yeah, I think he is way more than that, CUDA exista because he refused to concede to shareholders pressure, the whole GPU release cadence compressed to 6 months with Jepsen and the whole stack of datacenter technology to connect those GPUs didn't happen by mistake either

Jepsen survived in an industry of failures, he is an incredibly talented CEO
