Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has emerged as President Donald Trump’s most trusted voice on artificial-intelligence policy, edging out Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos. Experts attribute Huang’s influence to Nvidia’s position at the center of the AI supply chain, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told lawmakers that Trump’s views closely align with Huang’s. Trump publicly backed Huang during a live phone call at the All-In Summit in Los Angeles, dismissing warnings that AI poses existential risks; he has separately called growing AI safety concerns a hoax and previously said robots would not take over the world. Huang has appeared alongside Trump at least six times since the second term began, including trips to Saudi Arabia, the U.K. and China, and is expected to attend this week’s state dinner with Xi Jinping. Huang’s opposition to slowing frontier AI development contrasts with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, whose proposal for greater caution was backed by Elon Musk, Google DeepMind’s Demis Hassabis and OpenAI’s Sam Altman. Nvidia shares rose roughly 1.3% Friday to close at $222.27, extending a four-day rally.
