'We're going through a new industrial revolution': Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei share differing views on AI at Dreamforce 2026
Nvidia and Anthropic CEOs share their views on AI regulation and progress.
At the Dreamforce 2026 opening keynote, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei provided contrasting perspectives on the future of artificial intelligence (AI). Anthropic's Amodei likened the current AI market to the motor industry, emphasizing the importance of safety and international standards. He expressed surprise at the rapid pace of progress and the economic impact it has had, stating that there is still significant untapped potential for businesses to leverage AI platforms like Claude.
Amodei encouraged the public to utilize AI, noting that only 5-10% of its potential value has been realized.
In contrast, Nvidia's Huang painted a more optimistic picture of AI as a catalyst for a new industrial revolution. He stressed the importance of safety as a top priority, but firmly rejected the notion that speed and safety are mutually exclusive. Huang urged companies to pace themselves in releasing AI products until they are confident they can deliver a market-ready, safe solution.
He advocated for "agentforce" every company, emphasizing the critical role AI will play in reshaping industries and urging individuals not to be left behind in this technological revolution.
