"2030 is not going to be the end of the world. There is 0% chance that's going to be the end of the world," Huang told CBS News senior business and technology correspondent Jo Ling Kent ON Friday. "Scaring people is unnecessary. It is irresponsible." Huang was responding to claims on social media by former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon earlier this month that AI developers "earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade." Coxon's remarks sparked heated public debate about the risks posed by AI, as well as calls by Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and other leading industry figures to slow development of the technology. But Huang said he rejects such predictions because they are "not grounded in science." Nvidia has a substantial stake in the debate, given that its specialized chips power the large language models (or LLMs) by which artificial intelligence agents, created by OpenAI and others, access and synthesize information. Demand for those chips has boosted Nvidia's market value to $5.3 trillion, making it the world's most valuable company.  Asked why Americans should trust him on AI safety, given his company's incentives, Huang told CBS News that it's in Nvidia's best interest to ensure the industry builds its products responsibly.  "Our company's success is directly connected to the safe deployment of products and services," he said. "If we don't continue to do that, our value would be diminished." No need for AI rules? Several recent security breaches have spurred calls for AI regulation, including a July incident in which OpenAI bots went rogue and hacked the AI company Hugging Face . On Thursday, OpenAI also disclosed six additional incidents it described as "unexpected or concerning" behavior involving its AI models, prompting some lawmakers to call for tighter oversight of AI developers. Huang dismissed the need for new regulations, saying that existing U.S. laws governing product liability and unauthorized entry are sufficient. He added that he agrees with President Trump's view that the AI industry doesn't need additional guardrails. "You have all kinds of liabilities associated with cybersecurity" and damage liability laws, Huang said. "Apply that first — don't let this doomsday narrative allow someone to relieve them of the laws that currently exist." Competing with China In pushing back against cal...
