Semiconductor exemptions from US tariffs are largely ineffective since most semiconductors arrive embedded in finished goods such as servers, GPUs, and laptops, which still incur high tariffs.
High indirect costs due to tariffs impede investment in technology projects and slow down progress in critical supply chains, especially those relevant to generative AI and other vital sectors.
Rising hardware costs disproportionately affect smaller tech firms and startups, potentially hampering innovation and threatening the entire ecosystem, especially in blockchain and AI-driven applications.
