China proposes controlling exports of 40 technologies: AI, chips, solar energy, and biomedicine. What would be banned, and what would be subject to restrictions?

The draft from two Chinese ministries distinguishes between technologies whose export it proposes to ban and others that could be restricted, including certain large AI models, chip design, polysilicon, and advanced therapies. The proposal is not yet a regulation in force, nor does it identify specific models. We also review China’s stated reasons and the context of technological competition with the United States, without presenting a causal link as fact.
