Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on Chinese AI models:

These Chinese models are excellent. Open-source models that are excellent should be used.

The market misunderstood the impact of DeepSeek the first time. It's misunderstood the impact of Kimi again this time.

Whenever there's more use, you'll have to sell a lot more Nvidia computers, we'll have to build more data centers. We'll have more services.

The technology will diffuse into more industries, which leads to great growth.

Q: Should American companies be allowed to use Chinese AI models?

Jensen Huang: Absolutely. There's a misconception that somehow there are backdoors, that they're somehow connected to China in some way.

You download the models, you can fine-tune them, you can enhance them, you can guardrail them as you desire.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on AI:

The fact that this is going to be the end of humanity—it's complete nonsense. The fact that this is going to destroy half of the American jobs—it's complete nonsense.

AI will increase productivity. When productivity is increased, it creates opportunities.

Over the history of technology, society has become more productive as a result of technology. It has created more jobs, not less.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on the American dream:

Anything's possible in the United States. You know, there's a reason why it's called the American Dream.

If you're willing to work hard, if you're willing to take chances and go do something unique, the environment, the conditions, the support, the people, the brilliance that's all around us makes it possible.

And I think this is the land of dreams.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on Trump:

He's smart. He remembers everything. Goodness gracious. He sure knows numbers.

He's the only president that has ever remembered H20, H200. NVIDIA's Blackwell. He knows our next generation, Rubin. He has just an amazing memory.

He wants the United States to be re-industrialized.

He is single-mindedly about creating jobs. He's single-mindedly about reshaping the American economy and the labor workforce.

Trump:

The Civil Nuclear Deal (There will be no enrichment of material!) being made between the United States Department of Energy and Saudi Arabia, which pertains only to non-military use such as the ones that Iran and UAE (and others) already have, will be approved, but is totally subject to Saudi Arabia joining the very respected and successful Abraham Accords.

The United States is not opposed to Civil (Non-Enriched) Nuclear Facilities.

Trump:

A year ago the United States of America attacked, very powerfully, the Houthis, for their interference with commerce and trade, by shooting at ships.

Since that time, and during our conflict with Iran, they have acted very responsibly. Unfortunately, now they are starting up again, shooting at two Saudi Arabian ships last night.

Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if they do this again, the U.S. will hold Iran responsible, in that the Houthis are a Surrogate and/or Proxy of Iran, and major military punishment will be inflicted upon Iran and, of course, the Houthis, themselves, who I am very disappointed with in that they have, until now, acted very professionally and smart.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Nine months into the ceasefire, reconstruction has yet to begin.

Netanyahu's Office:

The joint American and Israeli military action against the genocidal regime in Teheran and Israel's crushing of Iran's terror axis have created the possibility to expand the circle of peace.

Saudi Arabia's joining of the Abraham Accords would be an historic leap forward for peace in the Middle East.
