Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced new investments in French AI-enabled technology companies during a visit to Paris, with stakes in firms including the medical booking site Doctolib.
Huang also spoke at a 'Build a claw' event in London about OpenClaw, an AI model he described as 'one of the most important models' ever seen. He outlined how OpenClaw and AI agents more broadly could drive advancements across multiple fields, from software coding and marketing to scientific research and drug discovery. He characterised the technology as akin to 'LLMs inside an exoskeleton' when applied to robotics.
Huang emphasised the need for proper controls on the technology, particularly for humanoid robotics applications. He stated the controls were necessary 'so we can realize the incredible future potential of the technology that we're building'. He highlighted OpenClaw as the 'first credible' agentic system for robotics use.
