Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang sent research reports on Sundays to SoundHound’s CEO for feedback—an unusual ritual that helped grow the $5 billion AI firm
Nvidia 執行長 Jensen Huang 會在星期天早晨寄送研究報告給 SoundHound 執行長,請他提供意見——這個不同尋常的習慣,成為推動這家價值 50 億美元 AI 公司成長的關鍵之一。
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang struck up a relationship with SoundHound AI founder Keyvan Mohajer nearly a decade ago—one that included Sunday morning research exchanges and hands-on inspiration. The bond helped shape Mohajer’s journey from a Stanford dorm room idea into an AI voice technology company worth $5.4 billion. Along the way, Mohajer has drawn leadership inspiration not just from Huang, but also from Charlie Chaplin’s timeless creativity.
Nvidia 執行長 Jensen Huang 近十年前與 SoundHound AI 創辦人 Keyvan Mohajer 建立起一段特殊的關係——兩人之間包括星期天早晨的研究報告交流與實務上的啟發。這份聯繫,幫助 Mohajer 將他在史丹佛宿舍裡的創意,發展成一家市值達 54 億美元的 AI 語音技術公司。在這一路上,Mohajer 不僅從 Huang 身上汲取領導靈感,也從 Charlie Chaplin 永不過時的創造力中獲得啟發。
One random encounter can change the course of an entire business career—and for SoundHound AI cofounder Keyvan Mohajer, that came when he met Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang around 10 years ago.
一場偶然的相遇,足以改變整個職涯的方向——對於 SoundHound AI 聯合創辦人 Keyvan Mohajer 而言,那場轉捩點就是約十年前他與 Nvidia 執行長 Jensen Huang 的初次會面。
“It’s been one of the good things in my life to cross paths with Jensen and Nvidia,” Mohajer told Fortune, recalling that the two became acquainted because Huang “had a passion for what’s the next big thing, and he became very interested in our field.”
「能與 Jensen 以及 Nvidia 相遇,是我人生中的幸運之一。」Mohajer 在接受《Fortune》採訪時回憶道,兩人結識的契機是因為 Huang 「對『下一個重大創新』充滿熱情,並對我們的領域非常感興趣。」
That “thing,” was SoundHound AI—an AI voice communication company that first began in 2004 in his Stanford University dorm room.
那個「創新」,正是 SoundHound AI——一家起源於 2004 年、在他史丹佛大學宿舍中誕生的 AI 語音溝通公司。
And the unlikely encounter set the stage for a decade-long relationship that resulted in leadership inspiration and even a bit of homework for Mohajer on some weekends.
而這場不期而遇,開啟了一段長達十年的關係,不僅帶來領導啟發,甚至讓 Mohajer 在週末時偶爾有「功課」要交。
On a Sunday morning, specifically, Huang would send Mohajer research papers with notes. “I had to read it and give my feedback,” Mohajer recalled.
具體來說,在星期天早晨,Huang 會寄給 Mohajer 附有筆記的研究報告。「我必須閱讀並提供回饋。」Mohajer 回憶道。
This always-on mentality is something that’s unsurprising coming from Huang; after all, he’s admitted he is someone who works seven days of the week and even finds it hard to not think about work. But Huang’s hands-on nature, of all-in on business—even on weekends—became a source of inspiration for Mohajer.
這種「隨時在線」的工作心態,對 Huang 來說並不意外;畢竟他坦言自己每週工作七天,甚至難以不去想工作。不過,Huang 這種全情投入、親力親為的態度——即使在週末——成為 Mohajer 的靈感來源。
In the end, their exchanges impressed Huang and even contributed to the company’s success.
最終,兩人的交流讓 Huang 印象深刻,也在一定程度上促進了公司成功。
SoundHound IPO’d in 2022, and by the end of 2023, Nvidia became an investor, purchasing about 1.73 million shares in Mohajer’s company. Its market cap has since soared to about $5.4 billion at time of publication.
