How Trump’s New Tariffs Could Increase AI Development Costs

AI-related stocks have been hit after U.S. President Donald Trump announced broad tariffs on foreign goods, signaling potential trouble for the industry. Major players in artificial intelligence are currently pouring massive amounts of money into building data centers to power and train AI systems. According to analysts, the tariffs will push those already high costs even higher. AI servers and other datacenter gear are mostly imported. That includes essential infrastructure like cooling systems and power units, meaning the new tariffs will raise prices on many fronts. While chips themselves won’t be taxed if shipped as individual units, most arrive inside…

AI is Reducing Billing Errors, But Incorporating This Automation is Challenging

AI is quickly becoming a practical solution for healthcare providers aiming to fix billing problems and cut down on administrative overload. According to a recent survey, about a third of healthcare professionals have already used AI-powered billing tools, and over half anticipate doing so in the next two years. Common billing challenges include denied insurance claims and slow processing times, with many healthcare workers spending over 20 hours a month correcting mistakes. This not only wastes time but also adds stress for both staff and patients. AI tools help by automating coding checks, catching errors early, and speeding up the…

China’s Embrace of Open-Source AI Could Be Short-Lived

China’s recent rise in open-source AI has caught global attention, especially after DeepSeek released a powerful and freely available language model earlier this year. While some assumed this signaled China outpacing the U.S. in AI, Meta’s AI chief Yann LeCun clarified that open-source models, regardless of origin, are now leading the field, surpassing even some private ones. Top tech figures in China, like Eddie Wu of Alibaba and Pony Ma of Tencent, are embracing the open-source approach, where AI code can be used, shared, or improved by anyone. The Chinese government appears to support this strategy. In January, DeepSeek’s CEO…

AI Imaging Equals Ultrasound Imaging in Guiding Surgeons During Heart Procedures

A recent study has found that patients with significant blockages in three key coronary arteries had similar outcomes whether treated with stent placement guided by ultrasound imaging or a new AI-powered technique. The research, called FLAVOUR II, reached its main objective by showing no major differences in survival, heart attack rates, or the need for additional procedures within a year. The study focused on patients suffering from coronary artery illness, a condition where cholesterol buildup narrows the arteries supplying blood to the heart, leading to symptoms like shortness of breath and chest pain. Doctors often treat this condition with percutaneous…
