I mean, in what other way would he do it, than the single dumbest way imaginable?
Heartwarming: the worst industry possible has a correct take on something for once.
AI industry says
I don’t care.
They funded his campaign. Serves them right.
Right! It seems like a half ass attempt at improving PR too
AI industry says
Aww, did a wittle wepard eat your pwecious wittle face off?
He simply cannot do anything but in the dumbest way.
Don’t worry, TACO.
Trump shitting on the AI industry has a certain poetry about it
Would be great if it was just the AI industry, but it’s simply expanding what tech is subject to tariffs, so its the people that pay the price. Couldn’t afford that RAM already, so I guess it doesn’t matter right?
It would be so fucking funny if Trump crashed the AI “industry”
While I’m sure the end result will be worse for us in a lot of other ways, one thing i found oddly positive is how his stupid decisions are going to fuck things up:
Most absurdly, given the priorities of Trump’s AI Action Plan, that tariff approach would cost the US about $90 billion annually in GDP losses and cause about 20 percent of data center projects planned through 2030 to be delayed or canceled

Fuck all of them.
Trump is finally waking up to the deep, bipartisan unpopularity of AI and AI datacentres. Aside: the “single dumbest way imaginable” is the GOP brand.
He thinks this is a quick way to reduce the US’s $40T debt. It won’t.
To be fair, he probably asked AI what to do, so yeah.
