  "account": "Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang dismissed concerns about AI and its potential negative impacts during a speech at the GTC event in Berlin. He urged people to focus on building a future with AI rather than fearing it. Huang defended AI's potential to create jobs and increase productivity, citing examples such as new construction jobs and startups being created due to the AI datacenter boom. He emphasized that technological change always displaces some jobs but also creates others. Huang addressed safety concerns, pointing to Nvidia's OpenShell sandbox technology that restricts AI agents to the resources needed for a task. He expressed concern when asked about slowing down AI development, stating that some minimum standards for coordination would be beneficial. Nvidia's financial success was highlighted, with $215.9 billion in revenue and $120 billion in net profit for fiscal 2026. Huang also discussed the affordability of running large AI models on a $4,000 computer designed for home use.",
