    Everything about this whole thing is just too funny.

    Sure, this asshole has been cheating on his wife and fell into a honeypot scheme with some Chinese spy, but in a world where the POTUS is raping children and organizing private off-the-record meetings presumably to give the Russian president a blowjob it’s surprising that it’s even newsworthy.

    This would be the stupidest way for the AI bubble to finally burst, which I guess means that we should all have been able to predict it a long time ago. We are, after all, in the stupidest timeline.

      Someone wanted him replaced and his vices are used as pretext. If his love interests was really a spy I’d expect it be handled differently, less public.

        Yeah, I’ve seen some theories around that the Trump administration is behind all of it. I find it likely, if nothing else because it’s hard to think of something that idiotic and imagine Trump not doing it.

          It means Trump missed his first chance to buy shares when the price was low. Now there’s a dip in the market, buy low, continue to hype Super Intelligence, stonks go up, sell high.

    I always enjoy reading the comments on HN, like:

    I have to imagine that Jensen is under an enormous amount of stress right now

    For all his faults, I do feel for Jensen

    And Wikipedia saying: “Forbes estimates his net worth at over $150 billion.” Wow, so much stress, I would share some of that stress, it must be so difficult for him.

      Now that he’s no longer CEO I guess he will find out whether his hot Chinese girlfriend really loves him for him. That must be very stressful indeed.

      Something tells me it’s more likely that you’ve bought at $239 because line was supposed to go up forever.
