Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to everyone: Here’s what changed about AI in 2025 and what it means in 2026

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the direction of artificial intelligence (AI) in the coming years will depend on how quickly the technology is built, who is given access to it and how it is governed. In a recent blog post, Huang outlined how developments in 2025 changed the trajectory of AI and what they could mean for 2026. The post provides a glimpse into Huang’s perspectives during a period when the expansion of AI systems heavily relies on Nvidia’s chips. Huang rarely publishes long essays about the broader impact of the technology, making the post an uncommon look at his perspective on the industry’s next phase. Huang wrote that the rapid growth in demand for AI chips, infrastructure, and talent suggests the industry is still in the early stages of what he described as a long-term buildout.
