President Donald Trump has publicly proposed Apple's Tim Cook as the next chief executive of Nvidia, following the resignation of Jensen Huang. In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote that Huang had done a "fantastic job" but that "there is only one man to take his place" — naming Cook of Apple.
According to the 9to5mac report, Huang is out as Nvidia's CEO after reported love affairs with an alleged Chinese spy and a high-ranking executive at the company. Trump described the scenario as "a Legend replaces a Legend" in his post.S2
The suggestion is unlikely to materialise in practice. Cook is serving as executive chairman of Apple's board after stepping down as CEO, a role that includes engaging with world leaders such as Trump. The report contrasts Apple's transition with Nvidia's leadership change, which it links to Huang's reported infidelity.S2
