Jensen Huang has been a frequent subject of news coverage, in part due to the success of his company (Nvidia), and in part due to his iconic signature style: cool leather jackets.

This market resolves YES if there is footage of Jensen Huang giving any interview and/or public speaking event (e.g. keynote, presentation, or anything similar) before October 2024 where he is not wearing a leather jacket.

Resolution details

• "Speak at a public event" will be very broadly defined. It solely needs to satisfy three simple criteria: (1) planned, (2) Jensen Huang is speaking, and (3) the public can see the footage.

• He needs to not be wearing the leather jacket for at least >50% of the footage.

• This is forward looking: it only counts if it's after March 22nd.

• My definition of "leather jacket" will be broad. I don't know and/or care about subtle differences about what exactly is/isn't a "leather jacket". If it looks anything like the pic above, it counts.

• Here are some examples:

  • GTC Keynote - wears a leather jacket.

  • 2024 SIEPR Economic Summit - wears a leather jacket.

  • Jim Cramer interview - wears a leather jacket.

  • "What’s Jensen been cooking?" (March 2020) - not wearing a leather jacket.

  • Stanford Tech Ventures Program (2008) - not wearing a leather jacket.

  • All of these videos would count as sufficient footage.
