Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said, during a trip to Beijing this week, that if he were a student today, he’d focus on the physical sciences.

Nvidia Corp. boss Jensen Huang lauded DeepSeek and China’s other contributions to AI research as he met with political and tech leaders in Beijing.

Jensen Huang extolled China’s technological advances and said President Trump wouldn’t mind his meetings in Beijing.

With help from a longtime Silicon Valley investor turned White House insider, Mr. Huang got the administration to reverse course on restrictions.

Only a few years ago, the Biden administration declared export controls a “new strategic asset” to help the US maintain “as large a lead as possible” over China in advanced technology. President Donald Trump is now upending that approach.

At the Beijing Expo, Jensen Huang also announced plans for a new chip for Chinese clients that is designed for robotics and smart factories.

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 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.
