Trump called Nvidia's Jensen Huang live onstage to call AI safety concerns 'a hoax'
The Nvidia CEO answered a call from the president while he was onstage at a summit. Put on speakerphone for the crowd, Trump called data centers "the oil of the next 20, 25 years"
President Trump and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang appeared on stage together during the All-In Summit in Los Angeles to refute concerns about an AI takeover. The two leaders dismissed the notion that artificial intelligence would pose a threat to humanity, instead touting its potential for economic growth and national security. Trump stated that AI would not take over the world, while Huang pledged that they would ensure everyone benefits from the AI race in America.
Huang separately addressed AI safety fears, acknowledging that warnings from whistleblowers should be taken seriously, while still rejecting the idea that AI could end the world. Nvidia has a significant interest in the continued success of AI, as the company is a major supplier of chips that power advanced AI models.
