The F.T.C.’s lawsuit is a “deliberately experimental case that seeks to extend the boundaries of merger enforcement”

“This is such an extreme and unfounded reaction to a small deal that many are worrying about what an F.T.C. win would mean for start-ups” https://t.co/TN17pvG5Wy
"In the weeks before the House and the Senate ended 13 months of arguments and passed the $280 billion CHIPS and Science Act, #China’s main, state-supported chip maker cleared a major technological hurdle that delivered a bit of a shock to the world."https://t.co/DFtJGiJRRZ

Possibly the West’s biggest hammer against enemies is sanctions on advanced technology; just ask Russia.

But China is equaling the West in semiconductors now. THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING—BEWARE! https://t.co/ZO67w21tar
China Has Leapfrogged the U.S. in Key Technologies. Can a New Law Help? https://t.co/oLH4A3Gl20 if Congress wants answers they should put BIS bureaucrats under oath and ask them about the loopholes created for SMIC

Perhaps because #China steals #America’s tech & IP blueprints, manufacturing them first, & beating to market?

Just a thought...

The $280 billion CHIPS and Science bill is a breakthrough in industrial policy. It is also frightfully late, and China didn’t sit around waiting for its passage. It made progress on the key semiconductor manufacturing technology that had stymied it. https://t.co/e8vcdfpEcv

On SMIC’s intriguing leap to 7nm, without access to EUV. 1) So far, made for mining cryptocurrency; 2) It’s been based on, or stolen from TSMC; 3) No one knows about the yield and the potential to mass-produce. https://t.co/xQ5g1nEI2v

Impressive progress, but looking ahead, China isn't going to able to make commercially viable 5nm chips without UAV anytime soon. China needs ASML's machines or it's out of luck. https://t.co/HwhFwIz5gh

stolen or not, 7nm is impressive. https://t.co/5VFQzEBKpT pic.twitter.com/XMKZAQMHcF

It's great that the CHIPS Act passed (and amusing that China is upset about it - guess it means we're on the right track), now Congress should fix immigration so we have enough talent to compete

I'm not sure what David Sanger is trying to say here by "manufacture a semiconductor"—but has China found a way to build photolithography machines that circumvent the export ban on those made by ASML (which has virtual monopoly on the most advanced tech)?https://t.co/wYy6osi2vZ

"So China has both a commercial and a geopolitical motive to make the world’s fastest chips, and the United States has a competitive motive to keep Beijing from getting the technology to do so. It is the ultimate 21st-century arms race." https://t.co/SpKF3a3rRu

This piece’s framing is essentially: China is going to overtake the US because Congress was too slow to give away money to semiconductor firms. That’s terrible framing. https://t.co/78zoNmxmea

"After reverse-engineering the Chinese-made chip, they concluded that it used circuitry that was only seven nanometers wide. As recently as 2020, Chinese manufacturers had struggled to get below 40 nanometers."https://t.co/PvOXVMrnJg

Bravo to Congress for passing the CHIPS act. But @SangerNYT notes that China meanwhile has developed a new chip that appears to be a big step forward for it. https://t.co/YQp1GvIVDS As @ericschmidt says, Congress moves at political speed;

China at commercial speed.
