Nvidia H200 Chips Cleared for a Chinese Firm with an Empty Office

The New York Times reports that New Matrix is on the approved list to handle Nvidia's H200 AI chips in China, yet its offices are empty. Concerns are growing about how firms are vetted.

NEWS & TRENDS

Concerns are being raised that neither the Commerce Department nor Nvidia is doing proper due diligence on Chinese firms cleared to handle the company's H200 AI chips.

According to The New York Times, New Matrix is on the list of approved firms. Its offices are reportedly empty, described as "a hollow gray shell."

Why it matters: Weak vetting of chip buyers could invite tighter export rules that affect the AI hardware supply chain.

The report puts a spotlight on how the US vets companies that receive advanced AI chips.
