Not every CEO can actually build what their company sells, but Nvidia's Jensen Huang? Different breed entirely.

The guy could literally sit down and design those microchips himself if needed. We're talking world-class computer scientist meets hands-on engineer—a combo you almost never see at the executive level anymore.

In an industry where understanding the product deeply matters more than ever—especially with AI and compute infrastructure exploding—that kind of technical fluency from the top creates a completely different competitive edge.
