Jensen Huang puts Trump on speakerphone onstage to announce robots won’t take over the world

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang took a call from President Trump on Monday while onstage at the All-In Podcast’s All-In Summit, putting the president on speakerphone before a large crowd. During the call, the president addressed recent fears regarding AI development, labeling them a “hoax” and telling the audience that “the robots will not be taking over.” Trump also commented on data centers, claiming that some communities that would have been “dying” are now “really wealthy” because of them, although he provided no specific details. The call occurred during a busy week for AI news, following a long essay by Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei titled “We Must Pace the Frontier.” In the essay, Amodei argued for slowing down AI development and increasing coordination between governments—a sentiment generally agreed upon by other AI executives. However, Trump pushed back against these views in posts on Truth Social and reiterated his stance during the event. Huang did not challenge Trump's assertions, stating instead, “We’re going to make sure that everybody wins in the AI race in America. Every industry, every company, every state, every people.” Huang also noted to Trump that he was speaking to “thousands” of people.
