Will Continue To Serve Customers All Over The World: Nvidia CEO Amid Possibility Of Stricter Export Laws Under Trump
Nvidia CEO said, "We will continue to advance our technology and support and serve customers all over the world.”
After Donald Trump's win in the US Presidential Elections 2024, uncertainty has been looming over various sectors as the Biden government was known to be more lenient when it came to export policies. However, with Trump, the case might be a bit different. Nvidia CEO, Jensen Huang, has made a bold statement that global cooperation in technology will continue even if the incoming government imposes stricter export controls on advanced computing products.
During his first term, President-elect Donald Trump implemented several restrictions on the sale of US technology to China, citing national security risks. This policy has largely been maintained by the current administration under President Joe Biden.
Reuters quoted Huang as saying, “Open science in global collaboration, cooperation across math and science has been around for a very long time. It is the foundation of social advancement and scientific advancement.” He added that global cooperation is “going to continue. I don’t know what’s going to happen in the new administration, but whatever happens, we’ll balance simultaneously compliance with laws and policies, continue to advance our technology and support and serve customers all over the world.”
Age Of AI Begins
On Saturday, Huang addressed graduates and faculty at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, declaring that "the age of AI has begun" in his speech following the conferral of an honorary doctorate in engineering. As the leader of the world's foremost chip manufacturer for artificial intelligence applications, Huang received the honor alongside notable figures, including actor Tony Leung, Nobel laureate in Chemistry Prof. Michael Levitt, and Fields Medalist Prof. David Mumford.
He said, “The age of AI has started. A new computing era that will impact every industry and every field of science. Nvidia has reinvented computing and sparked a new industrial revolution. AI is certainly the most important technology of our time, and potentially of all times.”
He further said, “The whole world is reset. You’re at the starting lines with everybody else. An industry is being reinvented. You now have the instruments, the instruments necessary to advance science in so many different fields. The greatest challenges of our time, unimaginable challenges to overcome in the past, all of a sudden seem possible to tackle.”
