I think he clearly did something wrong. It just doesn't seem that bad in comparison to the current shit our leaders do weekly. We're in an age of morally corrupt leadership across the board in the United States.

We don't know anything about his cheating and it shouldn't matter.

We don't know his relationship with his wife, what their stands on cheating even stands.

You can argue its an image issue, but thats a problem of the press and marketing and not that he might have cheated.

His wife is an adult and is for sure not poor, so its not a situation were she has to stay with him.

I do believe it either has to do with the whole spy story or he did something he really shouldn't have.

I never mentioned cheating? Not sure why are you bringing it up.

I said that the missteps was having sex with subordinates and chinese spies.

Now start connecting the dots with Nvidia being one of the major advocates for relaxing exports to China and selling billions of GPUs to shady Singaporean companies that the chinese spy represented and you understand why the board finds him a liability.

reply
You mentioned, as the first big point:

"Having sex with your workers and chinese spies is obviously not the kind of behavior that reflects that."

Fair though you didn't say cheating, but it undermined (at least by reading it) the main argument you brought up later regarding chinese spies

reply
Even the "chinese spies" is just unsubstantiated 'she's chinese so she should be a spy". She's not even chinese iirc, isn't she singaporean? so it's like suspect by ethnicity.
reply
> so it's like suspect by ethnicity.

Suspect by payment from ... TenCent? AFAIK. Her company got money from Tencent and after every longer meeting with Jensen, someone from Tencent flew in and had a meeting with her. At least that is what I remember hearing.

reply
In Wikipedia no mention of TenCent at all. In another writeup it's mentioned, but nothing clear.

Was Alice's company supposed to be the only company getting Nvidia chips (which they deny doing anyway). Or one of many and Chinese companies did it with many different others?

If many, why is her relationship specifically important or special from that aspect?

Again, I can understand snooping for confidential early information from him. But "she got with him so that this single company gets chips"?

If, as a CEO, the location and interaction of your penis ever becomes well known, then you are failing as a CEO, outside of a few very specific cases.

>or committed fraud

We're just gonna keep shoving the illegal GPU trade with China under the rug I guess.

reply
Innocent unless proven guilty.

But yes, the fact that Nvidia advocated for relaxing exports to China and that he sold billions of GPUs to shady Singaporean companies is now obviously under major scrutiny.

reply
If it was some middle manager who got fired for screwing a subordinate you'd see the typical "don't shit where you eat" comments. My guess is people are upset because their stock is down 20% over the last month because of this drama.

I think both nvidia AND jensen will be doing quite fine 5 years from now.

reply
I agree. And to the conspiracy theorists: what is more likely? That an impossibly rich guy who thinks he is the center of the universe does something as entitled as this? Or that there is some shadowy coup going on that just checkmated him? Human nature doesn’t need that much encouragement.
