Nvidia CEO Urges U.S.-China AI Safety Dialogue as 2 Governments Weigh Risk Channels

Summary
Jensen Huang said Nvidia "absolutely must" work with Chinese AI companies on monitoring risks from what he called potentially dangerous AI, arguing collaboration is necessary to advance the technology safely.
Speaking in London, Huang said dialogue—not heavier regulation—is the right approach, adding that he already speaks with many researchers in China and wants the U.S. and U.K. to deepen those exchanges.
His comments contrast with calls from OpenAI and Anthropic leaders to slow AI development and tighten oversight after researchers warned in recent months about existential risks to humanity.
U.S.-China AI safety talks are already taking shape: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed a bilateral AI dialogue with He Lifeng in September, including an incident channel reaching national-security level.
