Story summary

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, a leading chipmaker for AI technology, recently told CBS News' Jo Ling Kent that he disagrees with warnings suggesting AI could pose an existential threat by 2030. He stated there's a "0% chance" the world will end due to AI in 2030 and emphasized that developing AI as fast as possible is essential. Huang also noted that his company would never ship unsafe products but stressed that concerns about imminent disaster are unfounded. This stance comes amid growing unease among some researchers who warn of potential risks associated with rapid AI development.
