.S.; they’re made in Taiwan. The smuggling begins the moment they leave the country.And do you know how much a B300 GPU,which costs $500,000 in the U.S.,is worth in China?>A fucking $2.5 million!!!This has absolutely no chance of succeeding. The only way would be to completely halt production of NVIDIA’s B300 and B200 GPUs. But that would be economic suicide.

These days, gangs in Southeast Asia have shifted from smuggling drugs to smuggling NVIDIA GPUs.As long as they disguise themselves as legitimate tech companies in Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, or Indonesia, they can legally purchase B300 GPUs from NVIDIA.All they have to do is ship the GPUs to China, where they can immediately turn a 500% profit.Plus, these are GPUs, not drugs—no one dies as a result.They make even more money, and they’re morally in the clear.https://x.com/DeFi8362/status/2120302809526796355
And do you know where Chinese smugglers sell their B300s?Twitter!All they have to do is post a message, and they can sell them right away.https://x.com/daier8/status/2120481428878324107

>>546266005You can’t hide GPUs up someone’s ass
this is dumbest thing even in HOI4 meterThe main factory of the strategic asset is located near the border of a country that you associate with as hostile and that country is able to lockdown this land less in 24 hours.China literally holding world chip production by balls
>>546266215Southeast Asian businessmen will always come in to fill the gap. When the Ming dynasty courts banned porcelain export to Europe, the porcelain makers simply moved to Thailand and Burma. People will always want to make money.

>>546266005Nigger states of America pushed AI hard and lost in their own game
>>546266005>How ?firmware.
>>546267255Even before that. When Trump slapped tariffs on Chinese imports during his first term, they simply moved to Vietnam for final assembly and shipping. Trade sanctions are difficult in the age of commerce
>>546266005China will be able to buy gpus via kazakhstan, because we can't stop selling to them. Kazakhstan is the largest miner of bitcoin, back in january of 2022 kazakhstan had to shut down their wifi due to riots, which lead to bitcoin dumping. If we stop selling to them it will happen again, and they won't stop trading with China.

>>546266965This Amerimutt twitter VPN fag spam is literally just revisionist slop to cope about the leak of 0.6 Million unsold Amerimutt GPUs piling up in warehouses intented to be dumped on China and Chinese AI companies switching to domestic Huawei chips for model training.
>>546266965and yetthey can'twhy is that, chinky boi
Watch there be some sort of GPS lock on even consumer GPUs moving forward. If anyone here knows why CNC machines are GPS locked to their install location...this is will be similar. Surprised this hasn't been a thing already, given the DoE uses modified Solidworks for hydrodynamic shock simulations.
>>546266005I want a GPU on the litter boxes. Sandbox 4000 256gb GFx+++
>>546266005China will just invade Taiwan
>>546266005GPU smuggling is way easier to crack down on thoThe GPUs come from a set of compliant suppliers who are already recording the details of customers, and you are limited in the ways you can smuggle a gpuAlso gpus are cheaper than drugs, weight-wise. A H200 is 3kg, and is worth $30k. Meanwhile, 3kg of cocaine is like $80k.Finally, I don't think the chinese clients would trust random joe shmoes to purchase and handle such sensitive equipment. This further narrows down how many people may be involved.
>>546266215>they are in asiaoh that makes wayyyy more senseI stupidly thought they were smuggling them from the US to ChinaI thought the US placed secondary restrictions on those countries though.
>>546266265they're beautiful
>>546266965*cutting edge world chip productionolder process nodes like 26nm are being manufactured all over the globe
>>546267255>Many AI computing companies have emerged in Southeast Asia, particularly in Singapore.You just cant magick an AI datacenter into being in an arbitrary location. You need the massive supporting electricity generation infrastructure that you can most easily find in .... *drumroll*... China. So I would say that most of these chips end up in China. There is simply not enough electricity for them anywhere else. AMD and Nvidia both measure the amount of AI accelerators sold in how many gigawatts of power that is required to power them. Its like the previous bitcoin era, but much worse, because now there is big money involved.
>>546271984LNG powers AI nice try though, their grid while improving, is chip constrained. The USA is power constrained and LNG rich. Its not even a competition and Xi isnt a retard. Frontier model is going to way of nuclear bombs. A jew will sell us out, not a taiwanese
