D’Ornano + Co. founder and managing partner Raphaëlle d’Ornano said Nvidia’s central position in the AI ecosystem means a disruption at the company could have catastrophic consequences.
“If something happens to Nvidia, it’s going to be a catastrophe,” she told France 24 journalist Erin Ogunkeye. France 24 published the interview Nov. 10.
Separately, d’Ornano called competition over frontier AI an “economic war.” She said the contest carries consequences for economies, military affairs and society.
France 24’s accompanying description also identified political resistance to AI infrastructure and tensions over corporate power and geopolitics in the sector. The description also pointed to rapid technological progress across the sector. The comments on frontier AI’s broader stakes were separate from d’Ornano’s warning about an event involving Nvidia.
