- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang rejected proposed antitrust waivers that could allow AI companies to coordinate a slowdown.
- Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei had proposed jointly slowing advanced-model development, potentially with government mediation.
- Huang called AI safety an engineering and testing task, saying unready products should be held back.
- Because AI labs compete, joint agreements on development speed could create antitrust risks.
The fact that we need new laws, new antitrust laws, or new regulations, so that these companies could do their fundamental engineering and do it properly before they release products, that is just completely unnecessary," Huang said on CNBC's Mad Money. "We have plenty of laws. We have plenty of regulations that govern the reliability and the functionality of products.— Jensen Huang on CNBC's Mad Money interview, discussing AI safety and antitrust exemptions.
