I imagine there's a lot of mixed emotions at Nvidia. Jensen seemed to have a very likable persona about him and he truly was a great CEO of the company. I imagine many looked up to him and are left to make sense of the past week.<p>They've also taken a pretty big pay cut this week and potentially into the future.
At the end of the day he hasn't been accused of harassment. The two employees he banged didn't complain that he pressured them into banging him. It is still wrong to bang your employees, and there should be penalties for that. But can't he be punished in a way that doesn't also punish the industry, the economy and US competitiveness?
Goddamn! He had affairs with 1600 employees?
Why? Seriously why would you take part in this? This shows bad judgement.
I think it's odd the amount of flak this guy took for relationships with adult women, while those involved with Epstein remain mosly undisturbed. If the AI bubble bursts soon, I wonder if people will try to blame Huang's extramarital affairs for it, instead of the rampant misallocation of resources.
It would be a convenient "accountability sink" to free them from having to examine the structural causes.
Imagine the world where the Epstein creeps and the Jensen creep could be held accountable for their actions.<p>Don't fuck subordinates. He did this in his company and a partner company. I'm sure we've all had the opportunity- just don't.
