Jensen was right. We should have sold chips to China so they'd be depenent on us.

Now they have their own chips and most of Nvidia product line is internally banned.

It's unlikely that China would've become completely dependent on us in either case. They're good copycats, with incredible talent in engineering and manufacturing. They're aware that we depend on them for a lot - I think they'd be similarly aware of the risk of becoming dependent on us.

I never understood that argument, are you saying Chinese companies are not going to build their own chips if they get access to Nvidia chips?

Why would it be a good thing if the world was even more dependend on the USA?

US hegemony is one of the biggest problems of our time.
