There will also have to be a limit to the development of artificial intelligence in the future, to prevent certain risks, but in the present AI companies continue on their way while the sale of chips will continue to gallop. Yesterday, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, after other megacap leaders had spoken over the weekend about the need to slow down AI development, painted a picture different picture, expecting doubling its chip sales next year Thanks to the spread of artificial intelligence across various sectors, Huang predicted in late August that the AI-driven sales surge would continue until 2028 and forecast 70% sales growth for the next fiscal year.
Le Nvidia stocks yesterday rose as much as 2,8%, reversing losses recorded last week. The stock has gained about 17% since the beginning of the year. All technology-related sectors have risen. In Asia, the South Korean index Kospi, with a high technological component, rose by about 3%, Samsung Electronics the 3,5% SK Hynix of 5,9%. At Piazza Affari the queen is stm which gained 2,5% in a Ftse Mib which instead fell by 0,7%.
Huang: Artificial intelligence must be developed with "responsible optimism"
The artificial intelligence brings great benefits to various sectors, Huang told reporters on the sidelines of an event convened by King Charles III in Scotland yesterday. Nvidia is the leading supplier of AI accelerators, chips used to develop and run AI models. Huang therefore maintains his optimistic stance at a time of growing concerns about AI after industry leaders had spoken of the possibility of slowing its development due to fears it could be dangerous. Huang said that companies must take responsibility and make sure that the their software and AI-based services are safe before releasing them: AI must be developed with a “responsible optimism”, with the responsibility falling on the developers themselves. Companies must become much more rigorous in ensuring their products are ready before releasing them to the market. “If it’s not ready, stop,” he told reporters on the sidelines of the meeting.
Already in recent days Huang, in chorus with the CEO of Meta Platforms, Mark Zuckerberg had poured water on the fire started by his colleagues: the CEO of anthropic, Dario Amodei, had raised the alarm on the existential risks potentially deriving from an excessive development of AI, followed by Sam altman, CEO of rival OpenAI, and Elon Musk of xAI. But Huang downplayed the risks of AI, adding that panic has created a false alternative between rapid innovation and AI safety, but it is absolutely possible to have both at the same time.
King Charles fears technology will fall into the "wrong hands": measures must be taken "before it's too late."
Among guests of King Charles In Scotland, in addition to Jensen Huang, there were also Demis Hassabis, founder and president of Google DeepMind, Sarah Friar, Chief Financial Officer of OpenAI, Tino Cuéllar, Head of Global Affairs of anthropic, and Kanishka Narayan, British minister for artificial intelligence. On this occasion, the King also warned AI leaders of the "existential dangers" posed by the possibility that technology falls into the wrong hands, stating that some are necessary security Before it's too late.
Charles said that the'artificial intelligence has the potential to improve and save human lives, in particular in the biological sciences and medicineBut its creators increasingly warn that it could develop darker capabilities, "perhaps even the ability to take lives," he said. "It seems urgent to properly assess the existential dangers such technologies could face if they fall into the wrong hands and are used in potentially catastrophic ways," he told leaders at his Dumfries House estate.
