Major cloud providers could get key role in AI chip access outside the US, sources say

The US government is reportedly planning to enlist companies like Google and Microsoft in restricting Chinese access to AI chips.

The aim is to prevent China from leveraging AI for military use or cyberattacks. The rules would also allow companies to offer AI capabilities overseas without a license. The plan has yet to be finalized and could still undergo changes before implementation.
