Summary
Jensen Huang is heading to Capitol Hill to meet Republicans and Democrats on U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence, with Nvidia saying the talks will also cover open-source AI.
Tuesday’s schedule includes Sen. Mark Warner, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, who has raised security concerns after last week’s OpenAI autonomous cyberattack.
Huang defended open-source models on X ahead of the visit, arguing they strengthen safety and cybersecurity while accelerating innovation and national sovereignty.
Sam Altman is also expected to meet Warner separately this week, underscoring how Washington is pressing major AI companies on security, governance and U.S. competitiveness.
