'Some things are eternal': Elon Musk paid tribute to Jensen Huang with a clip from a movie about Michael Jordan
Elon Musk reposted clip from "Air," in which Nike exec Sonny Vaccaro, played by Matt Damon, delivers a monologue about success and failure.
Elon Musk paid tribute to Jensen Huang by sharing a clip from the 2023 movie Air, which was first posted by venture fund Andreessen Horowitz. The clip showed Nike executive Sonny Vaccaro, played by Matt Damon, warning Michael Jordan about the fleeting nature of success and the inevitability of failure. Musk reposted the two-minute clip on X, adding the word "Jensen" to emphasize his tribute to Huang.
When Nvidia's board first considered ousting Huang, Musk had expressed his desire to hire him, stating that it would be an honor. Huang resigned from Nvidia on Thursday after multiple allegations of extramarital affairs surfaced. The company's share price dropped 4% on the day of his resignation, following a week of declining values.
After founding Nvidia in 1993, Huang became a prominent figure in the AI industry as demand for his company's chips grew.
