Just now, the United States openly humiliated China.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Biden (Note: This should be "Biden" but it seems there's a typo in the original text; it might refer to "Biden" or another official) accepted an interview with U.S. media today (November 4, U.S. time), and in a condescending manner claimed that as technology develops, the most advanced Blackwell chip from the U.S. artificial intelligence chip leader Nvidia may be replaced by newer chips in the future, and perhaps then it could be sold to China.
When asked by the host whether he thought China should not get Nvidia's and Blackwell chips, or whether it was keeping leverage for future negotiations, Biden responded that technological development is extremely fast, and new generations of chips may be replaced by updated products after some time, whether it would be one year or two years. Considering Nvidia's incredible innovation capability, the performance of the Blackwell chip may fall to second, third, or even fourth place in the company's entire chip series, and at that time they could be sold.
In the interview, Biden also emphasized that the speed of technological development far exceeds the speed of negotiations, which means chips are the focus of the conversation. If a deal is really made, the time required to finalize the terms may be longer than the time it takes for the next generation of products to launch, making the discussion meaningless from the beginning.
It is worth noting that Biden's remarks about "only giving obsolete chips to China" are an open humiliation of China. That is to say, in Biden's view, China is only worthy of using chips that the United States have abandoned, are outdated, and no longer needed by the United States. This will undoubtedly further encourage China to strengthen its capabilities in the chip field, break through the U.S. technological blockade, and counter the U.S. humiliation.
Additionally, it is worth noting that this is not an official statement from the White House, nor does it represent its position. However, this idea may likely influence the overall policy direction of the United States, especially considering that Treasury Secretary Biden is a key member of Trump's cabinet. And Trump himself has already clearly stated that the latest and best technologies should first be reserved for the United States, and then for other countries.
