“The number of engineers, software engineers is actually increasing. People talk about AI reducing jobs. Complete nonsense. It's causing more software engineers to be hired. And the reason for that is very simple. If you can hire a software engineer and you could generate $9 trillion worth of productive work, why wouldn't you want to hire more software engineers?”

About Jensen Huang
Jensen Huang delivered the keynote at Computex 2026 in Taipei on May 31, where he announced the RTX Spark superchip developed in partnership with MediaTek, a new product line that he said would "reinvent the personal computer" alongside Microsoft. Huang stated that the chip, which includes a Blackwell RTX GPU and 128 GB of unified memory, is designed to run AI agents locally on devices. He also announced that the company's Vera CPUs for data centers are in full production, describing them as "the CPU for the age of agents." During a subsequent appearance at Microsoft Build, Huang told Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella that "Vera Rubin was created for a world where these AIs are now agentic." Huang rejected the idea that AI reduces employment, calling the notion "complete nonsense." Speaking at Computex, he cited GitHub data showing that the number of software code commits had nearly tripled in early 2026 and argued that AI is turning $3 trillion in developer salaries into $9 trillion of economic productivity, making companies more likely to hire additional software engineers. During a brief visit to South Korea in early June, Huang said the "AI build out is accelerating" and identified robotics as "the next major sector" for investment in the country.
