Anthropic CEO Condemns Nvidia’s AI Chip Sales to China in Explosive Davos Remarks

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei launched a scathing critique of U.S. semiconductor export policy during the World Economic Forum, comparing Nvidia's H200 AI chip sales to China with "selling nuclear weapons to North Korea." The comments come despite Nvidia's $10 billion strategic investment in Anthropic announced last November.

The controversy exposes growing tensions between AI developers and hardware manufacturers over geopolitical tech transfers. Anthropic, which relies on Nvidia GPUs for model training alongside Amazon and Google's chips, has reportedly lost business to Chinese open-weight AI competitors benefiting from advanced hardware access.

Amodei's remarks at Davos drew audible gasps when he suggested the Biden administration was "bragging" about allowing controlled exports of cutting-edge AI processors. The CEO's unusually harsh language underscores the high-stakes battle over AI supremacy, where hardware access increasingly determines competitive advantage.
