What about the threat model that goes, "Trump threatens to impose 1000% tariffs if Chinese don't immediately turn over copies of all data captured by their AI products from users in the US?"

Compounding the difficulty of the question: half of HN thinks this would be a good idea.

The history of tariff talks seems to indicate that rather than oblige, China would stop all shipments of semiconductors to the US and Trump would back down after a week or two.

True. Now imagine a future POTUS who has all of Trump's faults except his endearingly-feckless idiocy.