SoundHound 於 2022 年上市,而在 2023 年底,Nvidia 成為該公司的投資者,購買約 173 萬股。至今,SoundHound 的市值已攀升至約 54 億美元。
“He’s an amazing person, engineer and leader,” Mohajer said warmly about Huang. “Our relationship with him has been great.”
「他是一位了不起的人、工程師與領導者。」Mohajer 熱情地談到 Huang,「我們與他的關係一直都非常好。」
Work-life balance is no problem, when you find your passion
當你找到熱情時,工作與生活的平衡就不再是問題
Growing an idea into a multi-billion-dollar company has been no easy feat for anyone, but Mohajer said it has been made easier by the fact he’s found what he loves doing—and it’s allowed him to blur the lines between work-life balance.
將一個想法發展成一家市值數十億美元的公司絕非易事,但 Mohajer 表示,因為他找到了自己熱愛的事,使得這條路走得更順,也讓他能自然地模糊「工作與生活」的界線。
In fact, Mohajer starts his day before the crack of dawn, usually before 5 a.m., a time that he called his “golden hours” when no one else is awake to reply to his messages.
事實上,Mohajer 每天黎明前就開始工作,通常在早上 5 點以前。他稱這段時間為自己的「黃金時光」,因為此時沒有人會打擾或回覆訊息。
“Work-life balance is not a problem because I really enjoy it,” he said. “If you work to live, then work-life balance is a big question… but in my case, I really enjoy my work, so it’s not a problem.”
「工作與生活的平衡對我不是問題,因為我真的很享受這一切。」他說,「如果你是為了生活而工作,那麼平衡確實是一個大問題……但對我來說,我熱愛工作,所以這不是困擾。」
And even when he escapes to spend time with his family, his passion for his work still creeps back in—but instead of being mad about it, he embraces it.
即便他抽空陪伴家人,他對工作的熱情仍會自然湧現——但他並不排斥,反而欣然接受。
“I do spend a lot of hours working. And even sometimes I go wash dishes and I’m still thinking about my work,” Mohajer said. “That can be therapeutic, and it can give you really good ideas. Sometimes I go exercise, and when I’m on a run, I come up with great ideas or solve new problems.”
「我確實花了很多時間在工作上。有時我去洗碗,腦中仍在思考工作。」Mohajer 說道,「那其實是一種療癒,也能激發靈感。有時我運動、跑步時,也常冒出新點子或解決問題的靈感。」
Mohajer’s leadership inspirations: Jensen Huang—and Charlie Chaplin
Mohajer 的領導靈感來源:Jensen Huang 與 Charlie Chaplin
On top of learning about being hands-on from Huang, Mohajer said he’s been inspired by one of his favorite films, Modern Times—which was released in 1936.
除了從 Huang 身上學到「親力親為」的精神外,Mohajer 表示他也受到最愛電影之一《摩登時代》(1936 年上映)的啟發。
“What really inspired me was that Charlie Chaplin, he directed it, he produced it, he was the main actor, he wrote the story, and he made the music,” Mohajer said to Fortune. “And it’s just an example of something being so hands on—and they’re all amazing. The music is amazing, the storyline is amazing, the acting is amazing.”
「讓我深受感動的是,Charlie Chaplin 不僅導演、製作,還親自主演、編寫劇本、創作音樂,」Mohajer 在接受《Fortune》訪問時說道。「這正是一種全方位親力親為的典範——音樂精彩、劇情動人、表演更是非凡。」
Mohajer said he wanted to emulate Chaplin in his own company: understanding technology, business, fundraising, recruitment, and more.
Mohajer 表示他希望在自己的公司中效法 Chaplin,親自理解科技、商業、募資與人才招募等各個面向。
“When it’s for the first time I’m doing it, I know that I’m not experienced, and then I learn, and I become good at it, and I expand my horizon,” Mohajer said. “And I just saw that in him, and he was just so fluent at it and that was an inspiration.”
「當我第一次做某件事時,我知道自己還不熟練,但我會學習、進步、拓展視野,」Mohajer 說道。「我在 Chaplin 身上看到這一點——他能流暢地掌握所有領域,那對我來說是很大的啟發。」
