It is at least entertaining when certain CEOs speak off-the-cuff and reveal they have no clue what they are talking about. Jensen thinks DLSS 5 works at "the geometry level", for instance. Oh and he pays engineers $500,000 to spend $250,000 on Claude tokens.

So, is your position that Jensen Huang, CEO of NVDA, is an idiot?
Do you think you're smart? Have you ever done something and said "man, I'm an idiot"? It's just like that.
Of course, the other explanation is that he's just grifting, which is also very possible.

#45Earlier quoted context omitted.
It doesn't reveal that they have no clue of what they're talking about. They know that a good number of idiot CEOs will hear this and dictate their engineers spend more claude/codex money, which benefits them. Jensen isn't an idiot, he's capitalizing on the market.
He might be, but this sounds suspiciously like "Trump is playing 4D chess and trolling the media - he would never actually do the dumb thing he just suggested he was about to do."

#46If you are half wrong with your first examples, maybe you should focus on yourself first?
I get the point you are trying to make, but you can't do that spreading misinformation. Jesus.

#47The thing this article does not cover is that the average journalist has no sway. Most readers don't want the opinion of some random person covering a space, so "CEO Said a Thing" is the headline that draws the reader in. Many times the journalist also is not getting paid enough to inject any sort of counterpoint or unique perspective. This just seems like the natural outcome of the click-whoring online "news" struct…
If a journalist is not being paid enough to do journalism, what do we call their output? Certainly not journalism.
