The real scandal isn’t that Nvidia’s CEO became a liability. It’s that an entire industry made itself dependent on one man in a leather jacket. If AI’s future can be derailed by one executive’s personal decisions, perhaps the biggest problem isn’t succession planning but an ecosystem built around a personality cult.
It’s not even an ecosystem, it’s just a cult, plain and simple. The whole thing is a cult. The machine god is either going to save humanity or destroy humanity and we must give it what it wants to achieve salvation. Kneel in supplication before your machine god and pledge unto it your energy, your land, your laws, your chip factories, and most importantly, your MONEY, because for some reason all gods, machine or otherwise, always need money. So unthinkably much money.
A lot of that profit is not real though. Various forms of nvidia giving investment to startup, and they then buy chips from nvidia. Or nvidia taking a stake ofade up value for chips.
They are still doing well, but not as well as the pure numbers would have you think. When the bubble bursts all those startups with no income and no business plan will fold.

I’d prefer that it just needed one dick to bring down the whole AI bubble.
But tbh I don’t don’t think that we are seeing the bubble popping yet, as this is just a sideshow and Nvidia is one of the few that is profitable.
I think it will take OpenAI or Anthropics IPO to bring the whole system down.
One of the very, very, few. In many ways, the only.
