that's main driver behind the biggest technological innovation of humankind requires you to be quite smart, don't you think?
wtf
>terms of engineering and development, that makes you think he's smart?
yes, because only engineering and development requires smartness! Do you really think it is true? wtf
>Idk I always find difficult to believe that people really think that CEOs are smart, when they commonly are not involved what so ever in any scientific leading or research, and just funnel money to a product that make them richer.
If you really believe that picking what to invest is easy, then go ahead to the stock market - you should outperform it easily then.
what the fuck is this take :D
You could have been way less toxic in you comment any way. That was a very unnecessary tone.
Since you're not OP, I still don't understand how that's a smart person to look up to.
Everything you said is someone that had contacts and new how to put money in certain places. Smart of me is absolutely engineering and science. There is no product for him to sell it, if there is no research and each of those research are way smarter, in my opinion, than CEO.
But the world is a funny place, research also doesn't existe without funding so we need more Huangs, I guess?
NVidia was at the right place at the right time, nothing else.
P.S. As a linux user I ascribe to the "FU nvidia" Linus' school of thought (because drivers) and I am happily running a Framework desktop instead of an nvidia rig. But credit where credit's due.
Jensen has absolutely made his own luck here. They were in the right place waiting for the right time for decades before it hit.
To an extremely ignorant person on the matter like me, and genuinely asking, what has he achieved in terms of engineering and development, that makes you think he's smart? Or do you mean in the sense of knowing its way through business and politics? Idk I always find difficult to believe that people really think that CEOs are smart, when they commonly are not involved what so ever in any scientific leading or research, and just funnel money to a product that make them richer.
But I prefer to believe I'm wrong and would like to hear form the other side.
