NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said in a recent CBS News interview that he does not agree with predictions that artificial intelligence could wipe out humanity before 2030. Huang said 「2030 is not going to be the end of the world」 and put the probability of AI ending the world by that date at 「0%.」 He argued that AI can be managed safely and said the industry should not slow development solely because of potential risks. At the same time, he said companies should never ship products that are not ready or that still carry safety concerns. The remarks came after former Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon warned on leaving the company that AI researchers 「genuinely believe AI could kill all of us by the end of this decade,」 a comment that helped reignite debate over AI safety. Bloomberg has described Huang as a consistent critic of AI doomsday arguments, a stance he has repeated in several recent public comments on AI safety.

Huang said AI can be managed safely and argued that the industry should not slow down development because of potential risks. He added that 「we should move as fast as possible,」 but said products should never be pushed to market if they are not ready or if they still have safety issues.

Earlier, former Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon warned as he left the company that researchers building AI 「genuinely believe AI could kill all of us by the end of this decade.」 That warning triggered another round of discussion around AI safety risks.

Bloomberg has said Huang, as CEO of NVIDIA, one of the world’s main AI chip suppliers, has consistently rejected AI doomsday claims. The report also noted that Huang has spoken publicly about AI safety several times in recent weeks while opposing efforts to slow AI development over potential risks.
