Time will tell if this is the best for the company... I hope he was a very hands-off CEO and mostly did marketing gigs.

My understanding is that he was a very consolidated-power CEO. No real second in command / replacement-in-training.

But that doesn't preclude there being a lot of competent talent on the second rung. (I think 60 people reported directly to him.)

He's famously incredibly hand-ons. I think he has something like 60 executive direct reports.

Hard to imagine that could have been the case given that he was Nvidia's CEO from the very beginning.
