April 15 (Reuters) - Nvidia (NVDA.O) on Tuesday said it would take $5.5 billion in charges after the U.S. government limited exports of its H20 artificial intelligence chip to China, a key market for one of its most popular chips.

Nvidia’s AI chips have been a key focus of U.S. export controls as U.S. officials have moved to keep the most advanced chips from being sold to China as the U.S. tries to keep ahead in the AI race. After those controls were implemented, Nvidia began designing chips that would come as close as possible to U.S. limits.

    they’re becoming a tech leader at this point.

    they’re not though. they might manufacture for the whole world, but they’re still not the go-to for advanced tech. They’re sure trying to catch up fast though.

    If they were to lead anything, it’ll just amount to a bully passing a baton to another bully.

      Lmao OK. I was looking at new phones coming out and all the Chinese phones have ultra thin 7000mah silicon carbon batteries that can operate in a wide range of temps while the average western phone has dogshit 4000mah lithium ion that degrades at 30c.
