Jensen Huang on AI safety: if labs can't contain their experiments, 'we have to shut the labs down'

In a tense exchange on the Ezra Klein Show, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang responded to Klein's description of the Anthropic data incident by saying 'well they shouldn't release the product.' When Klein noted the product wasn't released, Huang replied that if labs say they can't contain their experiments, 'we have to shut the labs down.' The episode teaser says Huang thinks AI fear is getting way out of hand — a sharp split in risk narratives between frontier labs and industry.
