Nvidia's Huang dismisses warnings of AI-driven human extinction by 2030
The chipmaker's chief executive called predictions of an AI-caused catastrophe 'irresponsible,' according to the Guardian.
Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang has rejected warnings that artificial intelligence could threaten humanity's survival within the decade, according to the Guardian.
Huang said there was "0% chance" that AI would cause human extinction by 2030, dismissing such predictions as "doomsday narratives," the newspaper reported.
The comments responded to claims made on social media by former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, who had suggested AI could become "superhuman" and threaten humanity within ten years. Huang called those claims "irresponsible," according to the Guardian.
