SCALE Act establishes export controls on AI hardware to entities of concern, focusing on limiting exports to adversaries.
The SCALE Act, or Semiconductor Controls Adjusted to Limit Exports Act, mandates the Secretary of Commerce to establish performance metrics for AI hardware produced by entities of concern. These metrics will assess the capability of AI hardware indigenously produced by entities of concern, the aggregate capability of all entities of concern, and the total amount of AI hardware within countries of concern or owned by entities of concern.
The filed bill text is too short for analysis.
