During the All-in Summit in Los Angeles on September 14, Jensen Huang received a call from former President Donald Trump, who dismissed concerns about AI dangers as a hoax. Trump emphasized the value of data centers, likening them to oil for the next 20 to 25 years, and stated that robots and AI would not take over everything. He urged caution but insisted that the industry should not be slowed down.
Huang responded by affirming the importance of ensuring that the benefits of AI reach everyone in the U.S., including all industries and states. He echoed Trump's sentiment that AI should not be slowed, referencing recent calls from industry leaders like Anthropic's Dario Amodei and OpenAI's Sam Altman for a more cautious approach to AI development. Trump's stance contrasts sharply with these calls for moderation.
The implications of this conversation suggest a strong support for AI infrastructure investment and data center development in the current policy environment. Huang's commitment to not slowing AI development signals ongoing demand for chips and computing power, positioning AI infrastructure as a critical component of future energy strategy rather than a technology requiring restraint. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
