Jensen Huang's Style Evolution: Unveiling a New Leather Jacket at GTC 2024

At the GTC 2024 extravaganza, where silicon chips usually steal the show, it was Jensen Huang's wardrobe that sparked headlines. The Nvidia CEO, traditionally clad in black leather, took a fashion leap into the exotic with a jacket that screamed luxury — no, not actual lizard skin, but close enough. He sported a Tom Ford creation from the Spring/Summer 2023 collection, embossed to mimic the luxe texture of lizard skin, made from less controversial calf leather.

Rumors had it pegged at a cool $8,990, but here's a juicy tidbit: savvy shoppers could snag it at a 40% discount from Italian luxury retailer Luisa Via Roma. So, if you've got a spare six Nvidia shares lying around, it might be time to invest in your wardrobe.

Aside from sartorial revelations, there were some tech announcements too, like the unveiling of the new Blackwell B200 GPU and Nvidia's AI integration in the cuLitho workflow for computational lithography acceleration. But let's face it, this time around, it was Huang's leather jacket that took center stage. In the tech world, where innovation is fleeting, style, it seems, is eternal.
