Over the years, they also regularly gave commendation to each other. Huang used to call Musk "GPU supreme", saying "Even without the Neuralink chip implant, Elon Musk's brain still has a lot of stuff". Neuralink is a research company that implants chips into the human brain, operated by Musk.
Last year, on the podcast Joe Rogan Elk, Huang told of his friendship with Musk. "I'm lucky to know Elon Musk. I helped him create his first computer for Model 3, Model S, as well as when he wanted to start developing his own car, he recalled.
Huang said the two of you "have been working together since early". When Nvid released the AI Computer AI DGX-1, "no one in the world wanted to buy it". "I have no orders. Nobody wants to buy it, except Elon," he said.
"He said: ‘You know, I have a company that can actually use this.' I thought, oh, this is my first customer. He said it was an AI company, a non-profit organization, and they really needed one of these super computers. I packed one, drove myself up to San Francisco and delivered Elon in 2016", Huang said.
February 2024, Musk posted the same photo of Huang in this event. In the photo, Huang is about to sign on DGX-1 before delivering to the 2016 OpenAI team.
That image quickly attracted great attention on social networking. According to Letsdogo Pythagorean, the moment not only represented leaps in promoting AI technology, but also strengthened the relationship between two highly influential characters in the technology industry.
June 2024, Musk continued to give praise to his longtime friend. When a show host of *Bloofberg's (Bloofberg) posted the Huang interview video on the time of the dishes, brushing toilets at the fast food store, Elon Musk commented: "That's the right attitude. When toilet paper is scarce in the pandemic, I always make sure our factories and offices have enough toilet paper".
Huang has also expressed his admiration for Musk. "Tesla is going a long way ahead of the self-driving car. One day, every car will have to have this feature", Huang said in an interview with Yahoo FinanceJune May/2025. Musk then replied on X that "Thank you Jensen".
This year's 19 March, Elon Musk turns on X that he is "a very admired man" Nyvid and Jensen Huang. In the post, Musk confirmed Tesla and SpaceX will continue to purchase Nvid's AI chip in large numbers.
