I also agree Felon Musk should hire him, and grant access to vital confidential information, just to prove the point.

Sweeney is a moron, but I actually hope he is right this time. It would make me very happy to see Nvidia, the mastermind company of the entire AI-bubble we are living in now, crash and burn.

Sadly, as already stated, Sweeney is a moron, and he is most likely not right.

InCEOl.

They do manage to transfer their antisocial traits to their companies tho, so, as someone who's been holding a grudge with nVidia for over 20 years, I'm happy to see him go.

Selection bias is doing a lot of work too.

he got them through some real murky situations and championed very nascent tech like CUDA

Nobody with any sense thought otherwise.

CEOs are responsible.

I love Steve-O's story of buying a phone with Wozniak.

They go to the Apple store, Woz walks up to the counter and says "I'd like to use my employee discount to buy a phone." The employee asks if he has his card, he says "no but I know my employee number." The employee then asks for the number, expecting to get something with multiple digits, and Wozniak just replies with "One."

If that isn't the biggest dick energy response to a question I've ever heard.

These people don't give af about Woz.

Interim. Replacement yet to come.

Spilling not just secrets

They just look out for their own

Yeah they got lucky and then convinced themselves they are geniuses.

It's every CEO of every billion dollar company.

Gabe Newell is not removed.

Well, I'd say his affair with a subordinate was problematic as well, but the treason is pretty important.

Amoral assholes shouldn't be in charge of anything

Timmy has been crashing the fuck out lately, so I’m going to assume this is an original.

Worse?

Tim should raise capex for the massive AI costs by fundraising through twitch style streams where gamers pay him to sit quietly in a chair and keep his mouth shut.

There could even be a Q&A section where questions are asked to Tim and he still isn't allowed to talk or else he loses all the funds he raised for that day.

Tim "software is hard" Sweeney, who is the CEO of a software company? That Tim Sweeney?

Never. Why would prices ever drop? RAM manufacturers know what they can get away with now, because everyone needs the products this cartel is making. They also know that current prices are nowhere near the maximum of what a captive market will pay for.

Don't get your hopes up with China either. Demand is so high that Chinese RAM can be barely any cheaper or cost the same and still sell out. They have no interest in reducing prices either, especially since it's extremely unlikely they are making a profit yet.

I've still not seen the specifics/details about the spy fucking, or at least one detail that's really important.

I saw stories that she'd sent like >$2 billion worth of chips to china, 'smuggled' those chips to china.

The big question is, is it 'smuggling' as in NVIDIA didn't get paid, or is it 'smuggling' as in NVIDIA saw $2 billion on the table, and said "Fuck US sanctions, we're a company and we like money!". I've a strong suspicion its closer to the latter. Especially since the USA went fascist, and started pissing off every ally -- China's a more stable business partner.

Americans may foolishly wonder "OMG where'd our soft power go?!" -- but they elected a dictator who has explicitly worked to destroy America's reputation and soft power/influence globally. Even America ignores America's sanctions, they declare new sanctions against Russia in the morning, then announce deals to buy diesel from Russia in the afternoon -- why wouldn't any other country or company view America's dictates as a joke? Even SpaceX/Musk, the guy that worked at DOGE for the White House and had access to all of America's data systems, does business regularly with Russia. The Trump's literally welcomed a Russian oligarchs asset into their family, marrying her to Don Jr to solidify their bond, while America makes these silly motions about sanctions.

The industry is trying to play up Jensen's affairs as the reason for the AI route in the market. It's an attempt to lead the media down a different path, to distract from the grass roots push back against AI / data center spends, and the unjustified stock prices of these companies given their lack of profitable products.

Uhh, that’s what he’s talking about. He’s saying firing Jensen would be as stupid as when Apple fired Jobs.

It’s a stupid comparison, of course.
