It's pretty funny that Lisa Su is related to Jensen Huang. Like McDonalds and Burger King being owned by different brothers.

- ChuckNorris89 3y agoShe's not related to him, that was some myth that spread online but it's not true, please stop spreading it without citing concrete sources.
- sergiotapia 3y ago> Technically, it is safe to say that Lisa Su's own grandfather is actually Jen-Hsun Huang's uncle. Although they aren't really niece and uncles, they are very close relatives. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/253736/20201030/fact-check-nvidia-ceo-uncle-amds-dr-lisa-su.htm https://www.techtimes.com/articles/253736/20201030/fact-chec...

- saiya-jin 3y agoSome decade and a half ago my now ex gf who is microbiologist told me that mankind at one time in the past went through some drastic filter and that all humans alive are descendants out of just 5 mothers. And they could have been related too in the past. So yes we are all one big family, not that it helps with anything
- delfinom 3y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_Eve https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_Eve >One common misconception surrounding Mitochondrial Eve is that since all women alive today descended in a direct unbroken female line from her, she must have been the only woman alive at the time.[45] However, nuclear DNA studies indicate that the effective population size of the ancient human never dropped below tens of thousands.[49] Other women living during Eve's time may have descendants alive today but not in a direct female line.[50]

- dchftcs 3y agoIt's not very surprising they'd be distant relatives, as a matter of odds. Taiwan is a small place and Taiwanese Han people came from a relatively non-diverse group of immigrants (e.g. largely Hokkien). For these two to have got a good education and risen to the top like this as immigrants to the US, likelier than not they were from educated or rich families. If you filter for Taiwanese families educated or rich during the years they were born, the scope would probably have been somewhat small and covered an even smaller range of bloodlines, possibly even all somewhat related to a handful of historical clans. The degree of separation between people like them from a small geographical region tends to be fairly small in general.
- KeplerBoy 3y agoMaybe the bigger surprise is that both companies are led by Taiwanese Americans. What's the story behind the semiconductor industry being centered at Taiwan of all places?
- claritise 3y agoMostly government incentives... the taiwanese government had amazing foresight when most other countries didn't and was well positioned to attract their nationals back from the USA (at the time intel / TI veterans) to build out taiwain's hardware manufacturing sector.. which eventually led to the founding of TSMC.. and the rest is history. Right time and place, but more importantly, a government with amazing judgement and foresight.
