Speaking at London Tech Week, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang called AI 'the great equaliser,' explaining how AI has transformed who can access and control computing power.
In the past, computing was limited to a select few with technical skills in languages like C++ or Python. 'We had to learn programming languages. We had to architect it. We had to design these computers that are very complicated,' Huang said.
That's no longer necessary, he explained. 'Now, all of a sudden, there's a new programming language. This new programming language is called 'human',' Huang said, highlighting how AI now understands natural language commands. 'Most people don't know C++, very few people know Python, and everybody, as you know, knows human.'
He illustrated his point with an example: asking an AI to write a poem in the style of Shakespeare. The AI delivers, he said-and if you ask it to improve, it will reflect and try again, just like a human collaborator.
For Huang, this shift is not just technical but transformational. It makes the power of advanced computing accessible to billions, not just a trained few.
