AlexTensor · x · 2026-09-24
Gizmodo covers Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's Ezra Klein Show interview. He doesn't buy AI existential risk despite alarms from former lab employees — and if Anthropic or OpenAI insiders really believe they're about to destroy the world, the answer is to shut the labs down.
- Robotaxi analogy: if engineers can't train or align a self-driving car to road safety standards, "don't ship it"
- Responding to Dario Amodei's warning that agent swarms could threaten the internet within months, Huang says such problems must be solved before release — or the product doesn't ship
- Consistent with his long-standing skepticism of AI doom narratives
