The development of AI must be safe, but we must not stop moving forward out of fear.

Today, as artificial intelligence rapidly develops, discussions about AI are becoming increasingly divided.

One camp believes that superintelligence may pose uncontrollable risks, and humanity needs to slow down and establish stricter safety mechanisms; the other camp argues that AI is the greatest technological revolution since the internet and mobile computing, and any hesitation could mean missing out on the next wave of industrial competition.

Amid escalating debates, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang offered his perspective at the All-In Summit 2026: AI development must be safe, but it must not be halted out of fear.

As a core driver of global AI infrastructure, every public statement by Jensen Huang not only reflects NVIDIA's business judgment but also shapes the entire technology industry's understanding of AI's future.

At the summit, Jensen Huang addressed recent discussions surrounding AI risks.

In response to the view held by some tech experts that “superintelligence could threaten humanity,” Jensen Huang stated that such extreme predictions currently lack a scientific foundation.

His core argument is:

We should take AI safety seriously, but we must not treat unverified future assumptions as reality.

Jensen Huang believes it is normal to have concerns during technological development, as similar situations have occurred in fields such as the internet, biotechnology, and nuclear energy.

But the real question is not to stop technological development, but how to establish the right methods to manage technology.

He emphasized that AI safety must be based on facts, experimentation, and engineering capabilities, not on fear.

If you give up on creating the future out of fear of what might happen, you will lose not only a technological advantage but also the ability to solve problems.

This stance by Jensen Huang also reflects his long-standing view on AI development: AI itself is not the enemy; what matters is how humans design, use, and govern it.

II. AI competition is not a model race, but an infrastructure war

Jensen Huang has emphasized on multiple occasions that the core of future AI competition is not merely who has the more powerful models, but who has the more powerful computing infrastructure.

In his view, the AI era is redefining the computing industry.

Over the past several decades:

• In the PC era, the core was the CPU;
• In the era of mobile internet, the core is mobile chips;
• In the era of cloud computing, the core is the data center.

And today:

The core asset of the AI era is large-scale computing power.

This is also why NVIDIA has transformed from a GPU company into an AI infrastructure company.

Jensen Huang believes that in the future, companies will not just purchase software, but will build their own "AI factories."

Similar to how factories in the industrial era produced goods, future AI factories will produce intelligence.

These AI factories will be responsible for:

• Train the model;
• Run AI Agent;
• Process business data;
• Automate complex tasks.

Therefore, computing power is becoming a new means of production.

Every country, every industry, and every company will need their own AI infrastructure in the future.

This is why data centers, chips, energy, and networks have become the new focal points of global technological competition.

Three: AI will not replace all jobs, but will change the distribution of job value.

Regarding the question of whether AI will lead to large-scale unemployment, Jensen Huang has maintained a relatively optimistic stance.

His point is not that AI will not affect employment, but that:

AI will replace those who don't use AI, not everyone.

What will truly change in the future is the way humans collaborate with machines.

For example:

In the past, a designer needed to spend hours completing basic design work.

In the future, designers may use AI to quickly generate numerous designs, then devote more time to:

• Creative judgment;
• Aesthetic choice;
• Strategic decision;
• User understood.

AI reduces the cost of repetitive tasks and enhances human creativity.

Huang Renxun believes that every major technological revolution in history has transformed occupational structures.

The Industrial Revolution did not eliminate all jobs, but created new industries.

The internet did not eliminate business; it created e-commerce, mobile applications, and the digital economy.

AI will be the same.

Four: The United States cannot slow down AI development, or it may lose the next round of competition.

During the All-In Summit, AI regulation became a key topic of discussion.

Huang Renxun clearly stated:

The United States cannot proactively slow down AI development due to concerns about risks.

He believes that global AI competition is accelerating, and the lead comes from continuous innovation.

In fields such as foundational models, chip manufacturing, and data center construction, speed is critical.

Huang Renxun emphasized:

If a country halts the development of AI infrastructure, it will not only lose its technological advantage but may also miss out on future economic growth opportunities.

He supports the establishment of reasonable regulation but opposes restrictions on innovation.

In his framework:

Regulation should address the issues;

Instead of preventing technology from emerging.

Five: The greatest opportunity for AI: to upgrade every industry

Jensen Huang's insights on AI extend beyond the technology industry.

He believes that AI will eventually enter all industries.

The areas most affected in the future include:

Medical

AI helps doctors analyze data and assist in diagnosis, improving medical efficiency.

Manufacturing

Robots combined with AI enable factories to achieve a higher level of automation.

Finance

AI helps analyze risks and process complex information.

Software development

AI agents could become new development partners.

Scientific research

AI accelerates drug discovery, materials exploration, and engineering innovation.

Jensen Huang believes that AI is not a standalone industry, but a new foundational capability.

Just as electricity once transformed all industries, AI will become a critical infrastructure of the future economy.

Six: Jensen Huang’s most essential statement: Don’t fear the future—create it.

Looking at Jensen Huang's remarks at the All-In Summit, it's clear that his core logic is very straightforward:

AI is indeed powerful and indeed requires security measures.

But the way to address risk is not to stop innovation.

but rather establish better rules, stronger engineering capabilities, and a more mature governance system during the innovation process.

For Jensen Huang, the greatest risk of the AI era is not that artificial intelligence is developing too quickly, but that humans will abandon exploration out of fear.

Over the past three decades, NVIDIA has evolved from a gaming graphics card company into a giant of AI infrastructure, fundamentally betting on the same insight:

Computing power will continuously drive the advancement of civilization.

Now, this wager is entering a new phase.

AI is no longer just a technology in laboratories; it is becoming a core force driving global economic, industrial, and societal transformation.

And Huang Renxun's answer was:

Don't wait for the future to happen.

Be part of creating the future.
