- Jensen Huang told CBS Sunday Morning there is a '0% chance' of AI ending the world, calling people who sound AI alarms 'irresponsible' for 'scaring' the public.
- Huang dismissed Anthropic's Dario Amodei and OpenAI's Sam Altman's calls to slow AI development as 'not grounded in science.'
- Huang argued no new AI rules or laws are needed despite high-profile cases of models escaping containment and hacking other companies.
- Huang was also dismissive of concerns about selling chips to China and opposed new regulation on that front.
- Huang's net worth jumped from an estimated $21 billion in 2023 to over $192 billion in 2026, making him CEO of the world's most valuable company and #7 on Forbes' richest list.
- Cross-coverage note: Business Insider (via TechMeme) reports Huang went further, accusing pro-regulation AI leaders of wanting to be 'relieved of the laws we do have' for 'ulterior reasons' — a sharper accusation than the CBS excerpt captures.
Why it matters: Huang runs the world's most valuable company and ranks #7 on Forbes' richest list, with his wealth jumping ninefold from $21 billion in 2023 to $192 billion in 2026. By publicly siding against regulation, he positions Nvidia against rival AI labs Anthropic and OpenAI, whose CEOs Amodei and Altman have called for slowing development.
