Andrew Curran says Jensen Huang scandal makes stronger chip export controls near certain

Andrew Curran, writing on X, says the November 2026 midterm results already made stronger AI chip export controls almost certain, and that the Jensen Huang event makes them more certain still.

Curran says an AI Freeze bill has long had strong support from some Republicans, though he has been skeptical it would pass.

The post follows reports that lawmakers in both parties are pushing for tighter export controls and probes of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Huang admitted an affair with a woman US intelligence accused of spying for China.
