Katie Tarasov (CNBC): You are longest running tech CEO, is there any end in sight?
Jensen Huang (NVIDIA): Well, as you can tell im sprity and quite enthusiastic and energetic yet. I’m surrounded by amazing people, who keep me inspired and I feel we can do great tings together and they give me so much confidence in what we can do and the impact we can make. I think I’m making a real contribution to the company to make an environment where we can make really amazing contributions. So, I think for as long as I believe I can do that, I don’t know exactly for how long that’s gonna be, but 3 to 4 decades I’d say. Another 4 decades I’d be robotic and maybe another 3 to 4 decades after that. Hopefully, I get to enjoy this for a very long time.
