    Jensen Huang's ouster likely traces back to Nvidia's risky business practices more than his personal life

    A Wall Street Journal report says Jensen Huang was pushed out more over Nvidia's business practices than his personal affairs, citing a risky credit program that offered AI cloud providers and data center developers billions in financial guarantees to buy Nvidia chips, including talks with OpenAI over a $250 billion guarantee for an Ohio data center. After the deal became public and Nvidia shares fell 5%, interim CEO Colette Kress cut the OpenAI commitment in half, and Huang reportedly dismissed her as a "reporting CFO" who was "a deer in the headlights." The report also describes Huang pressuring cloud CEOs at Berlin's GTC conference with a story about a Japanese soup vendor, and CNN reporting that spy allegations involving Alice Huang rest on shaky ground.

    Anthropic says AI is eroding Nvidia's CUDA lead, cutting an AMD chip switch from months to three days

    Anthropic claims it ported its Claude model to AMD GPUs in about three days with almost no human intervention, using its own frontier model, Mythos, to write or port nearly 100 percent of the kernels, versus the six to twelve months traditional engineering approaches require. The company says it now trains and runs Claude across four chip families—AWS Trainium, Google TPUs, Nvidia GPUs and AMD GPUs—treated as one interchangeable compute pool, and it cites figures from an investor presentation that have not been independently verified. Anthropic also points to "compute multipliers" and its "Anthropic Direct" data center program, while Nvidia and AMD both hold financial ties to the company.

    Why it matters: It offers a concrete, if unverified, data point on whether AI-assisted porting can loosen CUDA's lock-in and shift how AI labs choose among chip vendors.
