Jensen Huang: From Dishwasher to Nvidia's Fall

Jensen Huang, who once washed dishes at a US restaurant, has stepped down as head of Nvidia, the world's most valuable tech company, following personal controversies that impacted corporate governance and credibility. Huang co-founded Nvidia in 1993 after working as a dishwasher and waiter at a Denny's restaurant from 1978 to 1983. The company grew from a struggling startup into a trillion-dollar empire, pioneering GPUs and the CUDA platform that became essential for training AI models like ChatGPT. Born in Taiwan in 1963, Huang earned degrees from Oregon State and Stanford. Known for his signature black leather jacket, he expanded Nvidia beyond gaming into data centers, automotive, healthcare, and scientific research over three decades.
