I would expect that the bigger problem is going to be the actual movement of chips. They'll probably to keep the focus on the affair rather than actually interrogating the degree to which sanctions were violated. "Tech CEO is a dick to his family" hasn't exactly ended the career of anyone else so long as the money keeps moving. But given how much the domestic AI push has used hawkishness about China to justify itself there could be real problems keeping congress at bay if it turns into both an anti-AI CEO issue and an anti-China issue.

that was my general line of thought. a lot of the AI push have been moved along by ‘we can’t loose to China’ so Huang giving so much stuff to China is definitely going to make this a lot messier of a debacle
