NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said in a CBS interview that some AI executives who warn that artificial intelligence could endanger humanity while pushing for tighter oversight are "not being sincere" and may have "other motives." Huang said those companies are not truly asking for more laws, but instead want to escape current oversight. He also criticized the use of catastrophic AI scenarios to frighten the public, calling it irresponsible and unnecessary. Huang added that the U.S. AI industry should not slow down, arguing that doing so could give China a chance to catch up. In his view, the regulatory focus should be on enforcing laws already on the books rather than creating new measures. His remarks came after Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei had called for slowing frontier AI development and building stronger safeguards, while OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk had also shown interest in related initiatives.

Huang says the U.S. should not slow AI development
Huang said the U.S. AI industry does not need to slow down, because doing so could give China room to catch up. He said the priority for regulators should be to enforce existing laws, not add new ones.
Other AI executives have taken a different view
Earlier, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for slowing frontier AI development and said stronger risk safeguards should be put in place. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk have also expressed interest in related efforts.
