Huang wants employees to pay half of their salary back to the company ? There is no escaping the company store, eh ?
CAD designers didn’t have to pay half of their salary to use the CAD tools the company wanted them to use.

I didn’t read it that way. I think he’s saying “bosses: if you’re paying a $100k salary to a dev and not also paying $50k for tokens, your dev isn’t working hard enough”.

Which is still utterly absurd, because it implies that a harder working dev would be spending more time chatting to a bot.

This is clearly a situation where you are expected to spend 100% of a budget to keep your job.

It seems that the Nvidia CEO isn’t the only one investing in AI tokens for his employees to freely use
AFAIK, Nvidia employees aren’t paying for the tokens they use out of their own pockets, although it’s certainly beneficial to Nvidia in multiple ways if their own employees are making heavy use of AI.
