With Jensen Huang Gone, the A.I. Industry Loses Its Most Powerful Backer in Washington
Nvidia’s chief executive, a confidant of President Trump, successfully pushed for less regulation and open borders for chip sales.
Jensen Huang’s ouster as chief executive of Nvidia leaves a vacuum in Washington, where he was one of the strongest bulwarks against the regulation of artificial intelligence.
A confidant of President Trump, Mr. Huang successfully fought to open sales channels of A.I. chips to China. He also argued against A.I. safety regulations, which he said could hold back American companies in a global race with rivals. And he pushed for acceptance of open source technology, in which the underlying computer code for A.I. models is made public.
