### **NVIDIA CEO Transition & Investigations**
* **Resignation:** Jensen Wong resigned as president, CEO, and board member of NVIDIA effective immediately.
* **Interim CEO:** Colette Kress (current EVP and CFO) is serving as interim CEO while a permanent successor (internal or external) is TBD. Q3 earnings are to be reported next Tuesday, the 17th.
* **Timeline of Events:**
* **Oct 29:** *The New York Times* reported U.S. officials concluded Alice Wong (exec at Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed) was a Chinese intelligence asset close to Jensen (Trump was briefed about a year ago and did not act). NVIDIA denied it was unusual. China's foreign ministry called it groundless speculation.
* **Approx. a week later:** *The Financial Times* reported the U.S. government believed Jensen had a romantic relationship with Alice.
* **Next day:** Jensen sent a company-wide email ("A Message to Our Company") apologizing for infidelity to his wife. He noted NVIDIA's board initiated an independent investigation, which he fully supports. The board stated they had no reason to believe national security or secrets were compromised, expressing confidence in Jensen continuing without interruption.
* **Next day:** Trump stated Jensen told him he had no idea Alice was a spy, and that he believes Jensen, noting the FBI is looking into it. A proposed securities class action was filed against NVIDIA and Jensen in federal court in San Jose over misleading statements regarding the relationship and Megaspeed.
* **Following day:** NVIDIA retained former acting U.S. attorney of the Southern District of New York and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen, and Katz for an independent investigation.
* **Following day:** House Republican and House committee on the CCP chair John Moulinard stated Jensen had until 5 p.m. to agree to a closed-door meeting or face likely subpoenas.
* **Following day:** *The New York Times* reported Jensen also had an extramarital relationship with Kimberly Powell (NVIDIA VP of healthcare, reporting directly to Jensen). *The Wall Street Journal* reported the board was preparing to force Jensen out.
* **Last night/Today:** The board accepted Jensen’s resignation. Jensen agreed to appear before lawmakers in a closed-door, likely under-oath, transcribed, video-recorded briefing before Thanksgiving (negotiations ongoing).
* **Today:** *The Times* reported Jensen hired law firm Paul Weiss (litigators Melinda Hogg and Walter Brown), confirmed by CNBC. Federal prosecutors in Manhattan are examining whether organizations tied to Alice Wong diverted Supermicro AI hardware to China.
* **John Moulinard's reaction:** Called Jensen's resignation an unfortunate, avoidable end; stated American companies must not jeopardize national security. Called for rapid bipartisan export control legislation in the year-end national defense bill.
* **Host's Opinion & Analysis:**
* Most information currently consists of unconfirmed allegations regarding national security. Jensen admitted to the affair with Alice Wong, and the second affair with Kimberly Powell has merit (reportedly captured on video being affectionate at a San Jose hotel in March).
* The host believes the board would not oust Jensen so quickly after 33 years over just two extramarital affairs; there must be concrete evidence of something far more egregious.
* Jensen is a "one of one" figure (like Elon Musk) whose vision and relationships cannot be replaced. With a flat hierarchy (~60 direct reports), there is no clear successor, raising the question of whether top talent will trickle out.
* **Possible SpaceX connection:** Elon Musk previously said "that would be an honor" if asked to hire Jensen. Jensen is now a free agent, and a project like TerraFab could theoretically use someone like Jensen, though it is too early to say given unknown security concerns. News also dropped that Jensen had an intimate relationship with a *third* employee, bringing known affairs to three.

