The US government notifies Nvidia it'll need a license to sell certain A100 and H100 GPUs to a larger range of customers outside of China.
Nvidia says the US government is not only restricting the company’s AI chip sales to China, but also to certain countries in the Middle East.
The restrictions target Nvidia’s H100 and A100 GPUs, which are facing massive demand for their ability to develop generative AI programs, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT. The company mentioned the new restriction in an SEC filing, which Reuters spotted.
