Nvidia CEO dismisses AI extinction risk as '0 per cent chance'

hindustantimes.com

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said there is a "0 per cent chance" artificial intelligence will cause the extinction of humanity, directly contradicting warnings from some industry experts. Huang made the remarks in a CBS News interview airing Sunday, arguing AI can be safely managed and rejecting calls for new regulations. He said development should proceed as quickly as possible, though he stressed Nvidia would never ship unsafe products. The debate follows former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon's resignation and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's September 12 essay urging slower AI development due to risks from recursive self-improvement. OpenAI's Sam Altman and Google's Demis Hassabis support Amodei, while Huang and President Donald Trump back the current AI boom.
