Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Says He Would Cut Off Chip Supply to Unsafe AI Developers

On October 13 local time, Nvidia announced it would invest $250 million in the UK over the next five years to advance research on AI agent safety and security, pledging $50 million a year in computing resources to support related technology governance. The news was reported by 36Kr on October 14, citing Jiemian as its source.

On October 15, Wallstreetcn reported remarks by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in a Bloomberg interview in London. Huang said he would be willing to stop supplying chips to any customer found to be developing unsafe AI software, but would talk to that customer first. He noted that Nvidia's technology is general-purpose and that the company's ability to judge how others use it has limits. He also said market concerns about AI safety risks exceed the actual situation, and that talk of an AI bubble is likewise overstated. At the same event, Nvidia again announced the $250 million donation to UK AI safety research over five years.

The report added that Huang was touring Europe to build momentum for an upcoming company event in Berlin, and that he reiterated an optimistic view of AI infrastructure demand, saying the supply-demand imbalance would persist for several years and would eventually balance out, but not today. It also said Nvidia and other chip stocks fell sharply on Wednesday. Public information currently stops here: Nvidia has disclosed the UK investment amount and annual computing resources, while Huang's supply-cut remark remains a hypothetical response with no specific customers or implementation details attached.
