What happened
The Wall Street Journal, citing an anonymous source, reported that former NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang described Collette Kress, now the company’s interim CEO, as “a deer in the headlights” during a presentation earlier in the summer. The report said Huang also questioned whether Kress could help steer strategy or decision-making. Kress had raised questions about Nvidia’s credit-based deals and scaled back its commitment to OpenAI’s Ohio data center project; the company ultimately committed $105 billion after talks about providing $250 billion in credit.
