Al Jazeera

Authorities in the United States have charged two Chinese citizens with shipping tens of millions of dollars' worth of advanced Nvidia chips to China in breach of export controls. Chuan Geng and Shiwei Yang are alleged to have "knowingly and willfully" exported the graphic processing units (GPUs) used to power artificial intelligence without authorisation from October 2022 to July 2025, the US Department of Justice said on Tuesday. Export records indicate that Geng and Yang, both 28, organised at least 21 shipments through their El Monte, California-based company ALX Solutions Inc to companies in Singapore and Malaysia, the Justice Department said. The exports included a December 2024 shipment of Nvidia H100 GPUs – described as the most powerful chip on the market – that was "falsely labelled" and had not obtained the necessary licence from the US Department of Commerce, the Justice Department said. According to prosecutors, ALX Solutions received payments from firms in Hong Kong and China, including a 1m sum from a China-based company in January 2024, rather than the companies that accepted the shipments.
