Nvidia's Huang Slams 'God AI' Hype and Doomer Scenarios as 'Extremely Hurtful'
Jensen Huang doesn't want god AI — and he thinks the hype about it is holding humanity back.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang rejected the concept of a singular, all-powerful artificial intelligence during recent remarks, calling the narrative "extremely hurtful."
"I don't see any researchers having any reasonable ability to create god AI. The ability for AI to understand human language, genome language, and molecular language and protein language and amino-acid language and physics language all supremely well. That god AI just doesn't exist."
Huang also criticized the "doomer narrative" surrounding AI development:
"I think that the idea of a monolithic, gigantic company/country/nation-state is just... super unhelpful, it's too extreme. If you want to take it to that level, we should just stop everything..."
These statements contrast with real-world AI adoption challenges. Stanford University reported a 13% drop in job listings over three years due to AI. Fortune magazine found 95% of AI implementations have no impact on profit-and-loss statements. Meanwhile, Meta is building a 6-gigawatt-capable nuclear plant to power AI data centers, following OpenAI's Stargate Project.
