Jensen Huang Has Been Ousted as Nvidia CEO
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had a second affair with VP of Health Care Kimberly Powell
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has resigned as president, chief executive officer and board member, shortly after a second extramarital affair was revealed, this time involving an employee of the company.
Details:
On Wednesday, just days after Jensen Huang admitted to a first affair with a suspected Chinese spy, The New York Times reported that the Nvidia CEO also had a separate affair with Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice president of healthcare, who reports directly to him.
The same day, The Times and other outlets reported that Nvidia’s board had met to discuss the company’s future, a meeting that ultimately led to Huang’s resignation today.
Huang, 63, co-founded Nvidia in April 1993 with Curtis Priem and Chris Malachowsky, who still serves as senior vice president of engineering and operations. During his 33 years as CEO, he helped build Nvidia into a $4 trillion company.
Finance chief Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO until a permanent successor is named. The board is launching a search and will consider both internal and external candidates.
His departure ends an era in which he helped fuel the global AI boom and became a geopolitical figure, frequently meeting with top U.S. and Chinese officials. It leaves one of the world’s most valuable companies in need of a new leader, and facing the uncertainties that come with a change of this magnitude.

3 shifts that will define enterprise AI agents in 2027
Your AI agents are getting access to company data, internal tools, and production systems. So here’s the hard question: how do you give them that access without opening new security holes?
In this video by Vultr, you’ll see 3 trends that could shape enterprise agents in 2027:
Secure sandboxes: Code your agents write runs in isolation, away from production.
Specialized agent teams: Each agent gets only the tools it needs, connected through MCP and A2A.
Agent identity: Managed identities and audit logs show which agent did what. NIST is already researching it.
The common thread is security.
OPENAI
OpenAI’s Quarterly Revenue Reportedly Surpasses $10 Billion for the First Time
According to Bloomberg, OpenAI’s quarterly revenue crossed $10 billion for the first time, driven by strong demand for its latest AI models.
Details:
The figure represents an increase of nearly 50% from the $6.7 billion reportedly recorded in Q2.
The company’s adjusted operating margin also improved, narrowing from -150% in Q2 to -109% in Q3, suggesting that its profitability metrics are moving in a better direction.
Bloomberg also reported that OpenAI has reached an annual revenue run rate of $50 billion.
The results follow a period in which OpenAI reportedly faced slower growth compared with Anthropic, which has gained ground in the enterprise AI market.
OpenAI's recent growth has been supported by more competitive pricing, discounts, improvements to its models, and a stronger focus on enterprise products and AI agents.

How to Create Your Own Instagram Stories Effects
Effect Builder turns written descriptions into custom visual effects that people can apply to their Instagram Stories.
Go to https://edits.com/effectbuilder and enter a prompt describing the effect you want to create. For example:
Create a warm vintage film effect with subtle grain, faded colors, and a soft nostalgic look.
There’s also an option to have Instagram’s AI rewrite your prompt.
Then you can upload your own photos to preview the AI-generated effect, and ask for changes in follow-up prompts until you’re happy with the result.
Finally, you can submit your effect to Instagram directly from Effect Builder. It must pass a safety review before it becomes available to other users.
Once an effect is approved, it “shows up in Instagram Stories for anyone to use.” Your Instagram handle will appear on it, so viewers can tap through to your profile. People who see the effect can tap “Try it” to use it too.
Notes:
Effect Builder is available in the US to people over 18.
Creating and publishing effects is free.
You can find all your created effects under “My effects” in your Stories.

The three companies are pushing back against proposed changes that would require digital platforms to compensate publishers for displaying news links and introduce new rules governing AI use.
The company has hired Francis Davidson, founder of AI travel agent Odessia, in a deal that appears to be an acqui-hire. Odessia, which raised a $6 million pre-seed round led by Sequoia, has shut down following the acquisition.
Clément Delangue says the company will continue supporting open-source AI following Jensen Huang’s departure from Nvidia. His comments come as Nvidia’s planned $12.9 billion acquisition of Hugging Face remains pending, with a target closing date in the first half of 2027.
Trained on more than 100 million cell profiles across 68 tissues, the model predicts how genetic variants affect specific cell types and biological states. DeepMind says it identifies nearly twice as many gene-expression-changing variants as its previous leading model, potentially helping researchers connect genetic changes to disease and identify new treatment targets.
That’s a wrap!
