Exclusive: US tackles loopholes in curbs on AI chip exports to China

- The U.S. is updating rules to prevent American chipmakers from selling AI chips to China that skirt existing restrictions.
- These updated rules will expand the scope of restricted chips and demand reporting for certain shipments.
- The move aims to prevent U.S. technology from strengthening China's military but risks complicating U.S.-China diplomatic efforts.
- Consumer chips are exempt, but the new rules aim to close loopholes and evolve with technology advancements.
