Internet reports that U.S. President Trump said at the Artificial Intelligence Summit in Washington on Wednesday that he had considered splitting up NVIDIA (NVDA.O) to increase competition in the field of artificial intelligence chips, but later found that "it will not be easy." "Before I knew the truth, I said,'Look, we're going to tear this guy apart,'"Trump said. Trump said his aides told him it was "very difficult" to do so and that the company has a huge advantage over all its competitors, which will take years to overcome. "I thought we could break them up a little bit and increase competition a little bit, and then I found it wasn't easy," Trump said. Trump went on to praise Nvidia CEO Huang Renxun, who was also present at his event. Earlier in the day, Huang Renxun praised Trump's approach to artificial intelligence on stage, saying,"The United States has unique advantages that other countries cannot have, and that is President Trump."
