A bipartisan group of 23 US lawmakers from the Select Committee on China on 28 January alleged that advanced Nvidia chips exported to China are being used to boost Chinese military capabilities.

The committee claimed that Nvidia’s chips are “powering China’s military” and called it a security failure by the US government.

The lawmakers said Nvidia supplied chips to a Chinese firm, DeepkSeek AI, which “ended up supporting an AI model used by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA)", raising concerns about military-civil fusion and cybersecurity risks.
