Two U.S. Congress members are calling on President Donald Trump's administration to consider restricting the export of artificial intelligence chips made by Nvidia , alleging Chinese AI firm DeepSeek has relied on them.

Nvidia said in a statement it is "ready to work with the administration as it pursues its own approach to AI."

Two members of the U.S. Congress, Republican John Moolenaar and Democrat Raja Krishnamoorthi, are urging President Donald Trump's administration to consider placing restrictions on the export of artificial intelligence (AI) chips manufactured by Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA).
