> This guy created billions of dollars

No, the engineers he employed did. They will continue to do so after his departure.

That is true, but even if a good CEO does not create the value of the company, but his employees, bad CEOs prevent their employees from doing effective work.

There are too many bad CEOs, so the CEOs who are not bad, like the CEOs of NVIDIA and AMD, must still be praised, and the success of their companies was conditioned by them not being bad CEOs.

There are a lot of examples when a bad CEO, coming after a not bad CEO, has destroyed a very successful company in a few years.

jensen is pretty technical. He's like elon, very involved with the tech and the day to day. His direction shapes the product MORE than any single engineer. But, I agree with you. The engineers as a whole shape the direction of the product more than jenson. But make no mistake, jensen is a critical part of the whole.
