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…
