U.S. officials provide some relief to non-Chinese chipmakers

BMW faces chip shortage

The U.S. government is allowing at least two non-Chinese chipmakers who are operating in China to receive restricted goods and services

It means their suppliers will not have to seek licenses for their work. It’s expected to ease the burden for these companies, which are in the firing line as the U-S cracks down on the Chinese chip sector.

The Biden administration is planning to spare foreign companies from the brunt of the new measures.

But the latest round of regulations failed to mention companies in this position.

The new rules mean U-S exports need licenses before they can be shipped to facilities in China.

U.S. authorities were seeking to grant these licenses on a case-by-case basis.

Vendors will also be prohibited from supporting and sending supplies that are not from the U-S to Chinese factories if they are required to.

It is unclear how long a licenses may take, as concerns loom around delays to shipments.

As businesses embrace cutting-edge tech, challenges like data sovereignty and AI are taking centre stage.

 

Over the past six months, the AI industry has seen significant advancements, with competing models such as Meta’s Luma and Google’s Gemini entering the market.

However, these developments come with a reality check. Building large language models (LLMs) requires substantial computing power and time, making immediate returns on investment unlikely.

One promising innovation is agentic AI, a step beyond generative AI, which enables proactive, automated solutions.

For instance, this technology could stabilise IT systems autonomously, diagnosing and resolving issues without human intervention.

Data sovereignty has also emerged as a key focus, with increasing emphasis on keeping data within national borders to comply with local laws. This has driven the adoption of sovereign clouds and private data centres, ensuring secure and localised data processing for AI development.

Deepak Ajmani, Vice President of ANZ & APAC Emerging Markets at Confluent, joins to discuss the evolving business landscape.
