Goodbye, Jensen Huang. The 33-year era of Nvidia has come to an end. In 1993, at the age of 30, he and two friends decided to make 3D graphics chips in a Danny's restaurant in San Jose. 33 years later, he led the company to a $5 trillion valuation, making it the world's largest graphics chip manufacturer. He nearly failed several times along the way: In 1996, the company was only 30 days away from bankruptcy, laying off half its employees and betting its last penny on the RIVA 128. In 2006, he bet on CUDA, burning through money for ten years without anyone understanding its potential, but it later became the cornerstone of the Nvidia ecosystem. In 2022, the demand for mining disappeared, graphics card inventory piled up in warehouses, the $40 billion acquisition of Arm fell through, and the stock price plummeted by 66%. Then, ChatGPT arrived. CUDA, which no one understood for a decade, became the foundation of AI worldwide overnight, and Nvidia's GPUs were in high demand and sold out. From its IPO to today, Nvidia's stock has increased 4,051 times. 33 years—a tribute to that man in the leather jacket.
