Ingraham: Trump announced he's lifting some export controls on Nvidia allowing the chip maker to sell some products to approved customers in China. Why are we giving anything to China? Johnson: I met with Jenson, the CEO of Nvidia and the way he explains is he has about 95% market share effectively of AI. And with the chips and everything that is involved in that, his argument is if he's not able to compete in China, their system can over take him and thus the U.S.

🚨🇺🇸🇨🇳 SPEAKER JOHNSON DEFENDS TRUMP SELLING NVIDIA AI CHIPS TO CHINA: "IF WE DON'T, THEY'LL OVERTAKE US" Speaker Johnson explained Trump's decision to lift export controls allowing Nvidia to sell AI chips to approved Chinese customers, warning that blocking sales could allow China to overtake America's AI dominance: "China is a principal threat except for the national debt. I met with Jensen, the CEO of Nvidia. He has about 95% market share of AI. His argument is if he's not able to compete in China, then their system can overtake him and thus overtake the US. It's a delicate balance. We've got to treat China as the adversary that they are but also they're a really important trade partner." Source: Fox

Chamath: "Nvidia is not doing what's in the best interest of the United States." 🇺🇸🇨🇳 "I think we can all do the math. About 47% of all of NVIDIA's revenue goes to China and Chinese-related countries." "And I think when you peel back this onion, what you will find is a whole raft of companies that were stood up to buy these Nvidia GPUs to essentially act as a waystation for China." "And I think that is the big problem." "Let's have a thought starter: if 47% of all of the AI capability and horsepower is being shipped to three Asian countries, where do you think the apps that require that amount of horsepower live?" "Is there a Cursor of Bhutan that we did not know? Is there a great shopping app in Cambodia that's come out of nowhere, that's AI powered?" "I think the answer is no." "Every single time we have an advance in the United States, how is it that Alibaba shows up with something incredible? DeepSeek shows up with something better?" "At every turn and at every step of AI, they are at the same rate or one step ahead." "To be honest with you, I think the real problem that we have is that Nvidia is not doing what is in the best interest of the United States." "You have a American company that has been working around the guidelines at every turn to try to land silicon into the hands of China." "Late last year, they introduced this thing called the H20 that was explicitly designed for China and to be compliant with US rules at the time." "Which again, gives these guys substantial performance." "This is a case where (Nvidia) has plausible deniability. I sell something to a Singaporean registered company? Plausible deniability." "What am I supposed to do? You can't expect me to audit it. I think that's what NVIDIA's answer will be to this question." "But what is the real expectation? At a minimum, the United States should have a mechanism to understand it." "It is implausible that if you did one or two layers of work, you would not find that most of this traffic is being used by Chinese organizations."

Zuck: "The export controls are clearly working in a way. DeepSeek did all these very impressive low-level optimizations. That is impressive. But then you ask: why did they have to do that when none of the American labs did? Well, because they're using partially nerfed chips—that are the only thing that Nvidia is allowed to sell in China because of the export controls."

🚨 THIS IS EXTREMELY BAD FOR $NVDA. China is preparing a $295 billion plan to build AI data centers across the whole country. The catch for America: at least 80% of the chips must be homegrown. That means Huawei in. Nvidia out. Jensen Huang confirmed this last month. Nvidia has "largely conceded" China to Huawei, he told CNBC. China once accounted for at least 20% of Nvidia's entire data center revenue. That market is now all but GONE. America spent years locking China out. China just stopped knocking.

Jensen Huang says it has “largely conceded” China’s AI chip market to Huawei Nvidia was not rejected because China “hates” Nvidia. It was pushed out because Washington turned chips into a leash. China learned the lesson very clearly: You cannot build AI sovereignty on hardware that your geopolitical rival can revoke with one export-control memo. Jensen Huang can be friendly. Nvidia can be excellent. Chinese demand can be huge. None of that changes the strategic reality. If the neck of China’s AI industry depends on an American-controlled chip supply, then it is not an industry. It is a hostage. So China did what any serious civilization-state would do: It built alternatives. It endured the pain. It let Huawei grow into the space Washington forced open. Now Nvidia says it has “largely conceded” China’s AI chip market to Huawei. That is not China closing a door. That is America sawing off the bridge, then acting surprised when China built its own road.

