On the 10th (current time), Bloomberg reported that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said at a Goldman Sachs technology conference held in San Francisco that “cyber security is likely to become the next core application area of AI.” He emphasized that as AI models become more advanced, programming automation speeds up, leading to an increased rate of exploitation of security vulnerabilities and accelerated patching, causing overall change in the cyber‑security industry.
CEO Huang said, “What better way to create value than making a problem?” He explained how AI increases security threats while simultaneously boosting profits. He noted that in marketing the cyber‑security space there are responsible ways and irresponsible ways to execute it. This was intended to reassure investors that AI‑driven data‑center investment will continue.
Meanwhile, Huang rebutted the debate over “exchange transactions” surrounding Hugging Face acquisition. Nvidia recently announced that it would acquire the open‑source AI model sharing platform Hugging Face for $13 billion (approximately 17 trillion 5000 billion). He said, “We invest relatively small amounts to gain more money, so this is not an exchange transaction; we realize that the target is not just an investment but also a strategic acquisition.” This content simultaneously illuminates AI and cyber security as well as corporate strategic investments.
