The CEO of the huge GPU chip maker urges a more positive assessment of the impact of the new technology on workers and thinks it's imperative that CIOs start experimenting with AI.

Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, gave a much-anticipated keynote address at Gartner's IT Symposium/XPO on a variety of leadership subjects while sporting his signature black leather jacket.

Nvidia has achieved great success with their graphics processing units (GPUs). Although the high-performance units were first thought of mainly as processors to handle graphics-intensive jobs, such as video games, it was found that they were useful tools for large language models (LLMs). An arms race to create GenAI platforms began two years ago when OpenAI's ChatGPT was released and immediately became well-liked. Due to this rivalry, Nvidia GenAI has risen to the top of the list of the world's most valuable companies.

Therefore, CIOs were eager to hear about Huang's experiences attaining similar results. Hundreds of people queued up more than an hour before the doors to Huang's keynote opened.

Huang took part in an interview with Gartner analyst and vice president Daryl Plummer.

Plummer said that Nvidia leadership had presented them with another path that involved massive generative AI, data centers, and graphics processors prior to Huang taking the stage. AI, the game, and the present game-changing phenomenon were all touched by their provision of computer capacity.

Huang said his leadership is more about looking to the future than it is about fashion when Plummer questioned him about his personal style, which includes the same all-black ensembles he usually wears in public, and whether this simplicity enables his vision for leadership.
