Jensen Huang tells Ezra Klein that AI is just software whose existential risks are overstated, yet his standards would shut down OpenAI and 10x safety spending (Zvi Mowshowitz/Don't Worry About the Vase)
Jensen Huang accidentally called for shutting down OpenAI and intentionally called for spending vastly more on safety.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, known for his disconnected nature from regular life experiences, discussed the rapidly developing AI field with New York Times columnist Ezra Klein. Huang believes AI's increasing deployment, lacking regulation, is causing concern among some billionaires and CEOs who call for a pause or slow down in AI development.
Huang's comments suggest a potential loss of certain skills in students, with basic math being forgotten, but he maintains that new skills will emerge. Huang also downplays the importance of knowing one's home address, reflecting his detachment from average people's experiences. Despite the alarmism surrounding AI, Huang insists it remains just a program running on an operating system, urging people not to attribute human characteristics to AI.
