export bans are going to have the opposite effect as intended. perhaps on purpose. all they're doing is help boost the chinese gpu and chip industry. if they kept selling nvidia to china they would have been kept reliant on US tech.

China was already on track to develop its domestic chip production industry. In the long term, this will just hasten that process. The interesting question is what happens in the short term. I keep hoping there's a master plan behind these sanctions, leading up to some sort of grand deal, but I'm not sure.

Only in the short & possibly medium-term. Everything about China's past development trajectory tells us their long-term goal was already to be technologically self-sufficient.
