一位科技界的特朗普关键盟友正在大肆宣扬移民的好处。英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋本人是来自台湾的移民，他在最近的一期播客节目中表示，他认为美国需要保持其作为顶尖科技人才吸引者的地位 — — 即使这些工人来自美国境外。“我们希望世界上所有伟大的思想家都来到这里，带来他们的伟大想法，”黄仁勋在Bg2播客节目中说。
A key Trump ally in the tech world is trumpeting the benefits of immigration. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, himself an immigrant from Taiwan, said on a recent podcast that he believes the United States needs to maintain its status as an attractor of top tech talent — even if those workers come from outside the United States. "We want all the world's great minds to come here, bring their great ideas," Huang said on the Bg2 podcast.
“知识产流入这个国家的规模是世界上从未见过的。”尽管黄仁勋表示移民必须“合法”进入该国，但他也认为保持良好平衡是必要的。“当然我们想这么做，”他说到吸引外国人才。黄仁勋的激烈言论与特朗普政府的议程形成冲突，该政府一直试图打击H-1B签证 — — 这通常是科技工作者进入该国的第一道门槛 — — 作为其更广泛移民打击行动的一部分。
"The inflow of intellectual property into this country is unlike anything else the world's ever seen." Though Huang said immigrants must enter the country "lawfully," he said that striking a good balance is necessary. "Surely we want to do it," he said of attracting foreign talent. Huang's spirited comments clash with the Trump administration's agenda, which has sought to crack down on H-1B visas — often the first gateway for tech workers entering the country — as part of its wider crackdown on immigration.
在给《商业内幕》的一份声明中，白宫发言人表示：“美国有足够的头脑和双手来增长我们的劳动力，特朗普总统为美国工人创造就业的议程代表了本届政府致力于挖掘这一未被开发潜力的承诺。”去年9月，特朗普签署了一项行政命令，为新的H-1B申请设定10万美元的费用，由雇佣外籍工人的公司承担。一些赞助H-1B签证的顶尖科技公司包括亚马逊、微软、Alphabet、Meta和苹果。
In a statement to Business Insider, a White House spokeswoman said, "There is no shortage of American minds and hands to grow our labor force, and President Trump's agenda to create jobs for American workers represents this Administration's commitment to capitalizing on that untapped potential." In September last year, Trump signed an executive order setting a $100,000 fee for new H-1B applications, to be paid by companies hiring the foreign workers. Some of the top tech companies sponsoring H-1B visas include Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Apple.
随后，上周，万斯和其他美国官员在新闻发布会上表示，政府正在禁止微软和Adobe参与一个联邦签证担保计划，该计划将H-1B签证与绿卡挂钩。“如果你算一下账，微软裁掉的每一名工人，他们都用一名半名外国契约劳工来取代，”万斯在新闻发布会上说。黄仁勋已经成为特朗普在科技界更可靠的盟友之一。
Then, last week, Vance and other US officials said during a press conference that the administration was banning Microsoft and Adobe from a federal visa sponsorship program that links an H-1B visa to a green card. "If you do the math, for every worker that Microsoft laid off, they replaced that worker with one and a half foreign indentured servants," Vance said during the press conference. Huang has emerged as one of Trump's more reliable allies in the tech world.
黄上个月曾表示，AI首席执行官们出于“别有用心”的原因，正在吓唬人们谈论这项技术，他称这种行为是“不负责任”和“不必要的”。“我们不需要更多的法规，”黄说。“我们需要应用我们目前已有的法规。”在一系列失控AI事件之后，特朗普在权衡一些AI首席执行官关于监管新兴行业的呼声时，最终采取了与黄观点一致的做法。
Huang said last month that AI CEOs were scaring people about the tech for "ulterior reasons," an act he called "irresponsible" and "unnecessary." "We don't need more regulations," Huang said. "We need to apply the current regulations we have." As Trump weighed calls from some AI CEOs to regulate the burgeoning industry after a series of rogue AI incidents, the president ultimately took an approach aligned with Huang's view.
英伟达未回应《商业内幕》的置评请求。10月8日在白宫举行的活动中，特朗普向六位首席执行官颁发了科学和技术奖章。其中只有迈克尔·戴尔出生于美国。其余五人 — — SpaceX的埃隆·马斯克、微软的萨蒂亚·纳德拉、谷歌的谢尔盖·布林以及台湾的Lisa Su — — 均出生于国外。
Nvidia did not respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. At an October 8 event at the White House, Trump gave science and tech medals to six CEOs. Only one of them, Michael Dell, was born in the United States. The rest — Elon Musk of SpaceX, Satya Nadella of Microsoft, Sergey Brin of Google, and Lisa Su of Taiwan — were born abroad.
