Nvidia’s Jensen Huang Says the US Must Take China Seriously in the AI Race

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says the United States should never underestimate China as the global race over artificial intelligence heats up. Speaking in Berlin at the company’s GTC conference, he talked with interviewer about how fast China’s AI and chip manufacturing abilities are growing. His message was simple: the competition is serious, and American leaders and companies need to treat it that way.

American Technology Strengths and Global Competition

Huang also pointed to the advantages US technology still holds. At the same time, he argued for policies that let American companies compete around the world, especially in emerging markets where demand for AI is rising. In his view, staying competitive abroad is just as important as staying ahead at home, because the firms that win these markets will shape how the technology spreads.
