Nvidia investigating CEO Jensen Huang over affair with alleged Chinese spy
According to a report by BBC's Zoe Kleinman, Nvidia is investigating its 63-year-old CEO, Jensen Huang, over an extramarital affair with Alice Huang, the former CEO of a Singapore-based data centre company who is alleged to be a Chinese spy. The scandal intersects with intense geopolitical rivalry between the US and China over artificial intelligence, where Nvidia's high-end chips are crucial. Megaspeed, headed by Alice Huang, has faced suggestions of involvement in illicitly transferring tech to China, though Beijing denies she engaged in espionage. Nvidia stated there is no evidence so far that Jensen passed on sensitive data, and an internal probe is underway. US President Donald Trump and Nvidia's board have expressed support for Huang amid the ongoing investigation.
