How NVIDIA Dominated AI: Jensen Huang's Bold Bets | Stephen Witt

NVIDIA doesn’t just make chips; they are the oil of the modern world. And for thirty years, one man has been betting the company on a future that Wall Street couldn’t see. In this episode, I sit down with Stephen Witt, author of the FT Business Book of the Year, The Thinking Machine, to understand how Jensen Huang turned a gaming graphics company into the most powerful force in AI. We talk about the “cult-like” culture at NVIDIA, why Huang ignored investors to build CUDA for nearly a decade before it paid off, and how he’s running the same playbook today with robotics and quantum computing. Stephen explains why most investors are looking at the wrong metrics and why comparing AI to the metaverse or crypto is a dangerous mistake.
