Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Opposes New AI Rules, Calling Safety an Engineering Problem

Summary
Speaking at Dreamforce on Tuesday, Jensen Huang said AI is ultimately a human-built computing system that can be controlled through engineering and existing laws, not new regulation.
Huang argued market pressure should keep companies from shipping unsafe AI products, saying firms should pause releases until they are confident in functionality, capability and safety.
The remarks extend Huang’s split with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, who has pushed for slower development, third-party evaluators and coordinated safety standards.
Huang’s stance matters because Nvidia sits at the center of the AI boom, selling the hardware and software behind many systems while also promoting open-weight models as a competitive counterweight.
