Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang believes artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics can help Taiwan solve its growing labor shortage. Speaking in Taipei, Huang said that 2025 is a major turning point for AI, with new systems capable of solving complex problems step-by-step. These systems, called agentic AI, can handle tasks with little human help.

Huang explained that agentic AI can now think through problems, making it helpful for work and personal life. He said Taiwan should expand its use of AI and robots to boost economic opportunities.

He also discussed Nvidia’s latest AI technology, the Blackwell GPU, designed to support heavy AI workloads. This new microarchitecture will power Taiwan’s upcoming AI supercomputer.

Foxconn, through its subsidiary Big Innovation Company, is working with Nvidia and the Taiwanese government to build an advanced AI factory. This facility will use 10,000 Nvidia Blackwell GPUs to offer massive computing power to researchers, businesses, and startups.

According to Nvidia, this AI infrastructure will help fuel innovation across Taiwan. “Our partners are in full production,” said Huang, adding that AI will soon spread worldwide thanks to partnerships like these.

Huang’s comments also come after he criticized U.S. export controls on AI chips to China, calling them ineffective.

As Taiwan faces labor challenges due to its aging population, agentic AI and robotics could offer timely solutions by reducing dependency on human workers while growing its tech economy.
