Nvidia Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang on Tuesday said that the burgeoning field of artificial intelligence will create powerful tools that require legal regulation and social norms that have yet to be worked out.

Huang is one of the most prominent figures in artificial intelligence because Nvidia’s chips are widely used in the field, including in a supercomputer that Microsoft built for startup OpenAI, in which Microsoft said Monday it was making a multibillion-dollar investment.

Huang was speaking at an event in Stockholm, where officials said Tuesday they were upgrading Sweden’s fastest supercomputer using tools from Nvidia to, among other things, develop what is known as a large language model that will be fluent in Swedish.

“What is the social norm for using it? What the legal norms (are) for using it have to be developed,” Huang said. “Everything is evolving right now. The fact that we’re all talking about it puts us in a much better place to eventually end up at a good place.”
