Nvidia CEO Invited to Trump-Xi State Dinner Amid AI and Tech Competition
Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang is set to attend a state dinner hosted by US President Donald Trump for Chinese President Xi Jinping on September 24. This high-profile diplomatic event will bring together leaders from two of the world's top nations, and AI is expected to be one of the topics discussed.
Huang has maintained close ties with Trump and was among a select group of US business leaders who traveled to China with the president earlier this year. He also attended a state dinner hosted by Xi for Trump during the US president's visit to China in May, alongside Elon Musk and former Apple CEO Tim Cook.
Nvidia is a major supplier of chips used by AI developers, while the United States and China remain the two leading forces in the development and deployment of advanced AI systems. The company's presence at this event highlights its role in the ongoing competition between these two tech giants.
