Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Depends on if there's anyone left in the US govt who'd be interested in upholding all that stuff about not exporting top tier AI server components to geopolitical rivals I'd guess.
Maybe they'll make an example of him to show what happens if you run competing grifts without cutting the presidential family in.
I think he's out on a thin limb.
If there's one thing people who espouse "reasonable pro-AI" views push, is that the US has to go ahead building chatbots because otherwise the Chinese will beat us.
In the current point in time, AI is under perceived attack by the Democrats (I doubt they'll go against the lobbyists but w/e) and the US Right has realized that no-one really likes Big Tech - they're convenient scapegoats for all sorts of things. Sure they want billionaires in charge but people like Sam Altman aren't really their kinds of people.
Throwing the book at Jensen would help both sides.
Would be amazing if Trump's swan song was to scapegoat the CEOs who have been showering him in golden busts and laughing at his jokes for the last 2-3 years.
The man has no concept of loyalty owed, only loyalty received.
Imo I can see both outcomes: Trump and Nvidia pulling strings and bending the rules to keep Huang in for the sake of the markets/protecting Trump’s precious ‘SI’ companies, and Trump getting pissed because of selling to China/GOP using him as a scapegoat and having him forcefully resign
