KUS government is considering additional restrictions on China’s access to advanced chip technology used in AI, Bloomberg reported on Tuesday. The potential measures aim to limit China’s ability to utilize a cutting-edge chip architecture known as gate all-around (GAA), the report said. GAA transistor architecture enhances chip performance and reduces power consumption. The specifics of the proposed rules are still under discussion, and it is unclear when a final decision will be made, according to the media outlet’s sources. Major semiconductor companies Nvidia, Intel, AMD, TSMC, and Samsung are planning to begin mass production of GAA-designed chips next year, the report added. [Bloomberg]
