What it is
The Bureau of Industry and Security administers the escalating controls (Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Dec 2024, and 2025 actions) restricting exports of advanced GPUs (A100/H100 and successors), HBM, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment to China. In 2025 policy whipsawed: an 'AI Diffusion Rule' tiering global access was rescinded, an H20 sales ban to China was imposed then partially relaxed under a ~15% revenue-sharing arrangement, and entity-list and end-use rules expanded. BIS is the single most powerful control point over who can build frontier AI, making it a true geopolitical chokepoint.
