NVIDIA's Interim CEO Cole Cress (Photo=NVIDIA) With the resignation of CEO Jensen Huang, NVIDIA faced a leadership vacuum and has now implemented a new management system. Cole Cress, who has been in charge of the company's finance and business strategy for 13 years, has been appointed as interim CEO, and Harvey Jones, who has been a member of the board since the company's early days, has been appointed as the first chairman. Both have begun efforts to stab

With $720M round, Britain’s Fractile gets a leg up in the race for AI chips
Alongside the likes of Axelera, Etched, and OLIX, this makes Fractile one of the top-funded startup players in the race for purpose-built AI chips. Such chips are one of several avenues being explored to reduce the cost of inference — aka using increasingly demanding AI models in production. However, Fractile seeks to go beyond hardware with a full-stack approach that also includes a machine learning compiler to maximize the speed at which LLMs will get ex

Who could replace Jensen Huang? A highly unscientific list of possible successors
Even if Huang is pushed out as CEO, the board members he has made very rich are unlikely to cut him loose entirely. Barring another shoe dropping, they could keep him on as chairman, a role Nvidia doesn’t currently have. But someone still has to run the company, and there’s no apparent succession plan, which leaves us, like everyone else, to speculate while we wait to see what happens next. While Huang’s 60 direct reports undoubtedly get a closer look, con

Jensen Huang is out at Nvidia — who is Colette Kress, his interim replacement?
This is a shocking twist for one of the most valuable companies in the world, which designs the chips that make the AI boom possible. Few people would have predicted this turn of events even just a week ago, as Huang has been so central to Nvidia throughout the company’s existence that he never even established a succession plan. But Huang has now been ousted after reports that he had affairs with both an alleged Chinese spy and one of his direct reports a

Five ways Jensen Huang’s ouster from Nvidia could damage the AI industry

In this case, one of his lovers is suspected by the U.S. government of being a spy for China. She’s also an executive of a Singapore-based neocloud that is suspected of smuggling Nvidia chips to China. These affairs show undeniably poor judgment by Huang and, I’d argue, unchecked hubris on many levels. Such choices are not only a betrayal of his wife of 40 years, they’re also a liability for his company. Sleeping with any Nvidia partner is bad enough, but

The unfolding Jensen Huang scandal: a timeline
By early Thursday morning, Huang was no longer CEO of the company he co-founded 33 years ago. Then, Thursday afternoon, Reuters dropped another bombshell, publishing a report alleging that Huang had yet another extramarital affair with another unnamed Nvidia employee. The U.S. and China are embroiled in a fierce technological arms race to build the most advanced AI infrastructure, which could shape each country’s economic future, military prowess, and capa

Democrats launch Nvidia investigation, write scathing letter on Huang’s ‘scheme’ with Trump
Huang was removed from the company he founded after he confessed to an extramarital affair with a woman accused of being a Chinese spy. (He has since been accused of having more affairs, with Nvidia employees.) The alleged Chinese spy, Alice Huang, was an executive of Nvidia customer Megaspeed, a Singapore-based company that U.S. officials suspect of helping route advanced Nvidia chips into China. The Democratic inquiry comes from Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass
