Trump’s tariffs just split the AI market in two (Ad)

Trump’s tariff just split the AI market – among others – in two. One group of AI companies—the ones relying on cheap foreign hardware—just saw their costs shoot through the roof. For the other group of AI companies, they were just handed a massive competitive advantage. Make no mistake, AI as a whole is still a game-changer for the global economy. But within the AI sector, Trump’s tariffs have created a huge divergence.

There are those AI companies that will rise to the top… And those that will sink to the bottom.
