Cisco has the tablescraps of the leftovers. They are a complete nonfactor in the AI business.

sorry, but this is incorrect. Chuck couldn't realistically refuse to comply with anti-DEI rules for Federal Contractors. He and the board would be sued to oblivion by shareholders because US Federal is one Cisco's largest customers. Can't intentionally tank Federal contracts due to political preference. Even Chuck would understand this.

@jy you want to talk about irrelevant? how about a forced pre-recorded video msg from Jensen to all of GSX attendees.. execpt... IT'S PRIVATE and nobody in the puiblic got to see Jesnsen's "support" for the "partnership" between the two companies. nice... "here is a great video/msg Jensen has for you all but refuses to do it publically" NOT RELEVANT indeed

Why? Because of refusing Trump's anti-DEI initiative so they got blacklisted.

several months ago I was privy to a status report I should not have seen- anyway, some folks in the triple p org were working hard to “raise chucks profile in DC”. Guess it didn’t work.
