Jensen Huang Envisions “Physical AI” as the Future of Innovation

During a recent visit to Beijing, NVIDIA co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang shared his thoughts on the future of technology and education. When asked what he would study if he were 20 years old today, Huang revealed he would pivot away from software and instead dive into the physical sciences. His reasoning? To contribute to the rise of “physical AI”—a transformative field at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and real-world engineering. Huang believes this convergence will fuel the next wave of technological breakthroughs and redefine how machines interact with the physical world.
