In the most agitated Jensen Huang on record, the NVIDIA CEO pushed back hard when Dwarkesh Patel argued that selling H20-class compute to China shortens offensive cyber capability timelines. Huang called nuclear weapon analogies 'madness,' insisted that 50% of AI researchers are Chinese and 60% of mainstream chip manufacturing is Chinese, and argued Huawei just had a record year proving export controls are futile. He also admitted NVIDIA was late to backing foundational AI labs like Anthropic.
