美逮捕涉嫌向中国走私3亿美元英伟达芯片的科技公司CEO
US arrests tech CEO accused of smuggling $300M in Nvidia chips into China
The US has arrested another suspect accused of smuggling high-end computer servers containing export-controlled Nvidia chips into China.
美国逮捕了另一名涉嫌将含有受出口管制英伟达芯片的高端计算机服务器走私至中国的嫌疑人。
In a press release on Thursday, the Department of Justice accused 38-year-old Greg Lui of using false paperwork to mask shipments of servers worth more than $300 million that he allegedly knew were ultimately destined for China.
司法部在周四的一份新闻稿中指控38岁的Greg Lui使用虚假文件掩盖价值超过3亿美元的服务器 shipments,据称他明知这些货物最终目的地是中国。
As the CEO of Earthmade Computer, Lui allegedly conspired with freight-forwarding firms in South Asian countries like Malaysia and Singapore to illegally divert chip shipments into China, including Nvidia’s A100 GPUs and H100 GPUs, the FBI’s indictment alleged. These are not Nvidia’s most advanced chips. However, the chips can process large amounts of data and train large language models, which the US fears could pose national security risks if China suddenly gets access to enough chips to drastically advance its AI or strengthen its military.
联邦调查局(FBI)的起诉书指控,作为Earthmade Computer的首席执行官,Lui涉嫌与马来西亚和新加坡等南亚国家的货运代理公司串通,非法将芯片运输转入中国,其中包括英伟达的A100 GPU和H100 GPU。这些并非英伟达最先进的芯片。然而,这些芯片能够处理大量数据并训练大型语言模型,美国担心如果中国突然获得足够多的芯片以大幅推进其人工智能或加强军事力量,可能会构成国家安全风险。
