Welp, that's it, the face of Nvidia is no longer the face of Nvidia. Jensen Huang served as CEO of the company since it was founded over three decades ago, and now he's out, replaced by the new interim CEO Colette Kress, who was previously Chief Financial Officer (exactly what we predicted, by the way).
This is in the wake of two affair scandals surrounding the former CEO. The first affair Huang admitted to, and it's alleged that the other party in the tango is a lady who is currently accused of being a Chinese spy. The second is a reported affair that Huang allegedly had with Nvidia's VP of healthcare, Kimberly Powell.
Many people expected Huang's resignation in the lead-up to this, so it is no big surprise that it has now been announced by Nvidia. But now that it's official, the response has largely been as expected: a combination of disappointment at his resignation and praise for his time as Nvidia CEO.
President Trump certainly expressed as much, saying Huang has done a "fantastic job." Trump also has a suggestion for who should take over: ex-Apple CEO Tim Cook: "Now that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who has done a fantastic job, has resigned, there is only one man to take his place - Tim Cook of Apple. A Legend replaces a Legend! President Donald J. Trump."
Hugging Face co-founder Clement Delangue expresses the general sentiment : "This whole thing sucks, and I wish none of it had happened.
