NVIDIA VP of Applied Deep Learning Research Bryan Catanzaro publicly denied on X that he signed a circulating open letter demanding the reinstatement of former CEO Jensen Huang, calling the letter fabricated and stating his support for the NVIDIA board and interim CEO. He said he would not sign it even if it were real. The letter was quickly debunked because its text copied the template of the November 2023 OpenAI staff letter calling for Sam Altman's reinstatement, with only the company and names swapped, and its signature list included employees who had left or whose titles did not match. A petition called "Stand with Jensen" has meanwhile circulated online under the title "Thirty-three years deserve an answer," calling on the NVIDIA board to bring Huang back, and has gathered over 84,000 signatures.

英伟达 VP Catanzaro denies signing open letter calling for former CEO 黄仁勋's reinstatement, expresses support for board and interim CEO 克雷斯

IT Home, November 14 news: 英伟达 Vice President of Applied Deep Learning Research 布莱恩 Catanzaro (Bryan Catanzaro) publicly posted on social platform X to refute rumors, denying that he participated in signing the open letter circulating online that called for former CEO 黄仁勋's reinstatement, stating that the letter is forged, and clearly expressing support for the 英伟达 board and interim CEO 科莱特 · 克雷斯 (Colette Kress).

布莱恩 Catanzaro claimed that even if (the open letter) were real, he would not sign it.

IT Home notes that after 黄仁勋's departure, an open letter circulated online, in the names of multiple 英伟达 executives and employees including 布莱恩 Catanzaro, calling on the board to reinstate 黄仁勋.

It is reported that the open letter was quickly exposed not only because 布莱恩 Catanzaro came forward to refute it, but also because the letter's text directly copied the template of the November 2023 joint letter by OpenAI employees calling for 萨姆 · 奥尔特曼 (Sam Altman)'s reinstatement, only replacing the company and names with 英伟达, 黄仁勋, and 科莱特 · 克雷斯, and the signature list included the names of multiple employees who had already left or whose position information did not match.

However, a petition campaign called "Stand with Jensen" has spread across the internet, titled "Thirty-three years deserve an answer," calling on the 英伟达 board to bring 黄仁勋 back; the campaign has currently collected more than 84,000 signatures.
