The AI whirlwind stirred up by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang swept through the COMPUTEX trade show in Taipei. During his visit, he not only devoured red bean cakes at Hon Hai's booth and cherished a gifted AI companion robot, Poketomo, but also sat directly on the floor at GIGABYTE's booth to drink Taiwan Beer, instantly infusing the typically rigid tech exhibition with a touch of local warmth and life.
Huang's tour of the exhibition felt like a large-scale reunion with old friends and a food pilgrimage. At noon on June 3, he appeared at Hon Hai's booth, which was already packed. However, the moment he saw the freshly baked, aromatic Taiwanese traditional snack, red bean cakes, his eyes lit up. He took a big bite in front of the cameras, nodding and praising the taste with a look of pure satisfaction on his face. He then shared the cakes with the media and fans present.
Subsequently, Hon Hai Chairman Young Liu presented Huang with Poketomo, an AI companion robot developed by Hon Hai's investee, Japan's Sharp. The robot immediately caught Huang's attention, and he proactively put it on. He even asked Liu, "I have two kids, can I have two?" instantly drawing laughter from the crowd.
Another highlight of Huang's visit was the unexpected interaction at GIGABYTE's booth. In front of a display wall filled with advanced hardware like AI servers and network switches, Huang and GIGABYTE Group President Ethan Lee got so caught up in their conversation that Huang unlocked a new pose, sitting cross-legged on the exhibition floor. Each holding a bottle of Taiwan Beer, they laughed heartily and clinked bottles.
In the same frame, high-tech chips, local Taiwan Beer, and a casual sitting posture created a stark contrast, once again showing how this global tech titan can easily let his hair down and "drink the Taiwanese way," bridging the gap with his supply chain partners.
