The GPU Black Market Washington Can't Shut Down

Original: The GPU Black Market That Washington Can't Shut Down

A new report examines how advanced GPUs, despite strict US export controls aimed at China, continue to flow through grey-market channels that Washington has struggled to close. The piece argues that enforcement gaps, resellers, and smuggling routes have blunted the impact of the restrictions, raising questions about whether export controls can actually contain the spread of high-end AI chips.

Why now: Ongoing US export restrictions on advanced chips to China keep the effectiveness of sanctions and enforcement under scrutiny.
