Elon Musk-Nvidia CEO Exchange Praise
Elon Musk replied to DogeDesigner‘s X post in which Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang praised Musk and the Tesla Optimus humanoid robot. He said “Jensen rocks!,” sparking speculation in the AI coins and Dogecoin communities.
In a recent interview, Nvidia CEO mentions Elon Musk as “extraordinary engineer” and highlighted that they will continue to work together. He highlighted that the Optimus robot is right around the corner for high-volume production.
“It’s very likely that human robots are going to be robots that we can deploy into the world relatively easily & this is the first robot that really has a chance to achieve the high volume and technology scale necessary to advance technology and I think this is likely to be the next multi trillion dollar industry.”
In October, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang appeared on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” and said “he wants to be part of almost everything Elon Musk is involved in.” He discussed details of the company’s latest $2 billion investment in Elon Musk’s xAI as part of the $20 billion financial round.
Earlier, Huang remarked Elon Musk as “the most world-class builder we have in the country.” Positive interactions between Elon Musk and Nvidia CEO have historically sparked short-term pumps in Dogecoin and AI coins due to community hype around AI-crypto convergence.
