The White House just dropped a policy update that's turning heads in the tech world. Trump announced Monday that Nvidia's H200 AI chips can now be shipped to certain approved buyers in China and other regions—but here's the catch. A full 25% of those chip sales? That money goes straight to the U.S. government. So basically, Uncle Sam is taking a quarter of the pie every time one of these high-performance AI processors changes hands. It's a move that blends geopolitics with revenue strategy, and it's bound to shake up how companies approach the Asian market for cutting-edge hardware.
