Jensen’s wife of over 40 years whom he before founding Nvidia
Hey, at least we can be certain a human wrote this article, right?
Now whether its good journalism or not, that’s up for debate.
If he’s willing to cheat on his wife, he’s willing to cheat on his country
Do it girl! Cash him out!
Mackenzie Bezos and Melinda Gates will welcome you.
She deserves it, she helped him build his company after college I think
For those not in the over 50 crowd - Jensen done fucked up. Lori is quite the catch.
I don’t think you should judge Jensen like that. Unless you’ve experienced affection through a foreign government’s honey pot scheme for corporate espionage … there’s just no true love like that. /s
He really Huang himself there.
Lmao, didn’t a guy from Enron do the same thing?
He knew Enron was about to fail but couldn’t sell his shares on the company so faked an affair and divorce so he was forced to sell his shares to pay for the divorce and was able to cash before the shares plunged
Found him: Lou Pai. He had an affair with a stripper and I don’t think he was totally faking it because she got pregnant (or maybe he was really committed to the bit). But yes, he was very high up the corporate ladder and the timing of it was highly suspect.
People have babies for way dumber reasons than cashing out millions/billions.
IIRC from the book The Smartest Guys in the Room Lou Pai was a frequent strip club visitor.
I’m gonna butcher this, but the story was he would cover himself in cologne to hide the smell before he went home from the club. A coworker he was with asked “wouldn’t you just smell like a glittery person with booze and cologne?” And got subsequently fired for that.
But yes, he was very high up the corporate ladder and the timing of it was highly suspect.
Lmao it was just scams all the way down.
If they reside in a no-fault state, the infidelity is immaterial to divorce.
lets put a big ding on my reputation so i got an excuse to liquify my assets, priorities i guess
Would you rather be a bizarrely rich brief nothing-scandal now laying on a Mexican beach, or a poor nobody on a subway?
those were not his choices
His choices might have been more Never-gonna-work-again-rich disappearing to fuckoff nowhere, or rich but still working. Not much of a choice really.
Who knows, maybe he didn’t like his wife anyway.
But the real question is: who gets the jacket???
Haha, I was going to point out he’s not wearing the leather jacket in this pic.
I don’t get his obsession with it, he’s always worn it, and for the tech industry, that’s even more quirky.
It’s like Zuckerburg’s old white t-shirt thing or Steve Jobs with his turtleneck.
It’s an easy way to get PR as a tech bro, especially in the modern day where one of your main goals is appealing to young men who both buy your products and vote for the people who control how your products are purchased
A lot of famous people have a very simple outfit to discourage photographers.
If you look exactly the same from one day to the next, nobody can make money off taking pictures of you.
I think this is more about the personal branding
Agreed: They are such soulless uncreative homunculi they believe mundane clothing like a “white tee shirt” or “a black jacket” is a fashion statement. Now that I think about it, their sense of fashion being limited to just one single complimentary article of clothing was probably the first hint tbh.
it’s like Zuckerberg’s
old white t-shirt thingskinsuitFTFY
I was informed awhile back that my chronic dehumanization of Zuckerberg was technically tied to antisemitic tropes awhile back so I’ve been trying to avoid doing that lol but I appreciate the fix!
My thinking is if there’s anyone we know who loves antisemitism, it’s definitely gonna be the guy who made Facebook.
It’s the humanization of Zuckerberg we need to worry about!
It’s jackets. A massive collection.
Imagine building the world’s most valuable AI chip company only to discover that the most expensive single point of failure is your personal life. The $75 billion figure is speculative, but Nvidia having no obvious succession plan is the part shareholders should actually be sweating.
He didn’t “build” shit. Nvidia didn’t become one of the biggest companies overnight because they innovated anything. They just happened to be making video game hardware that was dual use. First for crypto, then for AI. He’s rode the crest of the AI bubble to galactic overvaluation. If she gets this settlement, she’s arguably done more to earn that money than him.
Uhhh dude that “video game hardware” is basically fucking alien technology from the hardware itself, let alone all of firmware / software.
Although he might’ve just been the poster boy, it is very evident that he has been great for engineering at Nvidia as a CEO, given where they were at before AI was even a thing. Without researching the fuck out of him, I frankly find it impossible to believe that he hasn’t been extremely hands on in many ways with their success, even if it’s been from a very top-down manner.
It pains me to write all of this as someone who despises most of these tech bro CEO losers.
Note: this isn’t the compliment it’s possibly gonna sound like: Jensen is the CEO that Musk wishes he was.
I think the innovation was more CUDA than the hardware. AMD and Intel were never really that far behind them.
You mean ATI before it was AMD, and Intel…well intel is still trying to find relevance. I agree with ‘dou9m.’ We shouldn’t downplay this dude’s accomplishment. Most gamers only saw their awesome grahics card as that…until crypto and now AI. I remember when RIVA 128 came out and basically mopped every other card on the market off the market? 3DFX, where are you…Matrox, where are you?
Matrox still exists and still makes graphics cards, just not consumer ones.
Nvidia bought out 3DFX’s patent library, it’s where they got their SLI tech for instance.
All I’ll say is there’s a very clear reason why China is doing everything possible to try and undermine Taiwan and it does not shock me at all that they honeypotted Jensen.
You know who wouldn’t have an affair as a CEO?
AI
In before Siri gets Claude pregnant.
WE still don’t know why the AI companies hacked each other. Does an AI hacking another AI count as some sort of violation of another intelligent entity?
The more important question is “do AIs fuck?”
I find it incredibly difficult to take this article seriously
Many basic errors in the article, including in the first sentence
That pales in comparison to the biggest error: The author forgot Bill and Melinda Gates divorced
That alone undermines the entire premise of the article. Their divorce was bigger
What weird phrasing. A windfall isn’t being rich, then continuing to be rich… Also, it’s not a surprise… None of this meets the definition of a windfall.
Rich lady divorces rich husband, continues to rich richingly
Go girl. She supported his shit from the start and deserves better.
How can you be a billionaire and not have a prenup? I didn’t think that existed.
The company was founded after they got married. They may have had a prenup, but it probably didn’t cover a company he would build in the future. I’m not even sure if you could word one like that, only if it already existed.
Well in that case it’s considered a postnup. But yeah it cab be done. Given the baseline divorce rate and the incentive this kind of money would add toward pushing for a divorce, I think it would be nuts not to do this.
What is this bullshit title? The article is even worse.
This is like 1950s mentality. She isn’t going to earn anything, she is not getting a windfall.
She is a partner in their life marriage arrangement, and if the other partner leaves they will need to split up the partnership.
How much remains to be seen, and negotiations will occur, but unless a pre-nuptial, she already has this.
She isn’t going to earn anything, she is not getting a windfall.
California is a community property state. That means she is entitled to half of their combined wealth.
Yes, that’s my point. She is not getting a windfall, she already has it.
You really think she has control of 75 billion dollars? HE doesn’t even have control of that 75 billion yet.
My point is how the article is written, if they cash out for 75 the partnership gets 75. If they want to call it a windfall its for both of them.
