NVIDIA leader Jensen Huang says American rules about sharing AI with China make no sense. He believes US technology should spread across all countries before America loses its lead. The rules hurt NVIDIA because the company might lose $15 billion in sales. Chinese experts already make up over half of AI researchers worldwide. China created its systems like DeepSeek despite trade limits.
Huang points out that many AI companies employ Chinese workers for important projects. China keeps making AI progress at the same speed as before the limits started. Banning chips pushes China to build its alternatives faster. NVIDIA built business ties with China over 30 years before these rules came. The current approach helps China become independent rather than depending on American technology.
Huang compares losing the Chinese AI business to giving up Boeing aircraft sales. He argues that limiting chip sales costs the US about $3 billion in taxes. The Chinese AI market is worth about $50 billion. Huang warns that American leaders lack knowledge about how these choices affect tech growth. China will keep advancing whether America helps or not.
