Trump Calls AI Safety Warnings a 'Scam' During Call with Jensen Huang
During a call to NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang at the All-In Summit, Donald Trump dismissed AI safety concerns as a scam and compared data centers to the 'oil of the next 20 years.'
Donald Trump called Jensen Huang during his appearance at the All-In Summit and delivered a tirade against slowing down AI development.
He stated publicly that all warnings about the dangers of AI are a "scam," and those opposing the construction of data centers are allegedly plotting and helping China. He referred to data centers themselves as the "oil of the next 20 years."
"Robots aren't going to take over the world. AI isn't going to take over the world. This whole story is nonsense and a scam."
According to Trump, he understands AI because it is "in his blood": his uncle taught at MIT for 40 years and had a brilliant mind.
"You have to be a little careful, you have to act reasonably. But that doesn't mean we're going to stop an entire industry."