Jensen Huang explains the AI industry as a five layer cake, and why "model only" companies are missing the real map. "AI is not just a model. AI is really a five layer cake to think about it." "From the lowest level, it requires energy because AI is produced, generated in real time, just like you and I right now. We need calories, we need energy." "The next level is chips. This is where Nvidia is and where a lot of the companies in Taiwan are." "The layer above that is infrastructure: land, power, data center, as well as the cloud service software that turns the chips into a cloud service." "The layer above that is where most people think about when they think about AI, which is models. ChatGPT was revolutionary. Claude Code is now incredibly successful. But AI is much more than just human language." Most people are still debating the model layer. Jensen is describing an industrial stack: energy, chips, infrastructure, models, and applications. If you are building in AI, this is the map that matters. The winning product may look like software, but the bottlenecks are calories, land, power, data centers, chips, and distribution. - Jensen Huang (NVIDIA), CEO of Nvidia, on CNA

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: "China🇨🇳 was supposed to develop in a way that is subservient to the United States🇺🇸 (they didn’t)…now they have to be punished.” A reminder as Trump visits China that the entire US’ mounting pressure against Beijing for a coming war is because not only did China develop in a way that wasn’t subservient to Washington, like Japan… But China also built a better economic system, which is obvious to Americans and the rest of the world. The US wants to weaken China to stop Americans asking ‘why can’t we live like that?’ or ‘why can we not have that infrastructure here?’

NVIDIA CEO: “CHINA IS MOVING INCREDIBLY FAST IN AI” Jensen Huang said China is accelerating AI on all fronts - infrastructure, models, and real-world applications: "China is fast to both invent a new technology, but also to integrate the technology, to apply the technology. And because there's so much competition in China, everybody wants to build a great company and wants to succeed, a lot of great capabilities come out. And at the foundation of all of that is China's education system has produced some of the world's finest AI researchers - about 50% of the world's AI researchers are based here in China." Source:

watched through the entire interview these guys aren't in the same league. jensen plays to win. dwarkesh has been one shotted by mythos marketing. in a way its jensen arguing against dario by proxy. think there's a fundamental underestimation that most ppl in the west have about huawei. they are a freak monster powerhouse and jensen is 100% correct in wanting to push nvidia in china versus letting huawei eat the domestic market. the worst outcome for the US would be for deepseek to be trained 100% on huawei chips versus a china that is dependent on the nvidia stack.

