Jensen Huang has stepped down with immediate effect as chairman and CEO of American technology company Nvidia. He has also resigned from his seat on the board of directors. The company is now searching for a permanent successor to its co-founder and longtime chief. Index.hu ↗
Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress has been appointed to lead the company on an interim basis. The fifty-nine-year-old executive is set to run Nvidia during the period in which the company prepares to select a new CEO. novinky.cz ↗
Huang's departure is linked to a scandal involving alleged espionage and an extramarital affair. The case has raised questions about the concentration of power within one of the most important companies in the field of artificial intelligence and about the impact of personal scandals on its future operations. El Pais ↗
Nvidia is also facing pressure on the stock market. Following the decline, its market value, according to available reports, is lower than it was a year ago, even though the company's revenue and profit have risen significantly. Investors are therefore watching whether the change in leadership will disrupt the company's further growth and its position in the AI chip industry. Der Standard ↗
Huang's departure could also have broader geopolitical consequences. Experts warn that the scandal could complicate negotiations between China and the United States over artificial intelligence and accelerate Beijing's efforts toward greater independence for its domestic chip industry. Nvidia's future will depend largely on the choice of a permanent successor and the company's ability to restore investor confidence. Die Zeit ↗
