Trump gives Nvidia green light to sell advanced AI chips to China

US President Donald Trump has announced that he will allow AI chip giant Nvidia to sell its advanced H200 chips to "approved customers" in China, BBC reported.

"We will protect National Security, create American Jobs, and keep America's lead in AI," Trump said on social media on Monday.

The decision will apply to other US chip companies like AMD and comes after extensive lobbying by Nvidia boss Jensen Huang, who visited Washington last week to drum up support, according to BBC.
