NVIDIA's Huang: US must lead AI
Huang made it clear he's against letting China access NVIDIA's newest chips.
He believes the US needs to stay ahead in AI by having "the first, the most and the best" technology.
Still, he pointed out that China remains a tough competitor thanks to its strong science scene, rapid AI research, and cheaper energy, even without top-tier American tech.