Nvidia is pulling off the most sophisticated financial loop in tech history. They invested $40 BILLION in its own customers in just 5 months. Here's why this could blow up the entire AI economy: Nvidia generated $97 billion in free cash flow last year. Instead of sitting on it, Jensen started writing checks to every company in the AI supply chain. Not small checks. We're talking about billions at a time. And almost every single one of those companies turns around and spends that money on Nvidia chips. Follow the money: $30 billion into OpenAI. OpenAI is one of Nvidia's largest GPU customers and spends billions annually on Nvidia hardware through cloud providers. $2 billion into CoreWeave, a company that exists exclusively to rent out data centers full of Nvidia GPUs. $2 billion into Marvell for silicon photonics that connects Nvidia systems. $2 billion into Lumentum for optical tech that powers Nvidia data centers. $2 billion into Coherent for the same thing. $2 billion into Nebius, an AI cloud company deploying Nvidia infrastructure. $3.2 billion into Corning, the glassmaker building three new US factories specifically to make fiber optic cables for Nvidia's next-gen systems. $2.1 billion into IREN, a data center operator that just agreed to deploy 5 gigawatts of Nvidia-designed infrastructure. And the list goes on. Every single recipient either buys Nvidia chips directly, builds infrastructure that runs on Nvidia chips, or manufactures components that go inside Nvidia systems. Matthew Bryson, an analyst at Wedbush Securities, said in a research note that Nvidia's dealmaking fits "squarely into the circular investment theme." Bloomberg even published an entire interactive feature this week titled "AI Circular Deals: How Microsoft, OpenAI and Nvidia Keep Paying Each Other." The piece maps how capital flows between the same handful of companies and gets counted as revenue multiple times along the way. But here's the part that makes this genuinely complicated: Nvidia's $5 billion investment in Intel from September is now worth over $25 billion. That's a 5x return in months. Their private company portfolio went from $3.4 billion to $22.3 billion on the balance sheet in a single year. They booked $8.9 billion in gains from equity investments alone. So when critics say "circular investing," Nvidia can point to Intel and say "we turned $5 billion into $25 billion, this is just smart capital deployment." And they're not wrong. Some of these bets ARE paying off like crazy. The real question is whether Nvidia is a chipmaker that happens to invest, or a venture fund that happens to sell chips. Because right now Jensen is doing both at a scale that has never existed in the semiconductor industry. No chipmaker in history has EVER invested $40 billion in its own ecosystem in five months. Last fiscal year Nvidia invested $17.5 billion in private companies. Their SEC filing literally says those investments include "AI model companies that purchase its products directly or through cloud service providers." They're saying it themselves: We invest in companies that buy our products. On Nvidia's last earnings call, Jensen told investors their investments are focused on "expanding and deepening our ecosystem reach." Translate that from CEO-speak and it means " we're funding the companies that fund us. The bull case says Nvidia is building an unbreakable moat by financing the entire AI supply chain and ensuring it all runs on Nvidia hardware. The bear case says this is the most elaborate circular revenue scheme since the subprime mortgage era and it all breaks apart the moment one domino falls. Both cases use the exact same evidence.

We asked (Co-Founder & CEO, webAI) about the advantages of running AI on devices. "There's no free lunch, but there are things cloud players can't do. It's RAM intensive, yes, but by distributing across devices, we can unlock more accuracy and context. But if you're hosting for a million users on Nvidia, you can't do that." "With our stack, everything's downstream only. Think about health data, like you want that to be private. The dream is personalized models for millions that never leave their device."

Elon Musk on where people should invest: "I don't really buy stocks. I don't look for things to invest in. I just try to build things and then there happens to be stock of the company that I built, but I don't have like a portfolio or anything; Google is gonna be pretty valuable in the future. They've laid the ground work for an immense amount of value creation from an AI standpoint. Nvidia is obvious at this point. There's an argument that companies that do AI and robotics, and maybe spaceflight, are going to be overwhelmingly almost all of the value."

The AI Cold War: USA🇺🇸 vs China🇨🇳 On E221, the besties discussed how US efforts to impede China’s AI progress by restricting GPU exports are producing unintended consequences. Chamath Palihapitiya: "The US government is really trying to make sure that these next-gen GPUs don't go directly to China, but also don't go to countries that could then redirect them into China." Gavin Baker: " We're putting enough friction into the system that it does theoretically give America an advantage at the cost of creating tremendous incentives for China to develop their own semiconductor ecosystem and ... you know, necessity is the mother of innovation." " These export controls are creating an immense incentive for China to be really algorithmically innovative." "And you saw that with DeepSeek where there were some real algorithmic innovations." @jason: " Said another way, if we squeeze too tightly on letting them buy the Nvidia chips, they might make a better Nvidia." Chamath: "They're trying now." Jason: "What are the chances they succeed in your mind, Gavin?" Gavin: " In the next five years, I think zero. I think it's really, really hard." "But over ten years, who knows?"

This is the first stage. We are now in a situation where it's 10 and 10 plus 20 for fentanyl, so 30% tariffs in the US of China goods coming in, and they can get rid of 20% of it if they solve the fentanyl problem. That they will do with certainty. But we’re not finished there and neither are millions of small entrepreneurs in America that I represent. We need IP law to be finally put into place so that our products and services are protected in their markets the way we protect theirs and ours. So, reciprocal playing field is where we need to go. This is a great first step but it's only the beginning. I want to sell to the Chinese people. I have no problem with them. I have a big problem with their government. They don't abide by the rules.
