Behind Jensen Huang's Resignation: A $40 Million Donation from Anthropic

35 minutes ago

Beating AI News: Anthropic donated $40 million to U.S. AI policy group Public First Action this year. Months later, two U.S. congressmembers the group planned to promote co-signed a letter demanding an investigation into Jensen Huang. Anthropic contributed $20 million each in February and July to support stricter AI safety regulations and chip export controls. On July 17, Public First Action announced it would allocate $15 million to promote Republican lawmakers backing strict AI regulation, and survey conservative voters’ attitudes toward related policies. The two lawmakers slated to receive the ad campaign are Brian Mast and John Moolenaar. On November 4, the two, alongside House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rick Crawford, co-sent a letter to Jensen Huang demanding he attend a closed-door congressional hearing. On November 12, Jensen Huang resigned. The three lawmakers sent another letter the same day, demanding Nvidia and the U.S. Department of Commerce provide explanations, and urging Congress to pass stricter chip export control legislation as soon as possible. Anthropic has long advocated restricting China’s access to advanced AI chips, while Jensen Huang has consistently opposed tighter export controls and repeatedly lobbied the U.S. government to relax restrictions on chip sales to China.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed responsibility for striking a U.S. military early-warning radar in Bahrain, in retaliation for the airstrike targeting the Sirik communications tower.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) released a statement via state media on Friday, claiming it had struck a U.S. early-warning radar site in Bahrain in retaliation for an earlier airstrike on a communications tower in Sirik County, Hormozgan Province, southern Iran. This marks the first time Iran has publicly claimed an attack on a U.S. military facility in a Gulf state since early September. To date, Iran has not disclosed the radar's specific location, damage status, or any casualties, and the attack's outcome cannot be independently verified. The U.S. and Bahrain have not yet responded. The incident comes as shipping security risks around the Strait of Hormuz continue to rise. Earlier, the IRGC said two large oil tankers exploded and lost navigability on Wednesday night after ignoring route warnings. Additionally, Iran has been accused of attacking a ship navigation facility on Oman's Dammar Island. As U.S.-Iran military tensions escalate again, security risks for the Strait of Hormuz, a globally critical energy transport route, have further increased.

Nvidia employees have launched a petition calling for Jensen Huang to return to the CEO position.

Beating AI Flash News: Shortly after Jensen Huang resigned, NVIDIA employees internally called on the company’s board of directors to reinstate him as CEO. A senior engineer previously posted on the company’s internal suggestion box, demanding the board release the investigation results and solicit employee input before deciding Huang’s future. Since Huang’s resignation, the post has garnered over 1,600 comments, most of which support his return. One comment read: “If you align with the company’s mission, bring the boss back.” Another employee said: “Everyone makes mistakes. Jensen Huang has done so much for the company and deserves a second chance.” Some employees even sent company-wide emails publicly backing Huang and demanding the board explain the reasons for his departure. Many employees had expected the board to wait until the conclusion of an independent investigation before deciding Huang’s fate, but Huang resigned shortly after the investigation launched. Employee support for Huang did not emerge only after his resignation. Workplace community Blind surveyed 232 NVIDIA employees between November 9 and 10: 88% of respondents supported Huang remaining as CEO, 11% wanted him to step down voluntarily, and only 1% backed the board removing him from the post. Within hours of Huang’s departure, more than 20 NVIDIA employees publicly voiced support for him on LinkedIn. No employee posts publicly backing his resignation were found during the same period. To date, NVIDIA’s board has appointed CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO and launched a formal successor selection process. The company and new chairman Harvey Jones have not yet responded to employee calls for Huang’s return.
