Elon Musk Says It Would Be an 'Honor' to Hire Nvidia's Jensen Huang
Musk’s comment follows reports that Nvidia directors are weighing whether to remove Huang after allegations of extramarital relationships and foreign intelligence concerns.
- On Thursday, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said he would be open to hiring Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, writing "That would be an honor" Wednesday evening in response to board removal reports.
- Following revelations of two extramarital relationships, Nvidia's board is reportedly preparing to remove Huang, with one relationship involving a woman intelligence officials suspect of spying for China, per The Wall Street Journal.
- Several lawmakers are calling for the Nvidia CEO to resign, with Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-N, telling CNBC, "As a matter of his own conscience, he should resign," joining other congressional critics.
- Nvidia shares fell more than 8% in after-hours trading following the reports, though Huang sought to project a "business as usual" atmosphere on his first day back at the office.
- Musk's interest recalls a 2010 precedent where Oracle cofounder Larry Ellison hired former Hewlett-Packard CEO Mark Hurd after Hurd faced an ouster over expense-reporting issues, later naming him co-president.
