Nvidia and Anthropic CEOs diverge on AI safety at Dreamforce: Huang says fast vs. pacing is 'false choice'

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang shared differing views on artificial intelligence safety during Salesforce's Dreamforce conference, days after the debate burst into the mainstream. Amodei took the stage first with Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, during his annual keynote, an appearance that followed an essay Amodei published over the weekend urging the industry to slow the pace of model development. "I think that's the way to lead the industry forward, to set an example, to say that everyone can always be better," Amodei told Benioff on Tuesday, in front of about 12,000 people at San Francisco's Moscone Center.
