Beff Jezos floats Jensen Huang running TSMC and joining forces with Musk's Terafab
beffjezos · x · 2026-11-14
Beff Jezos quoted a thread speculating "What if Jensen becomes CEO of TSMC?" and argued that if Jensen ran TSMC while Elon built Terafab, the two behemoths could still join forces — the most accelerated outcome.
The quoted thread details Jensen Huang's 30-year bond with TSMC founder Morris Chang: in 1997, as NVIDIA neared bankruptcy, Huang cold-wrote to Chang, who called back and became NVIDIA's manufacturing partner; in 1998 TSMC even supplied production workers; Chang offered Huang the TSMC CEO role twice, and Huang declined.
