Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang addressed the 128th commencement ceremony at Carnegie Mellon University, stating that the traditional computing paradigm, which lasted approximately 60 years, has concluded. According to Odaily, Huang emphasized that AI is driving a shift from 'human-written software' to 'machine learning-generated capabilities.'
Huang noted that while certain tasks like programming and medical imaging analysis are becoming automated, AI primarily amplifies human abilities rather than simply replacing humans. He remarked, 'AI is unlikely to replace you, but someone who uses AI better than you might.'
Reflecting on Nvidia's early challenges, Huang recounted the company's near-bankruptcy due to issues with chip architecture delivery, which led them to request contract termination from Sega. Nvidia survived thanks to continued payments from Sega.
Huang concluded by stating that AI infrastructure development will be one of the largest technological infrastructure investments in human history, urging graduates to 'run, don't walk.'
