LW - Analysis: US restricts GPU sales to China by aogara

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Analysis: US restricts GPU sales to China, published by aogara on October 7, 2022 on LessWrong. What are the restrictions? Broadly speaking, the policy restricts the sale of GPUs and related technology to Chinese companies. The specifics remain unclear because (a) the Department of Commerce hasn't released its official press report yet and (b) licenses to sell compute to Chinese companies will be approved on a case-by-case basis. Here's the NYTimes description of the restrictions: Companies will no longer be allowed to supply advanced computing chips, chip-making equipment and other products to China unless they receive a special license. Most of those licenses will be denied, though certain shipments to facilities operated by U.S. companies or allied countries will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, a senior administration official said in a briefing Thursday.The restrictions limit U.S. exports of the cutting-edge chips called graphic processing units that are used to power artificial intelligence applications, and place broad limits on chips destined for supercomputers in China. The rules also ban U.S.-based companies that make the equipment used to manufacture advanced logic and memory chips from selling that machinery to China without a license. Perhaps most significantly, the Biden administration also imposed broad international restrictions that will prohibit companies anywhere in the world from selling chips used in artificial intelligence and supercomputing in China, if they are made with U.S. technology, software or machinery. The restrictions used what is know as the foreign direct product rule, which was last utilized by former President Donald J. Trump to cripple Huawei. Another foreign direct product rule bans a broader range of products made outside the United States with American technology from being sent to 28 Chinese companies that have been placed on an “entity list” over national security concerns. Those companies include Beijing Sensetime Technology Development Co, a unit of major Chinese artificial intelligence company, SenseTime. Also included are Dahua Technology, Higon, IFLYTEK, Megvii Technology, Sugon, Tianjian Phytium Information Technology, Sunway Microelectronics and Yitu Technologies, as well as a variety of labs and research institutions linked to universities and the Chinese government. The rules also restrict U.S. citizens from helping to develop the Chinese semiconductor industry to advanced levels. Earlier on Friday, the administration announced that it was adding another 31 Chinese companies and institutions to an “unverified list” that limits their ability to obtain a smaller set of certain regulated U.S. items. Among them is Yangtze Memory Technologies Co., Ltd, a major memory chip maker from which Apple has considered sourcing some products. In a briefing with reporters, senior administration officials said the measures would be limited to the most advanced chips, and thus would not have a broad commercial impact on private Chinese businesses. But they conceded that they could become more restrictive over time, given that technology will begin to outpace them. Licenses to continue sales to China will be approved on a case-by-case basis by the Department of Commerce. Standards for these licenses will therefore be an ongoing battleground where this policy can become more or less strict. NYTimes: Some Republican lawmakers and China hawks have criticized the department for being too willing to issue such licenses, allowing U.S. companies to continue selling sensitive technology to China even when national security may be at stake. “If you want to stop it, you can just stop it,” said Derek Scissors, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. “When you create a licensing requirement, you are announcing to the world we d...

China is planning to be the world's AI superpower by 2030. In this episode we talk to John Kaller who is an AI entrepreneur in China. John introduces AI in China, what it's like working in China in AI, and also introduces the UnpackAI bootcamp - how you can learn about AI as part of a community.You can learn more about the unpackAI bootcamp here: https://unpackai.com/______This strategy outlined China's aims to become the world leader in AI by 2030, to monetise AI into a trillion-yuanSince 2006, China has steadily developed a national agenda for artificial intelligence development and emerged as one of the leading nations in artificial intelligence research and development. During the late 2010s, China announced in its thirteenth Five-Year Plan its plans to become the global leading AI powerhouse by 2030, aiming to get the worth of its AI industry to over 1 trillion RMB by the same year.China has broken down this goal into three stages, setting benchmarks for 2020, 2025, and 2030 respectively, as well as releasing a handful of policies, including 'Internet + AI' and 'New Generation AI Development Plan', to incentivize industry growth. Many estimate that China's AI development would contribute approximately 0.8% - 1.4% annual economic growth rate to China's economy.China's central government has a list of a 'national AI team' including fifteen China-based companies, including Baidu, Tencent, Alibaba, SenseTime, and iFlytek. Each company is supposed to lead the development of a designated specialized AI sector in China, such as facial recognition, software/hardware, voice intelligence, and others. China's rapid AI development brought significant impacts to China's society in all aspects, including socio-economic, military, and political impacts. Agriculture, transportation, accommodation and food services, and manufacturing are the top industries that would be the most impacted by AI deployment.Global Admissions Apply to universities online ____________________________________________________________Check out more episodes and subscribe on 2030school.com You can also email us at rich@2030school.comJoin the Online AI Bootcamp Join the 5 week UnpackAI online bootcamp.

