Description:
Jensen Huang dismisses god-level AI fears, stresses responsible use of AI tools to improve productivity and address real-world challenges.

FULL STORY ======================================================================Exaggera ted fear of AI has been extremely harmful to industry and society Practical
AI can enhance human productivity without replacing workers entirely AI and robots could address labor shortages as digital workforce supplements

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has addressed the ongoing debate around advanced artificial intelligence, arguing the idea of a so-called "god AI" is not remotely feasible today.

Huang explained no researcher currently has any reasonable ability to develop AI that fully understands human language, molecular structures, protein sequences, or physics at a comprehensive level.

Huang emphasized such a system sits far beyond current technology and will
not appear in the near future, dismissing extreme claims of imminent AI omnipotence. Nvidia CEO warns against exaggerated fear of AI

Huang criticized influencers and commentators who promote a "doomer" narrative, saying that exaggerated fears have been "extremely hurtful" to the industry and society at large.

"I don't see any researchers having any reasonable ability to create god
AI... That god AI just doesn't exist," Huang said.

He argued that framing AI as an existential threat or likening it to science fiction scenarios does not help governments, workers, or technology companies address realistic challenges.

Instead, he suggested that the focus should remain on practical applications where AI can improve human productivity rather than spreading fear about a hypothetical, god-level intelligence.

The Nvidia head highlighted several real-world ways AI can be applied responsibly.

For example, he described how AI and robots could help address labor shortages, functioning like AI immigrants that support industries struggling to find workers.

Huang also framed AI as a complement to productivity tools , offering capabilities that enhance human output and efficiency rather than replacing
it entirely.

Despite these potential benefits, reports from Stanford University and
Fortune indicate that AI has had a limited impact on job listings over the past few years.

Many AI tools have produced little measurable effect on business operations
or financial performance.

Huang made it clear that he does not want a god-level AI to exist, calling
the concept of a single monolithic system controlled by a company, nation, or other entity "super unhelpful."

He stressed that the tech industry should focus on incremental improvements that benefit humans today.

Even as companies like Meta expand AI infrastructure globally, building massive data centers powered by nuclear energy, Huang insisted that responsible development and realistic expectations matter more than hype.
