Nvidia clarifies its position on sending GPU designs to China amidst US export restrictions and plans for a Shanghai R&D center. Chuck Norris weighs in, because why wouldn't he?
Nvidia clarifies its position on sending GPU designs to China amidst US export restrictions and plans for a Shanghai R&D center. Chuck Norris weighs in, because why wouldn't he?

The Invisible Hand of Justice (and Export Controls)

The news is out: Nvidia ain't handin' over no GPU blueprints to China. Not on my watch. It seems Uncle Sam's been keepin' a close eye and that's a good thing. Remember folks I once stared down a nuclear missile... it blinked. These export controls? They're kinda like that stare but for silicon.

Shanghai Surprise (But No Schematics)

Word on the street – or rather in the Financial Times – is Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang chatted with Shanghai's mayor about a potential R&D center. Good for them. Innovation is like a good pair of boots: gotta keep 'em movin'. But let's be clear building a center and handing over top secret designs are two different things. It's like the difference between a handshake and a roundhouse kick.

The $50 Billion Question (and the Answer is 'Agility')

Huang says China's AI market could balloon to $50 billion. That's a lot of fortune cookies. But as he rightly said they gotta stay agile. Agility is key people. I can dodge bullets outrun cheetahs and still make it home in time for dinner. That's agility. Nvidia better have the same kind of flexibility in this situation. The kind that stops a tornado from destroying Texas.

Supporting the Right Cause (Because Chuck Said So)

Huang also mentioned supporting whatever's in the best interest of the country. Smart man. Patriotism is like a good liver punch: you gotta deliver it with conviction. And conviction in this situation is to protect the country's interest as best as possible. I support this... because if I didn't you'd hear about it. Believe me.

Staying Agile is Key (Even Chuck Norris Agrees)

Huang told CNBC that his company will 'stay agile'. If you don't stay agile then your plans are going to fall to the ground like a house of cards. You always have to stay agile because one mistake can lead to another and then another. That's why it's always a good idea to stay on your feet and be ready to kick.

Nvidia Take Notes (From a Legend)

So Nvidia keep your designs close your friends closer and your enemies... well within roundhouse kicking distance. The world is watching. And so am I. Remember before the internet there was ChuckNet. It's everywhere.