### **Tesla & Robotaxi Updates**
* **Robotaxi Availability:** Tesla’s Robotaxi account announced operations 24/7 in every city where available. This is activated by a new technology/part of the tech stack on the V15 plan.
* **Fleet & Coverage Stats:** Robotaxi is now active in 8 cities, adding Fort Worth and San Antonio. Total fleet count in Texas is 1,303 (573 are Cybercabs). Unsupervised Robotaxi launched in Austin 9.7 months ago. Population coverage is at 4.53 million people (trailing Waymo at 9.68 million). Unsupervised miles are north of 5 million (up over 13x since July 22nd). Operates 168 hours a week.
* **Assisted Driving / International:** Approved in Finland (taking the EU total to 11 countries, needing 15). Population coverage in the EU is at 15.5% (needing over 65%).
* **Cybertruck Backlog & Production:** Elon stated production will be extended through the end of summer 2027 to work through the order backlog, after which the line will shut down in about eight months and deposits returned for many people. Elon cited opportunity cost and complexity, arguing that smart, dedicated people and factory space are needed to scale CyberCab instead.
* **Host's Opinion:** The host does not buy Elon's gaslighting argument that Tesla didn't know how complex Cybertruck would be, noting CyberCab was in development long before Cybertruck. The host believes Tesla would have continued Cybertruck if it did well commercially, but running at ~10% installed capacity is unprofitable.
* **Unplugged Performance Offer:** Unplugged Performance offered to fund Cybertruck production via an investor consortium, running it at no cost to Tesla's floor space or focus, to build the Cybertruck, a three-row CyberSUV, and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler.

### **SpaceX, Starlink, & AI Compute**
* **Starlink Mini 2:** Announced by SpaceX, currently open for pre-order by invitation only. Features a built-in battery with up to 4.5 hours of operating time (swappable spare battery), thinner build, improved Wi-Fi, and a USB-C port instead of a custom port. Shipping starts next month.
* **Grok & Starlink Integration:** Elon noted Starlink software is well suited to training superintelligence. Grok has a new training and reinforcement learning stack developed with breakthroughs from Starlink engineers. Elon predicts space traffic will exceed Earth traffic by a trillion trillion times.
* **Starlink V4 & Solar Manufacturing:** V4 aims for 100 lasers per satellite (10x closer proximity, small gimbal angle). SpaceX ordered 100 gigawatts per year of HJT solar manufacturing equipment from Singulus in Germany. Elon aims for 1 terawatt per year from Earth, rising to over 1 petawatt per year from the Moon, making SpaceX worth more than Earth.
* **Flight 15:** Targeted for tomorrow, November 13th (75-minute launch window opening at 4:45 PM Central Time). Plans to catch both booster and ship (ship catch on Saturday afternoon if on plan), aiming for 14 orbits (~22-hour flight) and deploying 26 Starlink V3 satellites.
* **Supercomputer Facilities:** Official plans announced for two major American supercomputer investments totaling over $74 billion:
* Cochise County, Arizona: ~$50 billion.
* Starbase / Rio Grande Valley, Texas (near Brownsville and city landfill): ~$24 billion (will generate its own electricity rather than drawing from the local grid).
* **Anthropic Compute Rumors & Capacity:** Unconfirmed rumors suggested Anthropic might end its compute leasing arrangements with SpaceX around the middle of next year. Elon replied he'd be happy to take the compute back, but thinks Anthropic will want *more* compute, not less. The host notes that demand exceeds capacity, so any freed compute could easily be leased out or used internally.
* **Compute Pricing (Chamath & Elon):** Chamath suggested SpaceX could end Anthropic's deal on 90 days notice if supply tightens and re-lease it at 2-3x the price. Elon replied that it works both ways—if compute becomes plentiful and cheap, SpaceX revenue drops ("No crying in the casino"). The host guesses compute won't become plentiful until the 2030s.

### **SpaceX & Tesla Merger**
* **Bloomberg Report / Timeline:** Ed Ludlow reported SpaceX-Tesla merger negotiations are progressing, with a deal announcement possible as early as early December (sooner than the previously expected first half of 2027, pushed up due to midterm results, though an article mentions it could slip into early 2027).
* **Hurdles:** Boards and advisors are working through terms and governance. Key hurdles include Tesla's China operations, SpaceX's U.S. defense ties, shareholder/regulatory approval, ring-fencing Tesla's China manufacturing footprint, and determining the number of shares SpaceX must offer Tesla investors.
* **Host's Clarification:** The host clarified that previous discussions of Marvell/Lumentum style 35% drops from arbitrage play are not guaranteed for SpaceX/Tesla, though a drop remains in the range of possible outcomes depending on deal terms or whether Tesla China must be spun off.
