Huang rejects need for new laws

The executive stated that existing legal frameworks are sufficient to govern the technology. He described AI as hardware and software built by humans rather than an alien mind. Consequently, he believes current laws can control these computing systems effectively.

Market forces ensure product safety

Huang argued that free market pressure will stop companies from releasing unsafe products. He suggested that businesses should not launch services unless they are confident in their functionality and safety. This approach relies on market appreciation rather than legislative intervention to pace development.

Innovation and safety are linked

The CEO claimed that innovation speed and safe products are not a false choice. He insisted that companies must decide when to run as fast as they can without new rules. Huang concluded that developing computing systems is ultimately a matter of engineering confidence.
