Jensen Huang Questions AI Labs' Doomer Narrative: 'Why Build More Compute If You Fear It?'
basedjensen · x · 2026-09-25
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pushed back on the AI labs' doomer narrative in an interview: he doesn't believe labs are building something they have no idea how to control — "their whole company would be out of control."
When Anders Anderson noted that Dario Amodei sincerely holds these safety concerns, Huang said it makes no sense to him that Amodei would be racing ahead and building more compute while issuing such warnings — "you're going to have to ask them." The exchange highlights a rare public rift between the chip giant and frontier labs over AI safety rhetoric.
