Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang defends Open Source AI by saying distillation is fundamental to learning
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang “Distillation - learning from AI, learning from other people, and learning from other sources of knowledge, is fundamental to intelligence. We are constantly learning from one
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang “Distillation - learning from AI, learning from other people, and learning from other sources of knowledge, is fundamental to intelligence. We are constantly learning from one another. AI also has to learn from something.” In his Axios interview, Jensen explains why seeing distillation as theft or a threat misses the point—and why the real future of AI depends on continuous knowledge sharing between models. The idea is simple: as AI generates most of the internet’s content, systems will naturally learn from one another, much like humans do from books, teachers, and peers. Blocking that exchange doesn’t protect anyone; it only slows progress. Smarter AI is safer AI, open models boost adoption, and the whole industry, from developers to chipmakers gains. It’s a clear, grounded case for why open and closed models feeding each other is a feature, not a flaw. submitted by /u/ImaginaryRea1ity [link] [comments]
