NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang: AI will catch up with humans in 5 years, and it will take 10-20 years for the U.S. to achieve chip supply independence

NVIDIA, computer graphics card companyCEO Jen-Hsun Huang spoke at the New York Times' annual DealBook Summit about theartificial intelligence (AI)(AI) and chip supply views. He predicts that AI will overtake humans within the next five years, and that it will take at least 10 to 20 years for the U.S. to achieve chip supply independence.

Jen-Hsun Huang said that if you define general artificial intelligence (AGI) as computers that can complete tests in a way that is one-on-one with human intelligence, then within the next five years you'll clearly see AI that can complete those tests. this shows that AI is rapidly accelerating, and it's possible that AGI will be realized in the near future.

According to Jen-Hsun Huang, one of the barriers to achieving AGI is that machine learning is currently good at tasks such as recognition and perception, but has not yet reached the ability to perform multi-step reasoning tasks. This is the top task facing the tech industry and researchers today. He emphasized, "Everyone is working towards this."

Speaking about chip supply, Jen-Hsun Huang confirmed that NVIDIA is developing special chips for the Chinese market that will not violate US export control regulations. He reiterated NVIDIA's commitment to the Chinese market and said, "We have to develop new chips that comply with export control regulations, and once the regulations are met, we will go back to China to sell them. We will try to do business with everyone. Of course, our national security is important. Our national competitiveness is critical."

For the United States to achieve the timetable for chip supply independence, Jen-Hsun Huang said it would take at least 10 to 20 years. He pointed out that NVIDIA's existing supply of electronic components from around the world, to achieve full chip supply independence will be a long and complex process.

These views and predictions of Jen-Hsun Huang are of great significance to the development of the technology industry and artificial intelligence. With the continuous progress of AI technology and the popularization of its application, the realization of AGI will bring great changes to various industries. And the issue of chip supply will also have a profound impact on the global electronics industry.
