⚠️ Unverified viral claim: Nvidia engineers threaten to join SpaceX if Jensen doesn’t return?

A post going viral on X claims that Nvidia’s core engineers are saying: “If the board doesn’t bring Jensen back, we’ll go straight to SpaceX and Terafab”—and that Elon Musk has already saved them spots.

⚠️ Important note: There’s no evidence confirming that this letter is real. Its content is almost a word-for-word copy of the letter OpenAI employees sent to the board in November 2023 after Sam Altman was fired—with only the company names, people, and destination changed. The letter says the board “fired” Jensen, while Nvidia’s official announcement said Jensen resigned. The original post was also given a Community Note because no reports have confirmed the letter’s existence.

What is real is the wave of internal opposition: according to WIRED, a senior engineer posted in an internal feedback forum calling on the board to listen to employees before making a decision, attracting more than 1,600 comments in support of Jensen’s return. The “Stand with Jensen” campaign has also gathered more than 68,000 signatures.

$NVDA Friday’s session closed at $162.85, down 2.01%—and the stock has lost about 33% from its October peak.

What do you think—is this a genuine leaked letter, or just a “remake” of the 2023 OpenAI story?
