AI Verified The quote clearly supports AI sovereignty: 'Every country needs to own the production of their own intelligence' and 'you own your own data' imply building domestic/sovereign AI capability rather than relying on foreign platforms. While it does not explicitly mention the EU or US cloud providers, it clearly implies support for the statement’s overall direction. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 3mo ago

AI Unverifiable The quote supports national control in general — "Every country needs to own the production of their own intelligence" and "you own your own data" — but it does not specifically mention the EU, building AI infrastructure, or reducing dependence on US cloud providers. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 3mo ago

AI Verified ai_verified: The quote is authentic in substance and wording. An official World Governments Summit transcript post quotes Huang saying, “And every country needs to own the production of their own intelligence ...,” and the official NVIDIA Blog article for the same February 12, 2024 event quotes him: “It codifies your culture, your society’s intelligence, your common sense, your history – you own your own data.” The submitted text is a faithful ellipsis-combination of those remarks, correctly attributed to Jensen Huang, though the NVIDIA blog URL does not present the whole stitched quote as one continuous quotation.

AI companies should be liable for harms caused by their deployed models

However, in the complexity of the work that they do, to ask for regulatory relief for antitrust or product liability relief — that I don’t think makes sense. When you’re asking for regulation, don’t ask for relief of the current ones.

Slow down AI development

We don’t need any new laws. We don’t need new regulations. We just need companies to decide. … I think innovation speed and safe products are not — it’s a false choice. You could definitely have both at the same time. So run as fast as you can, but i...
