Nvidia denies viral photo of Jensen Huang in studded leather jacket

worldjournal.com (Chinese) —

A viral photo allegedly showing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in a studded leather jacket has been debunked as fake by the company, highlighting the growing difficulty of verifying images in the age of AI tools. The image, which circulated amid online rumors about Huang, was altered from a photo of him at Seoul's Gimpo Airport in June. Nvidia's spokesperson confirmed the rock-star style jacket was not real, though the post drew thousands of reactions. Huang is known for his signature black leather jackets, owning 30 to 40 of them, which he says simplify daily decisions. One of his Tom Ford jackets sold for nearly $1 million at auction earlier this year.