Ten Pounds of Cyberlaw in a Five-pound Sack

All the cyber litigation that didn't get filed, or decided, over Thanksgiving finally hit the fan last week, and we're still cleaning up. But first, I have to ask Dave Aitel for a sanity check on Log4Shell. Does it really deserve a 10 out of 10 for impact? And what does it mean for all the open source components buried in all our enterprise software? Dave's only piece of good news is that some big projects were far enough behind in updates that they hadn't built the flaw into their products. In the first of several cyber lawsuits covered in this episode, Jamil Jaffer and I praise Google for a particularly comprehensive and creative approach to suing cybercriminals. RICO plus a boatload of computer privacy violations are at the heart of Google's complaint against two criminals behind the Glupteba botnet. We note that the defendants deserve credit for their own creativity in using the blockchain to reconstitute their C2 infrastructure. If more criminals did that, Microsoft's trademark approach—using trademark violations to seize botnet infrastructure—would be less effective. We note that this week Microsoft used litigation to take down a Chinese government network. Is it wrong to complain that Microsoft has been using this approach for long enough that botnets are only inconvenienced, not destroyed, by the tactic? Maury Shenk digs into the remarkable report that Apple CEO Tim Cook promised $275 billion of investment to China. Five years ago. And we're only finding out about it now. In secret. When Congress finally gets around to the cyber incident reporting bill that it bumped from the defense authorization act, maybe it will want to classify multibillion dollar deals with China as the kind of cyber incident that ought to be reported to anyone on the receiving end of corporate lobbying campaigns. The Tenth Circuit finished its Thanksgiving by releasing a massive opinion upholding the constitutionality of Section 702 of FISA. Jamil Jaffer, who played a key role in the adoption of Section 702 walks us through the decision. The decision was 2-1, but not on the main ruling. Instead, the debate was over Article III and the “advisory” nature of FISA court opinions reviewing executive procedures under that section. I confess to some sympathy for the dissent but wonder how it would help the defendant to strike down that procedure. Dave explains why Tor might not be as secure as we think. A mysterious and likely state sponsored actor is running hundreds of malicious Tor relays. And to add insult to injury, the actor is openly lobbying against measures to cut down on malicious Tor relays. But wait, there's more cyber litigation, and again Jamil talks us through it. A Saudi women's rights activist has brought a Computer Fraud and Abuse Act lawsuit against DarkMatter and its expat American employees for an iPhone hack that she says got her arrested. I'm a little skeptical that the lawsuit will survive a Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act motion. Maury and I question the wisdom of a recent Italian fine penalizing Amazon over a billion euros, mainly for preferencing sellers who sign up for Prime logistics support. Dave tells the sad story of Ilya Sachkov, a Russian cybersecurity whiz kid and CEO who may have believed too much that everyone sees cybersecurity as a white hat enterprise. Word is that he may have been too helpful in unraveling the DNC attackers identities in 2016 and is now paying for it with a Russian treason charge. Maury notes that the U.S. decision to blacklist the Chinese artificial intellgience company SenseTime was carefully timed to guarantee disruption of SenseTime's IPO. Whether the U.S. action will be more than a delaying tactic remains to be seen, but Maury is skeptical. Maury notes that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has lost an important battle as he fights extradition to the U.S.. Jamil notes that the cyber incident reporting bill didn't make it into the defense authorization act, as mentioned earlier. He is one of the few cybersecurity buffs who isn't especially disappointed. Maury and I disagree about a much-ballyhooed group of companies claiming to combat artificial intelligence bias in hiring. I'll believe it when they actually expose their recommendations to public scrutiny. For those who think bias in content moderation is not a thing, try spending ten minutes with this right-wing French candidate's very effective campaign ad. Then ask yourself why exactly YouTube thought it wasn't fit for children. My guess is that it was the ad's effectiveness that YouTube really disapproved of. Dave and I puzzle over the Biden administration's unsatisfying “Initiative for Democratic Renewal”—a big international get-together that got only cursory attention in the U.S., perhaps because its theme is still a little hard to find. And, finally, just to give me an excuse to publicize my latest Cybertoonz comic, Jamil asks for Western militaries what it means to “impose a cost” on ransomware gangs.

