His apology was so pat and by the numbers. You just know he had AI write it.

The actual explanation is “I am rich and famous and thought that should entitle me to whatever sex I want. And I thought I could get away with it.”

“I am rich and famous and thought that should entitle me to whatever sex I want. And I thought I could get away with it.”

Well then he used AI to successfully deflect away from the actual problem. No one cares who fucks who at nVidia, the problem is $2B in chips Megaspeed, his girlfriend's company, sold to China despite export restrictions. The fraud and export violations are the problem here, not little Huang.

Agreed and thats probably why his apology fell on the sword so completely: there’s no cost to admitting the moral failing and he is confident in the long run he will get away with it.

But material violations of commerce or espionage laws…. There’s zero about that in his apology and he will deny and fight like hell.

My only point here is to point out how trivial the human / moral / family dimension obviously is to him. Compete and total admission of guilt right away. Because he doesn’t give a fuck. Only thing that actually moves him is his job and company.
