  • This is good, but I think there needs to be some regulations. Companies keep introducing all sorts of anti-consumer practices to fuck over users (not only in gaming land). Now it got (for the time being) reverted, but the trust has (again) been broken.

    Consumers (should) buy something based on what has been presented at the point of time. If that changes in the future with negative effects for consumers, than this should get investigated and ultimately penalized. Companies have become too big and too powerful, which can lead to shit like this




  • Exactly and for chips you need very specific and advanced machinery which company like ASML makes, but those are banned. Now this is such a specific product that China is very very willing to get their hands on via hacks or espionage. And even if you get the information, you need the brains to get it build (which shouldn’t be a super big if a deal for them). Even if that works, building a Fab is not done in a year or 2. And even then, if you are able to bake chips, it’s not a given that it goes smooth from day one. So best case they are 5 years down the road.

    Point it is, for this type of systems it will be easier to keep control over banwise. But as long as consumer grade gpu’s can do the AI tasks, it’s for China much easier to obtain via grey markets.ans thus very hard to enforce.
