黄仁勋 Criticized 科莱特·克雷斯 During Meeting on AI Financing Guarantees

An informed person familiar with a summer meeting said 英伟达 founder 黄仁勋 interrupted then-CFO 科莱特·克雷斯 as core finance executives discussed risks from financing guarantees worth billions of dollars for AI companies.

The person said 黄仁勋 questioned whether 科莱特·克雷斯 could help with strategy and key decisions, likening her to a deer startled by headlights and describing her as a CFO focused on bookkeeping.

The guarantees supported cash-strapped AI companies, including emerging cloud providers and data center developers. The arrangements were intended to secure long-term chip customers for 英伟达.
