Memes mocking Jensen Huang spread online, from 'Gangnam Style' parody to foldable phone gag

Memes mocking Jensen Huang, the former CEO of AI chipmaker Nvidia who stepped down amid a series of extramarital affairs scandals, are spreading rapidly online.

The BBC reported that countless memes are being generated on social media around the allegations against Huang, and noted that the videos are being produced using the very AI technology he helped create.

Among the most widely shared is a video superimposing Huang and his alleged mistress Alice Huang — also known as Huang Le — onto footage of a couple caught on a live broadcast camera during a Coldplay concert in September last year. In the clip, Huang is shown embracing Huang Le from behind as they watch the performance, only to pull away in shock when they appear on the venue's giant screen. Huang then covers his face with an awkward expression before disappearing from his seat.

Another viral clip involves Apple's first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo. One half of the unfolded screen shows Huang with his wife, Lori Huang, in an affectionate moment — but when the other half of the phone is opened, Huang Le is seen leaning on his shoulder on the other side.

Videos splicing Huang and his alleged affair partners into films and music videos have also gained traction online.

One user posted a clip inserting Huang into a highlight scene from the film "Interstellar," in which the protagonist screams as he watches his past self — replacing the lead character with Huang.

A parody of singer Psy's hit music video "Gangnam Style" has also emerged. In the clip, elevator doors open to reveal Huang dancing with his hips swaying side to side, while Huang Le and Kimberly Powell — Nvidia's vice president of healthcare and another alleged extramarital partner — lie on the floor beneath him, chins resting in their hands.

The BBC said "ironically, all of these videos were made using AI technology that Huang helped advance." It added that while Huang had built Nvidia into a global AI chipmaker through countless crises, he ultimately ended his own glittering career through poor judgment.
