Nvidia CEO: Society needs new 'new social norms' in the age of AI. I used to play in the streets. When cars came along, you obviously can’t play in the streets now

I grew up long after cars had already become commonplace in our city but we still played in our residential street for drivers had learned to navigate safely around playing children.
Are you sure you didn't stop when you became a billionaire?
I became a dollar billionaire somewhere around fifteen years ago when a friend gave me a 5 billion dollar banknote from the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, still legal tender at the time. At that time I was already too old to play in the street like a child, but I still to this very day walk in the street in front of where I live every day.
"I used to have a living wage, friends I could talk to, affordable energy and water and intelligence that allowed me to think critically and make decisions for myself. When billionaires came along with their glorified digital parrots, you obviously can't have all that now."
Is he going senile since he wants to play in the streets again?
I support the idea of him playing in traffic.
We simply need to tax billionaires at 99% and codify copyright law to require that AI training data is explicitly licensed by the rights holders.
What we are seeing right now is a turducken of exploitation of the working and creative class by techno-oligarchs, and we must reject it.
I am 55 and grew up in Boston. We played on the streets all the time. "car!" and "game on!" were the norm. This guy is just an asshole.
Is he claiming that he predates the Ford Model T?
He grew up in Taiwan & Thailand so in the 60s/70s so it's possible, not everywhere was as car pilled as the US then
“We need to create new social norms,” Huang said in an interview. “I would advocate that everybody use AI. Just go engage it.”
"Guy who sells shovels wants us to dig holes."
New social norms should include making hunting billionaires for sport acceptable
You know I think that if we conducted an actual survey I suspect that most people would say that it already is.
translation: I need new social norms
Funny way to spell "regulations".
Microsoft taking Ls left and right for the past week.
And before people jump in saying that they been taking Ls before, I know that. It is just a barrage of Ls that is happening right now opposed to occasional dozen of Ls per year.
Do these new social norms include taxing the ultra-rich, to help subsidize the retraining and re-employing of many people who’s jobs will lost due to AI?
They do! He just doesn't realize it yet.
how old is this motherfucker, 100?
Apparently he’s 63. So he would have played in the streets in 1960ies Taiwan or Thailand. Both countries where most people couldn’t afford cars at the time.
Here in Germany, we can still play in the streets in 2026. We have streets designated for it.
What you have there is called a path.
It happens in the UK too. Kids play in the street, and get out of the way, if someone needs to drive through or park. Conversely, car drivers keep the speed down and give the kids time to get out of the way.
Everyone wins, and no, it's definitely a road not a path.
Yeah because he was born before the age of cars, what a dick head.
I have no idea what point he is trying to make other than we need to just accept AI. The thing is his analogy doesn't work, you were never supposed to be playing in the streets, that was always where the cars went They're just didn't used to be as many cars.
Humans are supposed to be using their brains on the regular, offloading cognitive effort is just going to result in there being two classes of human, the brainless trolls that need an AI to think about anything at all, and the smart people who actually get things done. The AI companies are just trying to advance the brainless zombie class as much as possible.
