The “AI Diffusion” Rule
On January 13, 2025, the U.S. Government announced that it submitted the Interim Final Rule, “Export Control Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion,” or the IFR, for publication in the Federal Register. The rule published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2025 at 90 Fed. Reg. 4544.
After a 120-day delayed compliance period, the IFR will, unless modified, impose a worldwide licensing requirement on all products classified under Export Control Classification Numbers, or ECCNs, 3A090.a, 4A090.a, or corresponding .z ECCNs, including all related software and technology. Any system that incorporates one or more of the covered integrated circuits, or ICs, (including but not limited to NVIDIA DGX, HGX, and MGX systems) will be covered by the new licensing requirement. The licensing requirement will include future NVIDIA ICs, boards, or systems classified with ECCN 3A090.a or 4A090.a, or corresponding .z ECCNs, achieving certain total processing performance and/or performance density.
Unless one of the new license exceptions is available to specific transactions, the worldwide licensing requirements will apply to the following NVIDIA products, and any others we develop that meet the characteristics of 3A090.a or 4A090.a, including but not limited to: A100, A800, H100, H200, H800, B100, B200, GB200, L4, L40S, and RTX 6000 Ada.
The IFR is subject to a notice and public comment period of 120 days from publication, i.e., by May 15, 2025. Unless the IFR is modified, in whole or in part, or withdrawn altogether by the incoming Trump Administration, exporters, reexports, and transferors are required to begin compliance with the IFR’s licensing, reporting, and other requirements on May 15, 2025.
The Company supports U.S. leadership in innovation by providing cutting-edge solutions, working to make American advancements a global standard, and constantly pursuing rapid progress. The Company supports creating new datacenters in the United States and promotes efforts to develop the necessary infrastructure. The Company also supports the safe and responsible development and deployment of all AI-powered systems and will provide feedback on the IFR during the notice and comment period.
The “Additional Due Diligence Measures” Rule
On January 16, 2025, the Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, published a rule entitled “Implementation of Additional Due Diligence Measures for Advanced Computing Integrated Circuits.” The rule is intended to reduce the diversion of ICs to unauthorized end uses or end users that meet the control parameters of ECCN 3A090 by end users who misrepresent the performance capabilities of their ICs to the foundries that manufacture them or the companies that assemble the ICs, or OSATs, into packages. The rule requires additional diligence for foundries and OSATs to verify technical parameters, although approved IC designers are considered a reliable source to verify technical parameters of the applicable advanced logic ICs. NVIDIA Corporation is an approved IC designer and thus the rule is not expected to have an impact on our operations or on product sales to China.

actionable tokens ; gemini ai says:"can a token represent an actionable event and action?
Yes, absolutely! A token can indeed represent an actionable event and action, particularly in the context of blockchain and smart contracts. Here's how:
1. Tokens as Triggers:
A token can be designed to trigger a specific action or event when certain conditions are met. For example:
Access Control: An access token grants access to a resource or service when presented.
Payment Systems: A token can represent a payment, triggering the transfer of funds or release of goods/services.
Supply Chain Management: A token can track the movement of goods, triggering actions like updating inventory or notifying stakeholders at each stage.
2. Smart Contracts and Automation:
Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms directly written into code.
Tokens can interact with smart contracts to trigger predefined actions automatically. For example:
Decentralized Finance (DeFi): A token can represent a loan agreement, triggering automatic interest payments or loan liquidation based on predefined conditions.
Gaming and NFTs: A token can represent in-game items or characters, triggering actions like transferring ownership or unlocking special features.
Voting and Governance: A token can represent voting rights, allowing token holders to trigger actions like casting votes or proposing changes within a decentralized organization.
3. Real-World Examples:
Security tokens: These represent ownership of an asset (like stocks or bonds) and can trigger actions like dividend payments or voting rights.
Utility tokens: These grant access to a particular service or platform, triggering actions like unlocking features or accessing content.
NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens): These represent unique digital or physical assets and can trigger actions like proving ownership, transferring ownership, or accessing exclusive experiences.
Key Concepts:
Tokenization: The process of converting rights, assets, or actions into digital tokens.
Blockchain: A decentralized and secure ledger that records token transactions and smart contract executions.
Programmability: Tokens and smart contracts can be programmed with specific rules and actions, enabling automation and complex behaviors.
Benefits:
Automation: Tokens can automate processes and reduce the need for intermediaries.
Transparency: Blockchain provides a transparent record of token transactions and actions.
Efficiency: Token-based systems can streamline processes and reduce friction in various applications.
By combining tokens with smart contracts, developers can create powerful systems where tokens represent not just static assets but also dynamic actions and events, leading to innovative applications across various industries."
and then justia patents shows 8's newest patent:"Conferencing and meeting implementations with advanced features
Patent number: 12200172
Abstract: Meeting and conferencing systems and methods are implemented in a variety of manners. Consistent with one example embodiment, an audio conference system includes communications circuitry and a caller interface, each associated with setting up or managing the audio conference. Menu options may be provided to validate or authenticate incoming telephony calls. In response to a selection of the menu options, an incoming telephony call may be prompted to select a callback number, and then the system monitors for a trigger event. A participant is contacted in response to detecting the trigger event, and the contacted participant is then placed into the audio conference.

hr for accelerators.......when to turn the cooling on and off , or spin up additional remote resources to carry on the work?
management of the network and it's constituents is a key to optimization of the work flow and reliability of same.
parallel messaging instructions need to be granularly correct. data migration secure. you desire edge but maybe other assets are primed and ready to assume the work. the edge of the world with respect to space /extraterrestial work changes as the earth rotates. such shines, more heat and therefore more cooling might be required, but with fast enough internodal qpu communications, won't/can't skip a beat. wags.
spacex starship, the booster maintained communications and management, while the starship part lost communications, management, and blewup in some order thereof. elon already knows what he thinks the problem is/was and how to fix it, including the exact location.......do you think he's got a digital twin in his basement? i do.
