[monty @montynomnom]

there's only oooooone Jensen Hu-ang

[etn. @etnshow]

During NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's visit to the UK he took a French reporters notebook and signed it with a gold pen and when presented with an AI report he also signed that joking it was now much more valuable:

"He started teasing the French reporter for being French. He took the French reporter's notebook out of his hand and signed it with a gold pen..."He was looking at the reporter's questions—'these useless questions.'"

"Azeem, tried to give Jensen a signed copy of his AI report, saying, 'Jensen, this is for you.' Jensen took it, signed it with the gold pen, and gave it back, saying, 'It's so much more valuable now.'"

"He was high-fiving people. He was sipping his drink, saying that he was drunk now and someone had told him it was lemonade...the whole time he was taking questions from this assembled pack of journalists about every topic in the world: specific tech stuff, policy, geopolitics, about his meeting with the Prime Minister."

I met approximately 1e3 neolabs in London started by ex-DeepMind researchers. Quite bullish on the city.

@etnshow Your metric is entirely wrong.

Elon had 5 hours. I had 1 hour. That’s something I had no control over.

On a per hour basis I drank more than any guest in history.

I could never expect some Englishmen to give me (a humble Irishman) a fair chance anyway.
