Elon Musk says hiring Nvidia $NVDA CEO Jensen Huang would be an honor
Elon Musk has publicly expressed interest in hiring Nvidia $NVDA CEO Jensen Huang, even as Huang remains at the helm of the chipmaker.
Responding to an X post that simply said "Elon please hire Jensen," Musk replied, "That would be an honor."
The exchange comes amid reports that Nvidia's board is considering Huang's future following revelations about his personal relationships and an ongoing investigation involving potential Chinese intelligence links.
Huang has not announced plans to resign, and Nvidia has not confirmed any decision to replace its longtime CEO.
Musk's companies are major customers of Nvidia's AI chips, making the relationship between the two executives particularly important as Tesla $TSLA, xAI and SpaceX expand their computing infrastructure.
There is no indication that Musk has made a formal job offer or discussed a potential position with Huang.
Still, the public response has attracted attention at a time when Nvidia's leadership uncertainty is becoming another concern for investors already navigating volatility in AI stocks.
