NVIDIA Postpones GTC announcements
Probably it is the right thing to do, as there is a right time and place for everything. Nvidia just send word that they are postponing their GTC announcements.
-- NVIDIA --
We have exciting products and news to share with you. But this isn’t the right time. We’re going to hold off on sharing our GTC news for now. That way, our employees, partners, the media and analysts who follow us, and our customers around the world can focus on staying safe and reducing the spread of the virus.
We will still stream tons of great content from researchers and developers who have prepared great talks. This is a time to focus on our family, our friends, our community. Our employees are working from home. Many hourly workers will not need to work but they’ll all be fully paid.
Stay safe everyone. We will get through this together.

Why it can't just be true?

Probably bad business to try to sell new products in the current economic fallout from covid, and emotionally people aren't as engaged with luxuries in acute times like these. People wouldn't be jumping on the hype train! Besides, they might have production/distribution issues of new products because of all of this stuff. Not surprising....and I've found I'm visiting tech sites less the last week or so.

I feel like I'm watching a Twilight Zone episode. In the US, 50 (fifty) people have died over the past 4-5 months from what has been attributed to COVID-19 infections, while during the same time frame 22,000+ Americans have expired from the common Flu this Flu season--yes, in the last 4-5 months. Many physicians in the US have bluntly stated that up to 80% of the people infected with the COVID-19 coronavirus could easily have already recovered and very possibly not even know they had it! That's because COVID-19 is a coronavirus strain, with light symptoms or even none!--it's not a Flu strain such as SARS, MERS, SWINE--who remembers Hong Kong flu? It's not viral pneumonia, either! Coronaviruses have until now caused common colds--all common colds are caused by coronaviruses. Yet the flu deaths are ignored--and people are panicking because of the very mild (by comparison) COVID-19 coronavirus. It's insane--I have to say I've never seen anything like it! The utter stupidity of the panic is depressing to behold--it makes you lose faith in man's ability to do and act rationally and logically. I will say, however, that in the US much of the ignorance and panic comes straight out of the press--if they don't lie outright then they certainly exaggerate ferociously. But not a single word about the Flu fatalities! It's as if they don't exist! Indeed, all of the COVID-19 coronavirus strain deaths globally in every country since the beginning of the COVID-19 debacle in China--are but a small fraction of what the Flu has claimed in just the US alone! The global number of flu fatalities since the start of the current flu season must be huge--dwarfing COVID-19 entirely--but ignored. The (D)s in the US are trying to politicize COVID-19, as usual. It's all crazy. Real mad hatter stuff!

Hmmm, probably something delayed due to covid like new products not being able to get a fixed release date?
