美国商务部拟封堵中企经海外数据中心获取受限 Nvidia 芯片的渠道
美国商务部要堵住中国公司租用海外数据中心间接用上受限 Nvidia 芯片的路子。做跨境算力、云服务或者在国内训练大模型的朋友都该看看,这会直接影响你们能买什么卡、在哪部署。
美国商务部正在准备关闭一项漏洞,该漏洞允许中国 AI 公司通过境外数据中心访问受限的 Nvidia 芯片。据知情人士透露,新规将针对把 Nvidia 受限 GPU 部署在第三国数据中心、再向中国企业出租算力的模式。
这一做法此前是中国公司绕开美国出口管制的主要路径之一:芯片本身不出售给中国企业,但中国客户通过远程调用境外数据中心里的算力,实际使用了被限制的 Nvidia 硬件。商务部的新措施预计会把这类"算力转租"也纳入管制范围。
对在中国开展业务的 AI 公司和云服务商而言,获取美国高端 GPU 的合规渠道将进一步收窄,可能加速国产替代方案和国产芯片的采购。
The Commerce Department is preparing to close a loophole that allows Chinese AI firms to access restricted Nvidia chips through overseas data centers, according to people familiar with the process.
