kimmonismus · x · 2026-11-15
According to the Washington Post, Jensen Huang is helping Nvidia search for his own successor and has already called at least one potential candidate. Though he has kept a low profile since abruptly resigning Thursday, a person familiar with the process says he is participating.
The Financial Times previously reported that Nvidia's board has approached Arm CEO Rene Haas. Huang said in a January interview that "there will never be one like me... because I was raised at the company," leaving Nvidia with the unenviable task of replacing a CEO who long cast himself as irreplaceable.
