Jensen Huang: we're already in the superintelligence era, slowing down AI is a mistake
FinanceYF5 · x · 2026-09-16
On the All-In Podcast, Jensen Huang addressed AI risk debates, saying some claims by Jacob Coxon lack scientific grounding and can be rebutted by facts.
His key points:
- The US must keep moving fast; slowing down is the wrong strategy
- We are already at the "superintelligence" stage; frontier labs are strong and should keep advancing
- Dramatic AI narratives should be toned down
Mid-interview, Trump called in, joking that Jensen builds the world's best AI chips but can't figure out speakerphone; both stressed AI's benefits for jobs, growth, and national security.
