Musk Says He Would Hire Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang If Ousted

businessinsider.jp (Japanese) —

Elon Musk has indicated he would hire Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang if the company's board removes him, following reports of potential dismissal amid alleged personal scandals. Musk responded "that would be an honor" to a social media post suggesting the hire. The Wall Street Journal reported Nvidia's board is preparing to oust Huang after two extramarital affairs surfaced, one involving a woman suspected by U.S. intelligence of spying for China. These allegations have not been independently verified by Business Insider. Musk's comment echoes a 2010 Silicon Valley scandal when Oracle's Larry Ellison hired Mark Hurd after HP's board fired him. Huang, who co-founded Nvidia in 1993, is a key figure in AI, and Musk's companies are major buyers of Nvidia GPUs.
