Ming Chi Kuo: Huang is irreplaceable to Nvidia; Rubin mass production slips to 2027 on HBM4
zephyr_z9 · x · 2026-11-12
Ming Chi Kuo explains why Jensen Huang matters to Nvidia: he commits the whole company to aggressive spec upgrades engineers believe are possible, giving the supply chain strong order visibility and forcing competitors to follow — driving upgrades across the AI industry. Deciding on and delivering aggressive specs, he argues, is the harder and less replaceable part. The reposter adds that without Huang Nvidia's 12-month cadence may not survive, and Rubin mass production has already slipped to 2027 due to HBM4 (blaming SK Hynix).
