Elon Musk said he would hire Jensen Huang if Nvidia’s board removes its longtime CEO.

“That would be an honor,” Musk wrote on X Wednesday evening, responding to a post from financial news account ZeroHedge that said: “Elon please hire Jensen.”

The exchange came soon after The Wall Street Journal reported that Nvidia’s board was preparing to oust Huang following revelations about two extramarital relationships.

    As much as I dislike cheaters. At some point we need to look at the other person. She was a spy and used techniques of the trade to get him there. Whether or not he cheated isn’t really relevant to how he led that company. And what he built that company into.

      She was a spy

      Yeah, that’s the fucking point and why you don’t hear about his non-spy affair…

      Do people really think the reason this is everywhere is he cheated on his wife?!

      What does this this even mean, he was an innocent bystander in his infidelity? It definitely does matter to how he leads the company. Which is evident by the fact he had an additional affair with a subordinate, which is strictly against company policy for obvious reasons. Chances are if you lack the morals to not fuck around on your wife of however many decades, ruining a marriage with 2 kids. You may be lacking other scruples. A decision process that leads to being able to be honeypotted by a spy.

      Anyone with two brain cells to rub together can think “what are the consequences if this all goes south? If it gets revealed I cheated on my wife(twice).” The moment their relationship headed down bone alley he would have considered these things. If not, then he is clearly not capable of the decision making required for a company worth however many trillions.

      So instead of an unfaithful dupe, we should really consider him as a ponzi scheme pushing, bubble inflating, fascist supporting, money hoarding, economy ruining, billionaire (derisively) cheater? Sure. Sounds good to me.

      He earns a bazillions dollars though and from what I heard the CEO guys get it because they carry all the responsibility.

        No, probably cause that’s a garbage saying used by conmen to justify their own bullshit.

          Innocent and honest are not the same thing.
