hearing <\/a>will focus on AI innovation, affordability, and U.S. technological leadership. Warren asked Huang to discuss Nvidia\u2019s China business and its position on export controls. Those controls restrict sales of advanced American technology to foreign markets.\u00a0<\/p>\nPolicymakers continue debating how far the U.S. should limit AI chip exports. Nvidia remains central to that debate because its chips power many advanced AI systems. Warren said Huang should answer questions in a public setting.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI appreciate Mr. Huang\u2019s response, but the American people deserve answers in a public forum,\u201d she said. Warren said Nvidia sits at the center of questions involving AI, economic competition, and national security. She also criticized Huang\u2019s foreign and political engagements. Her statement cited his attendance at a Mar-a-Lago dinner and meetings in China.<\/p>\n

Huang defends Nvidia\u2019s AI role<\/h2>\n
In his letter to Warren, Huang said Nvidia appreciated the committee\u2019s focus on American AI leadership. He wrote that Nvidia built and delivered the first AI supercomputer to American researchers over a decade ago. Huang said the company has supported researchers, universities, startups, and businesses since then. He also said Nvidia remains committed to U.S. leadership in AI-related technologies. However, he told Warren he would be \u201cunable to attend\u201d the hearing.<\/p>\n
Huang added that American AI leadership requires continued attention. \u201cAmerican leadership in AI technologies cannot be taken for granted,\u201d he wrote. He also said Nvidia believes in the American system and remains confident about the future. Huang then invited Warren and committee members to Nvidia\u2019s Santa Clara headquarters. He said they could discuss Nvidia\u2019s technology and the American AI ecosystem there.<\/p>\n

Export controls remain under scrutiny<\/h2>\n
Huang has repeatedly urged U.S. officials to let American firms compete in China and other markets. He sits on President Donald Trump\u2019s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. During Trump\u2019s May trip to Beijing, Huang joined a group of CEOs who accompanied the president. The trip included a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. AI chip export policy remained one of the issues surrounding the visit.<\/p>\n
In December, Huang told reporters that U.S. firms should offer competitive chips to China. \u201cWe should ensure that American companies have the best and the most and first,\u201d he said. He also said American companies should offer the most competitive chips possible to the Chinese market. Warren criticized those comments at the time. She said Huang\u2019s lobbying could help China\u2019s military and weaken American technology leadership.Nvidia has not announced a new appearance before the Senate Banking Committee. <\/p>\n
The Thursday hearing will proceed without Huang\u2019s testimony. Lawmakers are expected to keep reviewing AI export rules and Nvidia\u2019s overseas business. The committee has not announced whether it will issue another invitation. Huang\u2019s letter left open the option of private discussions at Nvidia\u2019s California headquarters.<\/p>\n