India may ban private cryptocurrencies and launch a central bank digital currency, according to a parliament bulletin released on Tuesday. The Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill, 2021, is among the proposed laws that will be taken up when the parliament meets for its winter session starting November 29. According to the bulletin, the bill seeks “To create a facilitative framework for the creation of the official digital currency to be issued by the Reserve Bank of India. The Bill also seeks to prohibit all private cryptocurrencies in India, however, it allows for certain exceptions to promote the underlying technology of cryptocurrency and its uses.” Apple has filed a lawsuit against NSO Group and its parent company to hold it accountable for the surveillance and targeting of Apple users, the iPhone maker said in a press release. The complaint provides new information on how NSO Group infected victims' devices with its Pegasus spyware. To prevent further abuse and harm to its users, Apple is also seeking a permanent injunction to ban NSO Group from using any Apple software, services, or devices. NSO Group creates sophisticated, state-sponsored surveillance technology that allows its highly targeted spyware to surveil its victims. These attacks are aimed at a very small number of users, and they impact people across multiple platforms, including iOS and Android. SenseTime, one of China's biggest AI solution providers, is a step closer to its initial public offering, according to TechCrunch. SenseTime has received regulatory approval to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Founded in 2014, SenseTime was christened as one of China's four ‘AI Dragons' alongside Megvii, CloudWalk, and Yitu. Atom Bank, an online bank in the UK, has introduced a four-day workweek for its 430 staff without cutting their pay, BBC reports. Employees now work 34 hours over four days and get Monday or Friday off, when previously they clocked 37.5 hours across the whole week. Inspired by the Covid-19 pandemic, the move will help retain staff and improve their wellbeing. However, employees will have to work longer hours on the days they are coming to the office.

We Can't Run a Twelfth-Century Regime Without WhatsApp!

The Cyberlaw Podcast

Back at last from hiatus, the podcast finds a host of hot issues to cover. Matthew Heiman walks us through all the ways that China and the U.S. found to get in each other's way on technology. China's new data security and privacy laws take effect this fall, and in keeping with a longstanding theme of the podcast—that privacy law is mostly about protecting the privilege of the powerful—we muse on the ways that legal innovations in the West have empowered China's rulers. The SEC is tightening the screws on Chinese companies that want to list on American exchanges. Meanwhile, SenseTime is going forward with a $2 billion IPO in Hong Kong despite being subject to the stiffest possible Commerce Department sanctions. Talk about decoupling! In Washington, remarkably, a bipartisan breach notification law is moving “We Can't Run a Twelfth-Century Regime Without WhatsApp!” through both House and Senate. Michael Ellis explains the unorthodox (but hardly unprecedented) path the law is likely to take—a “preconference” followed by attachment to the defense authorization bill scheduled to pass this fall. I ask Brian Egan for the tech fallout from the fall of the U.S.-backed regime in Afghanistan. All things considered, it's modest. Despite hand-wringing over data left behind, that data may not be really accessible. Google isn't likely to turn over government emails to the new regime, if only because US sanctions make that legally risky. The Taliban's use of WhatsApp is likely to suffer from the same sanctions barrier. I predict a Taliban complaint that it's being forced to run a thirteenth century regime with twelfth century technology. Meanwhile, Texas Republicans are on a roll, as Democrats forced to return to the State House sit on their hands. They've adopted a creative and aggressive antiabortion law that has proven a challenge to tech companies, which responded by canceling tech services for pro-life groups and promising to defend gig workers who are caught up in litigation. Texas has kept pace, adopting a bill that limits Silicon Valley censorship of political speech; it raises many of the same issues as the Florida statute, but without the embarrassing prostration before the Disney theme park empire. I ask whether Texas could have used the same tactics for its interpretation of Section 230 that it used in the abortion bill—authorizing private suits but not government enforcement. Such tactics work when there is a real possibility that the Supreme Court will overturn some settled circuit rulings, and section 230 is ripe for exactly that. Matthew Heiman and I debate whether the Justice Department's dropping of several Chinese visa fraud cases heralds a retrenchment in the department's China Initiative. Michael and I dig into the Apple decision to alienate the Guardians of Privacy in an effort to do something about child sex abuse material on iPhones—and Apple's recent decision to alienate the rest of the country by casting doubt on whether it would ever do something about child sex abuse material on its phones. Finally, in quick hits, Brian doubts the significance of claims that the Israeli government is launching an investigation of NSO Group over spyware abuse. Michael picks apart the Cyberspace Solarium Commission's report card on Congress's progress implementing its recommendations. And Brian highlights the UK's new and much tougher version of CFIUS, the National Security and Investment Act 2021. I turn that into career advice for our listeners. And more!

