Is Jensen Huang Too Big to Fire?
Notes de l’épisode
This week Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis dig into Nvidia’s board investigating Jensen Huang after he admitted an affair with a woman US officials suspect was gathering intelligence for China, and why Jeff thinks Huang is too big to fire. Jason also shares what two weeks of early access to Google’s Gemini 4 Carbon did for his business, from a full website redesign to an agent swarm that audited his rental property books.
