But to be successful in this goal – with all its national security implications - she made it clear that more funding was needed, and a deeper relationship with tech companies would be required going forward.
Moving onto the specifics of improved cooperation with US and allied tech companies, Raimondo said she had noticed “Nvidia for example” was slicing chip specs “just below that [specification] cut.” This was traditionally how export controls worked, admitted Raimondo, but said she was seeking “a new way to have a continuous dialogue with industry where our Engineers can go toe-to-toe with their engineers, and we go to them and say our intent is to deny China technologies that can do XYZ.” In other words, sanctions may be readjusted somehow to target capabilities rather than levels of performance.
The above speech from Raimondo is a clear indicator that the government wants US firms to follow not just the letter, but the spirit of the rules concerning AI and computing export controls.
However, she said her department was “eyes wide open about the threat from China.” She implored tech companies to “work together so your businesses are strong and lead the world, but also so our national security is protected.”
Reuters reports that Taiwan Economy Minister Wang Mei-hua will greet a delegation tasked with explaining the complicated new US rules to the many important tech companies on the democratically-governed island.
The US officials, who were not named by Taiwan’s Central News Agency, will visit next month and concentrate their efforts around important chip hubs in Hsinchu and Tainan.
