President Donald Trump has spared iPhone, laptops and other electronics from his brutal China tariffs in surprise move. The moves gives the likes of Apple and Samsung a major win while Americans dodge massive price hikes. Under the unexpected tariff exclusions, quietly revealed late Friday by US Customs and Border Protection, the gadgets will avoid Trump's 125 percent import tax on Chinese goods - and even his sweeping 10 percent global tariff.

Donald Trump's tariff strategy has at least one biblical connection: like the peace of God, it "passeth all understanding" (Philippians 4:7). Rival attempts to extract a rationale from the chaos include the idea that he is trying to devalue the dollar, or that he is seeking to "reshore" the...

AI's appetite for power is exploding. Hyperscalers have only just begun to adopt Nvidia's 120 kW-per-rack systems, and the GPU giant is already charting a course toward 600 kW designs. Faced with that kind of surging demand, Big Tech's environmental sustainability pledges are starting to look less like strategy and more like a last-ditch Hail Mary.

AI Agents represent one of the most promising frontiers for applying large language models to complex tasks. As organisations increasingly seek to leverage AI for automating workflows and solving multi-step problems, understanding how to build effective agents becomes crucial. In this post, we're bringing you practical frameworks and implementation patterns that we came across in Chip Huyen's work and Anthropic's guidance on implementing AI agents, complemented by our own experience at Kiseki Labs from building our AI agent libraries.

As President Donald Trump's administration embraces a whole-of-government strategy to scale back federal investments, many assume the U.Department of Energy's (DOE) Loan Programs Office (LPO) is once again at a crossroads. Yet, contrary to that perception, the administration appears positioned to leverage LPO as a strategic vehicle for catalyzing private sector investment in energy infrastructure - enhancing U.manufacturing competitiveness, strengthening supply chains and reinforcing the nation's energy dominance.

President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on all the "reciprocal" tariffs, with the exception of China, which will see tariffs increased to 125%. The president said he also expects Beijing to reach an agreement. "China wants to make a deal," he said. "They just don't know how quite to go about it." Effective May 2025, every parcel from Mainland China or Hong Kong that once qualified for the US $800 de minimis threshold incurs a 30 % ad valorem tariff and a specific duty of US $25 per item — rising to US $50 on June 2025.
