At the 51st SIGGRAPH Graphics Conference, the "fireside chat" between NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg attracted widespread attention. The content not only covered the future development trends of artificial intelligence and simulation, but also featured a unique coat. The exchange ceremony added a different color to this technological event. The two technology giants had in-depth discussions on important issues such as the open source strategy and development direction of artificial intelligence, demonstrating their common vision in promoting the advancement of AI technology. This conversation was not only a technical exchange, but also a friendly interaction across companies and individuals, reflecting the balance between competition and cooperation among technology leaders.
In an hour-long conversation, the two tech giants reached a consensus on the direction of artificial intelligence. Huang Renxun highly praised Meta’s open source large model strategy and emphasized the importance of open source for the development of AI. He vividly said: Just like the leather jacket I am wearing, I don’t want to make it myself, but I want someone to make it for me. Then these leather materials need to be open source and everyone can use it.
As the conversation came to an end, a surprising photo appeared on the big screen: Huang Jenxun and Zuckerberg were exchanging coats. Huang Renxun explained: This was taken last year when we exchanged coats after having dinner together, and it caused a sensation on the Internet.
Continuing this tradition, Zuckerberg prepared a customized black fur collared fur coat for Jen-Hsun Huang on site. In return, Huang gave Zuckerberg his signature leather jacket. This scene not only shows the friendship between the two technology leaders, but also adds a light and humorous atmosphere to the serious technology discussion.
Zuckerberg also jokingly said: Your dress is obviously more valuable because it has been worn. This sentence triggered laughter in the audience and also hinted at the close relationship between the two.
This interesting exchange not only showcased the personal charisma of technology industry leaders, but also reflected their shared vision in advancing the industry. Although Nvidia and Meta compete in some areas, the friendly interaction between the two CEOs shows that cooperation and openness are still the main theme in the face of the more ambitious goal of promoting the advancement of AI technology.
This unique dialogue not only showed the thinking of technology leaders on the future development direction of artificial intelligence, but also brought warmth and hope to the industry with its relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. In the fiercely competitive technology field, the concepts of cooperation and openness remain the key forces driving industry progress.
