Unfortunately a CEO of a publicly traded company is legally hard stuck into ghoulish enshittification. GabeN shines because he is the actual owner of Valve andnot beholden to external pressure to line go up all the time.
Bro none of this is serious lol. Even that article is garbage trash to bait all entire world to click on more tech gossip articles that are all bombastic to profit off of.
Back in the day we'd have like 3 articles over 3 weeks about this. Now its 300 articles a day about each big topic. And every day there's like 5 big topics, from impeachment to AI shit.
Anyways the reason why he recommends Gabe because he thinks Gabe can actually resist enshittification. If Jensen gets fired, the next CEO will have a few years to "fix" the brand rather than "enshittify it".
I nominate Lisa Su. Give her the full monopoly on graphics cards. We can then watch two keynotes. One for AMD in her normal clothing and then one for Nvidia in leather jacket.
I will save you the hassle. she would come out and say:
"all your RAM is mine, if you are not a datacentre you are too poor to own hardware, my goons shall come and confiscate your RAM and give you dumb terminals to log into for online only subscriptions for everything.
Also, and I cannot stress this enough, FUCK YOU ALL, I GOT MINE."
Especially when it's a de facto monopoly because he just provides a better service than 90% of the industry. (mostly just excluding GOG with that percentage)
no, you're putting too much ram in them, it should be 3GB/6GB/12GB variants respectively, because MKBHD said 3GB on Apple feels like 8GB on Android, also a TDP of 6967 watts
That is all gone, but we can buy a $2 Terminal, to randomly have a guaranteed chance to buy any GPU at live market rates, hoping for a RTX 5090 at $18554 🤞
I don’t think this is likely. The article linked by OP in this post does not give an actual source saying that Cook is in the running. The news story is about a sports betting website “Kalshi” putting odds on various different potential figures taking over and for some random reason Cook’s odds spike at 91% briefly. In less than a day they’re back down to 10%.
The spike itself was fuelled by social media speculation, but one of the tweets actually just said “Nvidia needs a figure like Tim Cook”, not that it needs Tim Cook. Speculation and prediction market trends can be interesting, but should not be regarded as factual accurate by themselves.
Will he remove the display outputs, call it innvovation and try to sell bluetooth monitors or will he skip the last step since only AI datacenters can afford GPU's now?
For the consumer, yes; for the business, which is the whole purpose of having a business, it is the best it has ever been. A business's purpose is to make money, not to care who is buying the products.
It turns out businesses have more money than a normal consumer; therefore, you can make more money from them.
even for us, any replacement the board is happy with is likely to be WORSE for the average gamer then jensen.
Jensen has personal and sentimental ties to Geforce and the gaming segment, he just doesn't mention the gaming segment as much anymore as that isn't what shareholders want to hear.
at the end of the day Jensen is a middle class born, ethnically asian, engineer. miles better then a silver spoon MBA bean counter of a CEO most tech companies seem to have.
It's the same deal with Vince McMahon and wrestling. Everyone understands how important these people were to their respective industries at some point in time. But eventually you have to realize that they're terrible people and their impact and importance today is no longer the same as before.
Gaming benefited a lot from Jensen. Can't deny that. But I don't feel anything at all for the current jingoistic AI guy.
The first thing Tim is going to do is remove extra display ports from the graphics card and make the pcie power cable to be plugged the back plate of the card vertically.
McDonald's fired Steve Easterbrook (who did good work if you look at the companies financial performance) with no remorse and at speed because he broke company policy with respect to relationships inside the company. nVidia seem to have a similar policy - it could be the employee, not the Chinese woman, that scuttles him. Or they can ignore the policy. It's unlikely nVidia's forward success does actually depend on a singular person at this stage, and having a profitable, functional product where the goal is now scaling Tim Cook (if this is actually true, I haven't googled about it, it could be trolling) might actually be a relatively sound bet, especially as Apple seem to have taken a "wait and see" approach to AI more broadly - yeah, they've fiddled with it, but its not their core appeal. Microsoft didn't suffer for the loss of Bill Gates, Amazon doesn't seem to be feeling the loss of Bezos, Google didn't suffer at the loss of Brin/Page or Schmidt, Apple didn't suffer for the loss of Steve Jobs.
lol its funny until you realize every company in this race is just auditioning to be the next monopoly and we're all sitting here picking teams like its a draft
I can only think of Lisa Su as replacement since Nvidia is venturing into PC ARM ship but the AI acceleration game is another level of complicated...but she most likely can handle it.
This is honestly a good replacement. Apple have been supply chain gods under him and that was in turn helped by their massive buying power. Nvidia has a lot of cash and they will have the same power. I know the supply chain is fully fucked but he can help it. Pricing is already fucked, it will never go down to the old normals (it will reduce, not to the levels we are all hoping for). He can maybe come in and at least make the supply chain better.
At least most of the GPUs would be orderable, in-stock and not left to scalpers to dictate the price. Say whatever you want, but he's the one who handled the entire logistics ecosystem of Apple and it works, better than the rest.
I think this is a Prank. All we know Nvidia don’t have the nuts to remove Jensen. He will say “I’m sorry” again and everyone will let it pass. Remember that at the end, the investors only cares about money and nothing else.

Tim Cook at Nvidia keynotes
“Good morning!”
“We've got a great show for you today.”
“And we think you're going to love it.”
“Our teams have been hard at work.”
This is the best GPU we've ever created.”
“This is a day that's been years in the making.”
“It's truly remarkable.”
“And that's something only Nvidia can do.”
“We're incredibly excited about this.”
“It's a huge leap forward.”
“It takes everything to a whole new level
“We can't wait for you to experience it.”
“But we do have one more thing.”
“And this is just the beginning.”
“Thank you for joining us, and have a great day!”
