Perplexity AI co-founder and CEO Aravind Srinivas shared two key entrepreneurship lessons he learned from Nvidia Corp's (NASDAQ:NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk during an episode of the "20VC" podcast hosted by venture capitalist Harry Stebbings, released Monday.
Srinivas said Huang taught him the importance of operating with constant urgency, while Musk showed him that great founders are driven by purpose rather than money.
Founder Mindset
Srinivas said one of the biggest lessons he learned from Huang is to always stay alert, regardless of how successful a company becomes.
Speaking about Nvidia, Srinivas said Huang runs the chip giant with the mindset that it could be just 30 days away from going out of business.
