The US Treasury Secretary said today that the board needs to select an external hire for CEO, as the entire company faces scrutiny for violating export control laws.

That makes it seem extremely unlikely that Jensen can return.

He is also staying as CEO of htmx

This isn't OpenAI in 2023. Nvidia is a public company facing serious regulatory questions. Powerful Silicon Valley friends likely can't make those go away.

If the board reverses its decision so quickly because of pressure from Silicon Valley executives, it'll raise serious questions about the board's competence and independence.

Personally I'd be happy if Jensen Huang comes and things go normal for him and he doesn't face more challenges.

Ugh, he's obviously sleeping his way to the top.

The Altman shuffle?

It would be the worst of all signs if Huang returns to Nvidia. Apparently, having an affair with a subordinate and a customer would just be an "ooopsie - anyways, let’s get back to business!". Looks like Silicon Valley is scared to lose their rockstar. As a gamer, I really do not want him to come back to Nvidia. He's done nothing good for consumers in the past few years.

The farce continues to write itself.

Maybe he was just dissolving government and calling an snap election. It isn't like they fired him, he quit.
