Nvidia Would Stop Chip Sales If It Knew AI Was Harming People
Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang said he would stop selling chips to a customer if he knew its AI application was harming people, while cautioning that Nvidia has limited authority over how customers use its general-purpose technology. In an interview with Bloomberg’s Emily Chang, he argued that safety should be built alongside more capable AI systems through containment and monitoring, not treated as a reason to halt development.
AI Capex Boom Meets Higher Rates and Public-Market Scrutiny
Bloomberg’s Ed Ludlow framed the day’s tech selloff as a test of the AI trade’s practical limits: higher rate expectations after a solid jobs report, pressure on chip stocks after Broadcom’s outlook, and the capital demands of SpaceX’s looming IPO. Across interviews with economists, executives and investors, the program argued that enthusiasm for AI and space infrastructure remains strong, but the market is increasingly focused on whether compute, energy, supply chains and public investors can absorb the scale of spending required.
23andMe Bets a Nonprofit Model Can Revive Its DNA Platform
Bloomberg’s Emily Chang profiles Anne Wojcicki’s attempt to rebuild 23andMe after a collapse from a $5.7bn public-market valuation to bankruptcy. Wojcicki argues the company’s mistake was trying to be understood as a consumer, diagnostics and therapeutics business at once, but says its genetic database still has social and scientific value if recast as a nonprofit “open science platform.” The interview frames the comeback around the unresolved problem that made 23andMe valuable and vulnerable: persuading people to trust it with highly sensitive DNA data.
