On today’s podcast:

1) President Trump teases new semiconductor tariffs at a White House dinner surrounded by tech titans. Mark Zuckerberg and Tim Cook joined other tech industry leaders in touting their pledges to boost spending in the US on artificial intelligence during a dinner hosted by President Trump.

2) Broadcom is helping OpenAI design and produce an artificial intelligence accelerator from 2026, getting into a lucrative sphere dominated by Nvidia. The two firms plan to ship the first chips in that lineup starting next year, with OpenAI initially using the chip for its own internal purposes.
