What does Jensen Huang say about the “Doomer Hoax” and AI safety?
Some people call it vision. Vision's an awfully big word to me because I I believe, first of all, vision matters.
We preempted the weekly show. And there's only three people we preempt the show for President Trump, Jesus, and Jensen.
The number one podcast in the world. That's Jensen Wong. He's the founder and president CEO of NVIDIA. Whether you know it or not, his decisions are shaping your future. Nvidia's the most important stock in this market, and Jensen's arguably the most executive in history.
Revenue exploded 97% year over year.
Not only is demand already strong, it's actually accelerating. NVIDIA is the only computing platform that is a full-stack AI factory. A GPU is like a time machine because it lets you see the future sooner. And if we could see the future and we can predict the future, then we have a better chance of making that future the best version of it.
Please welcome Jensen Huang. Oh, we gotta standing out on the way in. Standing out. Standing out on the way in. That's our guy. Ladies and gentlemen, GPU Jesus. They love you. They love you.
Thank you. I love you back. Number one podcast in the world. In the world.
Absolutely.
Wow.
We like the new jacket. Well,
you know. I just I felt you guys needed some energy. Yes.
This
is the I know we're talking about serious stuff here, but we need to talk about it with energy.
Yes. Let's uh let's start with this uh essay from this weekend. Which one? Let's start with Dario's essay because
Hemingway involved?
Actually did anybody run it through Pangram? I don't even know how much of it was AI helped, but That was a pretty incredible thing. And then I think what a lot of people were surprised by was the coalescing of the Frontier Labs around the essay itself. Just Jensen, unpack what happened, how you read it, how you interpreted it, and then we'll get into some details that were inside of it. But maybe just the high level thoughts to kick it off.
Well, first of all, there were a lot of stuff in there.
Yeah.
And and uh uh the first there is a there's a part about about safety which we have to take very seriously. Safety's paramount, obviously. Um uh safety and leadership are not false they're false choices. You're you're able to innovate quickly, you're able to execute quickly and and uh America's able to lead and uh to do it safely. I think those are those are false choices, but safety Is obviously important. There's a matter of internal control that I think he was speaking to. Obviously, the Coxson whistleblower is a very serious matter. Whenever you have a whistleblower, you gotta take it very seriously. I thought Coxson had great courage to uh put out put out uh uh what his concerns were. Um and even then there were some issues that were kind of conflated with.
Within that. I think the the the whistleblowing is is fine. I think the the uh scientific prediction uh uh about the future uh is less fine because it's not grounded on science, obviously. And um uh it it was expressed by a scientist, but it was obviously not grounded on science, and and so I take I take issue with that. But obviously the whistleblower part of it. Uh you know, I I think there's just a whole bunch of stuff. Uh pausing, uh uh pacing, uh uh those are all the voluntary things that they could do. If they feel that their company is out of control. Uh if Coxon saw something, yeah, you know, obviously we didn't we don't know what Coxson saw, but he f if he saw that the company was out of control.
And maybe it's a transition from uh uh research to engineering. As you know, these labs are research are transitioning from research to engineering. Extraordinary talent, extraordinary engineering. Um, but obviously engineering is different than research. Maybe that transition is clumsy. Uh you know, I don't we don't know what what he saw and ultimately only he knows. Um but if there was a a matter of lack of control that that's a different topic. Um how should the government deal with it now all of a sudden uh regulation or re I mean, it just covers everything in one block. Can
you just help us sort of unpack we we play we tried to play this game actually this week on the pod and it was difficult, which is how do you describe like, you know, my mom calls me and she's like, Chamath, what is this whole
