Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says there’s ‘0% chance’ that world will end in 2030

He reiterates his stance that AI can be safely managed as calls for more guardrails mount

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has firmly dismissed the notion that artificial intelligence could cause the end of the world by 2030, stating that the technology poses no extinction risk to humanity. In an interview with CBS News, Huang emphasized that although AI can be characterized in various ways, there is a zero percent chance that it will end the world by 2030.

The CEO has been vocal about AI's safe management during recent appearances at events. Huang's company, Nvidia, is a leading provider of AI processors and has also advocated against the need for new regulations. The recent wave of AI unease was initiated when Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon resigned, warning about potential catastrophic consequences.

In a CBS interview set to air on September 20, Huang argued for the industry to continue its rapid pace without slowing down, while ensuring that products are safe before being released.
