Jensen Huang, the chipmaker’s chief executive, is trying to balance his company’s interests as the United States and China compete for supremacy in artificial intelligence.

How an engineer turned tech mogul became the most influential voice in AI and a key figure in Trump’s trade diplomacy with China.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's visit to Beijing involved praising China's tech and EVs, even calling them world-class. This occurred after the U.S. relaxed AI chip sale rules as part of a trade agreement.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang hailed Chinese AI models like DeepSeek as world-class, adding that AI is ‘fundamental infrastructure’ akin to electricity. Speaking in Beijing, he called China's open-source AI a ‘catalyst for global progress’.

Nvidia Corp.’s Jensen Huang spent months telling everyone what a grave mistake the US was making restricting shipments of artificial intelligence processors to China — with little sign that his argument was swaying anyone.
