Nvidia's boss has resigned.
Right.
On November 12, the company said so.
Mm.
Jensen Huang resigned, and left that same day.
Left that same day?
Right.
His jobs at the company, he isn't doing any of them anymore.
Why?
The company only said he resigned.
And the reports?
It is reported that a few days before he resigned, some news about his private life led to a lot of different opinions.
Mm.
Now the question is who will run the company.
Right, who will run it?
The person in charge of the money at the company.
The person in charge of the money.
Right.
She has been in charge of the money at Nvidia since 2013, more than ten years now.
Now she's the boss.
The interim boss.
Interim means doing it for a while first.
Right, she does it for now.
Then what about a new boss?
The company is looking.
Inside the company, outside the company, it's looking in both.
Mm.
Who will handle the money?
Still her.
Oh.
For this interim period, handling the money and running the company, two jobs, she does them alone.
One person, one person doing two jobs.
Yes.
How long was Jensen Huang the boss?
He started the company in 1993.
Mm.
33 years, and he was the only boss.
33 years.
Right.
People who work at Nvidia, however many years they've been there, have never had a different boss.
The first time.
Mm.
Nvidia makes chips, right?
Right.
Most AI today uses its chips.
Does it make the chips itself?
It designs the chips, and TSMC makes them.
Oh, it designs them, TSMC makes them.
Right.
It is one of the most valuable companies in the world.
Such a big company, and the boss is gone...
The company is still there, and so is the business.
Mm.
But others make chips too, AMD for example.
Mm.
And Google and Amazon are also making their own AI chips.
Then she has a lot to manage.
Right.
Handling the money, running the company, and also keeping an eye on the AI chips others make.
I think finding a new boss is the hardest part.
I'm not so sure.
I think the hard part is now, the time before the new boss comes.
True.
There's only her.
Right.
Will the new boss be someone from inside?
Inside, outside, the company is looking at both.
Mm.
Until then, Nvidia's interim boss is that person in charge of the money.
