A very important interview with Jensen Huang, CEO Nvidia.
HUANG. It is absolutely true we have to democratize this technology and the reason the reason why is very clear. There’s an awakening of every single country in probably the last six months that artificial intelligence is a technology you can’t be mystified by, you cannot be terrified by it, you have to find a way to activate yourself to take advantage of it. And the reason for that is because this is the beginning of a new Industrial Revolution. This Industrial Revolution is about the production not of energy, not of food, but the production of intelligence and every country needs to own the production of their own intelligence, which is the reason why there’s this idea called Sovereign AI you own your own data. […] I’m going to say something and it’s going to sound completely opposite of what people feel. You probably recall uh over the course of the last 10 years 15 years almost everybody who sits on a stage like this would tell you it is vital that your children learn computer science. Everybody should learn how to program. And in fact it’s almost exactly the opposite. It is our job to create computing technology such that nobody has to program and that the programming language is human. Everybody in the world is now a programmer. This is the miracle. This is the miracle of artificial intelligence. For the very first time we have closed the Gap. The technology divide has been completely closed and this the reason why so many people can engage artificial intelligence. It is the reason why every single government, every single industrial conference, every single company, is talking about artificial intelligence today. Because, for the very first time, you can imagine everybody in your company being a technologist. […] The technology divide has been closed or another way to say it the technology leadership of other countries has now been reset. The countries the people that understand how to solve a domain problem in digital biology, or in education of young people, or in manufacturing or in farming, those people who understand domain expertise now can utilize technology that is readily available to you. You now have a computer that will do what you tell it to do, to help automate your work, to amplify your productivity, to make you more efficient. And so I think that this is just a tremendous time.
