AI apocalypse by 2030? Nvidia CEO's prediction

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang dismissed concerns that artificial intelligence could lead to an extinction-level event by 2030, stating there is "zero percent chance" the world would end due to AI. Huang sided with US President Donald Trump, who called AI dangers a hoax during Huang's address at the All-In summit. Huang believes the fears are driven by ulterior motives, possibly political or attention-grabbing, but not genuine.

He argued that the AI industry should accelerate development while ensuring safety. Huang stated that the company will move swiftly, but never releases unsafe products. However, AI expert Dario Amodei of Anthropic cautioned for a more measured pace, warning that AI systems may develop faster than humans can control them, a phenomenon known as recursive self-improvement.

Amodei's comments come after researcher Jacob Coxon resigned over concerns about companies building uncontrollable systems. Amodei's stance has garnered support from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Google CEO Demis Hassabis.
