CAC added that American AI experts had already revealed that Nvidia’s computing chips pose mature “tracking and positioning” and “remote shutdown” technologies.
I asked an Nvidia friend about this last week. He said it is not true and he would know. Of course it could be some black ops skunk work DoD type of thing then he would not know. I highly doubt it though because corporate America would not allow it either. Those types of secrets do get out and it would be very bad for Nvidia. If someone broke that news with proof they would break the internet. I've always loved that term. It is so stupid it is funny.
Still being technologically behind doesn’t mean China pose lesser threat if they get access to more and more hardware. They can continuously pose higher and higher threat while still being behind in technology.
Again , similarly, US can sell lots of nuclear weapon to Iran such that Iran wouldn’t develop their own nuclear and would depend on US for nuclear weapon and their weapon would also be technological inferior. But does Iran pose less threat in this case ?
I suppose it all depends on how important US view AI as a strategic technology. I would guess the current administration viewed it less so than the previous.
