美国财政部拟全面禁止美国人投资中国AI公司

Why we picked it

财政部把对中国AI的投资禁令从大模型扩到所有AI项目,还加了芯片和生物科技,做跨境投资的朋友得看看新规细节。

美国财政部提出新规,将禁止美国人投资任何开发AI系统的中国公司,现行规则只限制最强大的中国AI模型。新规还把高带宽内存、光子芯片和抗辐射芯片列入禁投芯片类型,并新增高超音速武器和生物科技两个禁投领域。覆盖范围从中国扩大到俄罗斯、伊朗、朝鲜和古巴。购买公开股票、指数基金或不超过200万美元的小额基金份额仍被允许,规则主要影响风险投资和私募股权交易。财政部不会公布被禁公司名单,投资者需自行审查每笔交易,否则面临罚款和强制出售。

The U.S. Treasury proposed barring Americans from investing in Chinese companies that develop any AI system.

Under the current rule, Americans can’t invest in the most powerful Chinese AI models, but they can still fund smaller AI projects if they report the deal to Treasury.

The new proposal would ban all of those AI investments, and it would also add high-bandwidth memory, photonic chips and radiation-hardened chips to the chip types Americans can’t invest in.

The proposal would also ban investments in two new areas: hypersonic weapons and biotech, including brain-computer interfaces and automated lab software.

Today the rule covers only China, but the proposal adds Russia, Iran, North Korea and Cuba.

Buying public stocks, index funds or small fund stakes up to $2M would stay allowed, so the rule mainly hits venture and private equity deals.

Treasury won’t publish a list of banned companies, so investors must check each deal themselves or risk fines and being forced to sell.