Chinese Start-Up Rokid Aims To Be "Apple+Google" Of The AI Era

China Money Podcast - Audio Episodes

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 16, 2018 37:36

When talking about his business, Misa Zhu, founder of Chinese artificial intelligence start-up Rokid, frequently uses two words not often associated with tech: gorgeous and patient. That's because making high-end AI products that are both technologically superior and beautiful to look at is key to Rokid, a company Zhu likes to describe as "a product company for the consumer." Patience is another key value for the Hangzhou-based start-up, which in January raised a nearly US$100 million series C round led by the most patient of capital providers: Singapore's national wealth fund Temasek Holdings. "(If you are building) a 100-year business, why rush?" the 42-year-old former Alibaba research lab chief told China Money Network during a one-hour interview at the company's headquarters in a lush, attractive compound near Hangzhou's West Lake. He likes to call this office, surrounded by greenery and a small pond, "the jungle," and the hundreds of staffers "monkeys." "Nobody tells you what to do here. You need to figure out what you are passionate about," he said. It takes courage - and carries with it a certain degree of risk - to "be patient" in the age of super-fast business and technology cycles in today's China. Rokid's Founder Misa Zhu Speaks To China Money Network For the smart speaker market that Rokid is competing in, the industry landscape is shifting daily. Tencent Holdings Ltd., for example, announced that it would launch its own Tingting smart speaker to the public on April 20. Alibaba Group, Baidu Inc, Xiaomi Inc and JD.com Inc have all released self-branded smart speakers. Not to mention numerous independent start-ups like Mobvoi, which China Money Network spoke to last year, that are eyeing the Chinese smart speaker market. Around 350,000 smart speakers were sold in China last year, according to market research firm GfK SE. Compared to other Chinese AI start-ups, Rokid's "patience" is in great contrast to those that are ultra aggressive in both product development and fundraising. According to China Money Network's China Unicorn Ranking, there are eight unicorns (private companies valued at US$1 billion or more) in the AI sector. Rokid, according to Zhu, is not a unicorn yet as he doesn't "want to be a unicorn so fast" to put "great pressure on everybody." By contrast, Beijing-based Chinese AI company SenseTime raised a US$600 million round led by Alibaba earlier this month at a valuation of US$4.5 billion. Another company, Face++, raised US$460 million led by China State-Owned Assets Venture Investment Fund last October. Zhu said that he does not feel "pressured," as "it is still very early stage" for the AI industry. Rokid, as an AI product company for consumers, has the potential to one day become something like "Apple plus Google," because everything we use will be "smart" in the future. "In ten-years time, AI technology will become ubiquitous. There will be smart cars, smart TV, smart everything. The consumer market will be the biggest AI market, and the most successful AI company will be the consumer product company," Zhu predicts. "For now, we just focus on building gorgeous products." Rokid's smart speakers do indeed look different from the pack. The Alien, the company's first smart speaker product released in 2016, is shaped like a drop of water. The Pebble, Rokid's mass-market smart speaker product, looks like a nicely rounded "pebble". Both products are, frankly, gorgeous. Read an interview Q&A below. Also subscribe to China Money Podcast for free in the iTunes store, or subscribe to our weekly newsletter. Q: Rokid wants to be an AI company that's patient and doing business for the long-term. What would a successful AI company look like in ten years, in your opinion? A: Rokid is more of an user interface company than a pure AI company. To be exact, we are a product company to the consumer with a focus on user interface, which means connecting end-users with high technol...
