> I do feel for Jensen

Why? He caused this. He chose to have affairs with a spy and a subordinate. Now he has to deal with the consequences.

It’s possible to have empathy for sinners. We’re all human.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by bdelmas on Thursday November 12, 2026 @11:00AM (#50469550)
I agree. I think the biggest issue is to not have empathy for sinners and you think you are a saint…
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by asadotzler on Thursday November 12, 2026 @11:20AM (#50469857)
spending your empathy on billionaires rather than people being screwed over by billionaires is a choice.

It's like if, after a shooting, you were worried about the shooter having to go to jail instead of wondering about the people shot.

Indeed, except, not at all like that

I'm not religious. I do agree though.

But you shouldn't have empathy because you like him or anything.

You should have empathy when he proves he's changed. You can make mistakes, we all do. You don't deserve empathy.

He sells GPUs, he's not a rockstar.

It remains possible to feel sympathy for people who have done wrong. He's one of the richest men on the planet, he's acted with hubris and ignominy, he's betrayed his loved ones, and he's also probably feeling pretty terrible right now.

Good. Let him feel pretty terrible. He's rich, he did nothing but be a parasite in the corporate playground.

He had an affair and as having my father do the same on my mother; you get no sympathy on cheating. When would he give it to you, because I can tell you he would never give it to you.

Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by onidj on Thursday November 12, 2026 @01:29PM (#50471893)
Sympathy isn't absolution. I hope he's okay in the same way I hope everyone is okay.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by doublerabbit on Thursday November 12, 2026 @03:44PM (#50474000)
I repaired my mistakes. I return.

Nah, he gets to suffer.

Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by LetsGetTechnicl on Thursday November 12, 2026 @11:36AM (#50470092)
Why would I have sympathy for him? Sounds like he got what he deserved
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by alt227 on Thursday November 12, 2026 @01:20PM (#50471724)
Because its the human thing to do.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by LetsGetTechnicl on Thursday November 12, 2026 @02:38PM (#50473010)
The human thing to also do is not pushing AI everywhere for the benefit of themselves and their stakeholders, to the detriment of literally the rest of humanity
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by tylerjharden on Thursday November 12, 2026 @02:04PM (#50472481)
Have you never been in a situation where you made mistakes, felt guilty, and appreciated the empathy and sympathy from fellow humans in light of all the shame and vitriol you received counter-wise?
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by LetsGetTechnicl on Thursday November 12, 2026 @02:37PM (#50472995)
Yeah but I'm not also a multi-billionaire who ran a company that is going to crash our economy
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by spike021 on Thursday November 12, 2026 @11:43AM (#50470205)
probably feeling pretty terrible that he finally got caught?

based on the reporting about the second affair, it's possible his security has had to shut down similar witnesses in the past.

Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by sparklingmango on Thursday November 12, 2026 @11:24AM (#50469919)
Yeah. I don't feel bad for a billionaire who operates in an extremely unethical fashion.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by subarctic on Thursday November 12, 2026 @11:55AM (#50470390)
You mean he knew she was a spy?
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by claaams on Thursday November 12, 2026 @12:33PM (#50470988)
Let's not forget him most likely knowingly breaking US export laws. Some might even call that treason.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by lvl256 on Thursday November 12, 2026 @01:22PM (#50471768)
This is his identity. Sure, he’s made some poor choices. Imagine Jobs resigning at the height of iPhone phenomenon or Gates at the very peak of Windows. Not sure if Jensen can bounce back from this psychologically. He’ll be broken for awhile.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by laurels-marts on Thursday November 12, 2026 @01:29PM (#50471892)
I think a lot of people might also disagree with the consequences. Something along the lines of - if it’s all consensual then why does it matter. Disclosing trade secrets (wittingly or otherwise) or skirting export ban is a separate matter that does have real legal consequences if proven true.
Re:NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition by rsoto2 on Thursday November 12, 2026 @03:37PM (#50473876)
"with a spy" where is the proof that she is a spy? It seems to be perfectly ok for CEOs to profess blind allegiance to a terrorist state, like Larry Ellison does, seems like a double standard.
