Nvidia has a huge stake in OpenAI, both in terms of them being one of Nvidia's biggest customers and also via direct investment. After HuggingFace was hacked and they expressed the position that they were the forgiving sort, for a price, there was a distinct possibility that HuggingFace would become a vocal shakedown artist that would start protesting at inconvenient times until silenced by more money, especially if they get hacked again. By complete coincidence, Nvidia took the one move that silences HuggingFace for good.

Nvidia isn't going to sue OpenAI. No chance.

Who will though? At this point it seems like a huge chunk of US economy growth can be attributed to AI. Bubble or not, I guess very few would benefit from bursting it?

Jensen is wish-casting as hard as anyone has ever casted a wish. That EK show interview made me throw my phone.

Is it the one in which he said ‘it’s just software’ over and over? Felt like the guy was coming from a parallel universe

a fine hope if unlikely. but I wanted to also note in friendly fashion that the word you want is precedent (or precedents) - precedence has a connotation of "first among" rather than precedent's "came before."

I think a good bunch of Jensen's revenues are coming from OpenAI so that's not happening.

It's all for show. The police won't / can't prosecute, because they'd need to prove that a crime was committed... and all we have are salespeople saying how great their product is. I'm not saying AIs can't be used for crime, but... if none of the parties involved are really complaining, then there probably wasn't any real crime... just a performance.
