'This would be an Apple firing Steve Jobs level of idiocy' says Tim Sweeney at the idea of ousting Jensen Huang - while Elon Musk says 'it would be an honor' to hire the Nvidia chief

While the Nvidia board reportedly mulls over the idea of ousting CEO Jensen Huang, after his admission of an affair and suspicions of another have come to light, some powerful figures in the tech industry have taken to X to give comment.

Epic CEO Tim Sweeney has put forward perhaps the strongest advocacy for keeping the Nvidia chief in place, beginning with the phrase "Save Jensen."

Save Jensen.This would be an Apple firing Steve Jobs level of idiocy from NVIDIA’s board if they did that, and a grievous harm to the United States of America.The dude truly is the visionary driver of the future of tech from the gaming GPU era to CUDA to AI supercomputers.November 12, 2026

"This would be an Apple firing Steve Jobs level of idiocy from Nvidia’s board if they did that, and a grievous harm to the United States of America," says Sweeney. "The dude truly is the visionary driver of the future of tech from the gaming GPU era to CUDA to AI supercomputers"

Given Sweeney's well-documented advocacy of the wonders of AI, it's perhaps no surprise that he's leaping to the defence of one of its chief architects. Elon Musk, meanwhile, has responded to an X user asking him to hire Huang, presumably if everything goes south with the Nvidia board.

"That would be an honor," said Musk, before the thread inevitably descends into AI-generated images of what a Huang/Musk teamup might look like.

Would Huang really rehash the old " let that sink in " joke for giggles?
