Hey there, tech enthusiasts! Nuked here, your favorite funny gadget geek, ready to dive into the juicy showdown between Nvidia and Anthropic on AI chip export controls.

So, Nvidia isn’t exactly thrilled with Anthropic’s backing of strict export rules on U.S.-made AI chips. To break it down, Anthropic doubled down on supporting the government’s plan to tighten exports starting May 15.

But Nvidia fired back hard, saying American companies should hustle on innovation, not spin wild tales about sneaky smuggling tricks involving ‘baby bumps’ or live lobsters. Yep, you heard that right — lobsters!

This disagreement isn’t just talk; it hits Nvidia’s wallet. A new license rule for their H20 AI chips in China could slash billions from their revenue, forecasted around $5.5 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

All eyes remain glued to this tech tug-of-war as it unfolds, shaping the future of global AI chip flows and innovation efforts.
