For a week, Silicon Valley’s bet on Donald Trump looked to be turning very bad, very quickly. The hit to complex electronics supply chains made Apple, Nvidia and Tesla among the biggest casualties of the US president’s assault on the global trading system. And with potentially ruinous tariffs looming on computer systems embedded with GPUs — the chips fuelling the artificial intelligence boom — it was possible to imagine the training of the most advanced AI models being driven outside the US.
在一周內,硅谷對唐納德?特朗普(Donald Trump)的押注似乎變得非常糟糕且迅速。美國總統對全球貿易體系的沖擊,使得蘋果(Apple)、英偉達(Nvidia)和特斯拉(Tesla)成為復雜電子供應鏈中最大的受害者之一。隨著可能對嵌入GPU的計算機系統征收毀滅性關稅的威脅,最先進的人工智能模型的訓練可能會被迫轉移到美國之外。
