Documents have surfaced revealing state-linked Chinese entities using Amazon cloud services or similar services to access advanced AI chips and capabilities banned by the US.
The race to develop and deploy the most powerful artificial intelligence models has rapidly escalated over the past couple of years and the United States is making sure that China can’t catch up using US-made technology.
However, a new Reuters report revealed that state-affiliated Chinese entities have been using cloud services from Amazon or its competitors to gain access to these banned advanced semiconductor chips and AI capabilities.
According to Reuters, a review of over 50 public tender documents showed that at least 11 Chinese entities have sought access to restricted US technologies or cloud services.
