President Donald Trump said he considered attempting to break up Nvidia Corp. to increase competition in artificial intelligence chips before finding out “it’s not easy in that business.”
“I said, ‘Look, we’ll break this guy up,’ before I learned the facts here,” Trump said Wednesday at an AI summit in Washington. Trump said he was told by aides that doing so was “very hard” and that the company held a substantial advantage over all competitors that would take years to overcome.
