Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang argues that AI increases productivity and creates demand for more software engineers rather than replacing them.Summary
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang dismissed concerns that AI will replace human workers, calling such fears “complete nonsense.” During his GTC keynote, Huang highlighted that GitHub activity has surged in 2026, with code commits nearly tripling. He argues that AI enables developers to generate significantly more economic value, which in turn incentivizes companies to hire more software engineers rather than fewer. While some concerns persist regarding the quality of AI-generated code, such as the influx of “AI slop” in open-source projects, Huang maintains that the technology serves as a powerful productivity multiplier.
