AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on Monday said that every country needs to have its own artificial intelligence infrastructure in order to take advantage of the economic potential while protecting its own culture.

"You cannot allow that to be done by other people," Huang said at the World Government Summit in Dubai.
