GPU’s are a family business it would seem.

Su’s mother and Nvidia co-founder and former CEO Jensen Huang are first cousins. Su’s maternal grandfather is the eldest brother of Huang’s mother.

    Not problematic at all /s. Gotta wonder who’s the patriarch of the family and what did they do? Betting on weapons (likely with US backing).

      You don’t have to wonder, we have the internet lol

      His parents weren’t rich, he was an immigrant child who worked at Denny’s to afford college.

      Nvidia was a gaming hardware company. His billionaire arc is from being at the right place at the right time for the AI boom.

      His cousin was a little more well-off but also wasn’t coming from a crime family. She went to MIT.

        OK, thanks for delving into the shit that is the current internet, unlikely to be a source of actual truth these days unfortunately, but thanks. I find the coincidence of related CEOs in both major GPU manufacturers highly problematic and want a mechanism behind it. I assume something familial because of experience. Feel free to prove me wrong, provide references.

          Seems to happen too often on a planet of billions, that families or friend groups keep ending up controlling everything.

          Absolutely wild response to publicly available information that hasn’t changed in decades. The only reason you care now is because they lucked into having products that are good at something they weren’t intended to do.

          If you claim big things and disregard information people provide to you that goes against it, you are not opened to be proven wrong.

          Also, the burden of proof is on the one making the claim.
