- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said there’s a real cost to AI doomerism.
- Without naming names, Huang blamed “very well-respected people” for end-of-the-world narratives.
- Huang said the rhetoric is “scaring people” from making investments in the improvement of AI.
Telling people not to buy my shitty product is really hurtful to my bottom line!
Jensen is not helpful to society. He’s done a lot of damage.
the only good jensen is jensen ackles
Hmmm.
Teen heart throb Jensen Ackles or the mature stud Jensen Ackles?
Inquiring minds want to know.
yes
Translation: the plebs are making it hard for me to exploit them and get filthy rich even though I’m a fleshbag that can’t take monies to the afterlife.
AI doomerism will continue until consumer memory supply improves.
Ehhh, yeah. No Jensen. Get back to me with that once your stock is 10 bucks a share and I’ll believe that nvidia is suffering for anti AI sentiment.
How about, you focus on GPUs that don’t cost 3 months income? Better yet, pivot to making memory as well as graphics chips. FFS.
They design graphics chips; they don’t manufacture them. Nvidia designing memory wouldn’t help with the RAM shortage when all the manufacturers are already running at capacity.
Wasn’t aware of that, but now that you mention it, my own RTX 3060 is an MSI Ventus… (why did I not latch onto this one? Geez, sometimes I’m dim.)
The pennies, they be dropping…
TIL, thanks!
Not quite. When Nvidia releases a new chip, they’ll release a bunch of documentation that indicates how the chip needs to be used. How to configure it. Cooling requirements. Etc. Each Board manufacturer (like MSI) uses this documentation to manufacture the physical boards that you buy.
What OP was referring to is that NVidia doesn’t physically have a plant with a bunch of people in bunny suits walking around a clean room. Instead, they contract manufacturers and send the designs for them to build.
It’s like how Apple designs phones but Foxconn actually builds them.
Samsung was the manufacturer for the RTX 30-series chips. Then groups like MSI package them for consumers (doing things like adding cooling and outputs).
This guy?
he really likes the snakeskin jacket. Makes him look cool.
AI doomerism typically refers to the belief that AI will rise up against us and kill us all. Given that current “AI” is just a guessing machine, that won’t happen, barring substantial breakthroughs. The end-of-the-world narratives are basically marketing for AI, as in, “hey, if this thing got any smarter, it would destroy the world”.
Ohh I get it now
Yes exactly thank you for pointing it out. He’s not referring to people upset about slop or propaganda or CSAM on X, he is just doing more marketing and pretending that LLMs will somehow stop being chatbots and magically transform into something else that kills us all.
Those words were addressed to Geoffrey Hinton, who once said this
Hinton said. Biological intelligence evolved to create digital intelligence, which can absorb everything humans have created and start getting direct experience of the world.
“It may keep us around for a while to keep the power stations running, but after that, maybe not,“ he added. “We’ve figured out how to build beings that are immortal. These digital intelligences, when a piece of hardware dies, they don’t die. If … you can find another piece of hardware that can run the same instructions, you can bring it to life again. So we’ve got immortality, but it’s not for us.”
The real doomerism is that AI will take over teaching and we will have a generation that only knows what AI has lied to them about.
AI will be used to target people for death and already has been used as such. Imagine a world where you are incorrectly judged as a problem and executed when in reality you just share a terrorist’s handle.
AI will be used to create custom persuasive propaganda on the fly. It will be used to manipulate voting and to help take away our rights. It will be controlled by the uber wealthy and will be their mouthpiece spreading their bullshit far and wide.
AI is not helpful to society
You know your product is good when you blame “customers” for not using it.
We’re supposed to be the customer and the competition. Very normal
That rich assh9le can suck it from behind.
Boohoooo

AI is doing a lot of damage 🙃
And is not helpful to society.
Real
AI doomerim will continue so long as AI continues to shepherd doom
