China's Top Spy Agency Recruited Woman Who Targeted Jensen Huang

A Chinese woman, Alice Huang, who was involved with the head of a major artificial intelligence company in the United States, has been revealed as a spy for Beijing's top intelligence agency, according to sources familiar with U.S. surveillance. The National Security Agency and the Central Intelligence Agency are believed to have been monitoring Ms. Huang, a Chinese national, for a period of at least one year.

President Trump was informed of her connection to the Chinese spy agency last year, but decided not to take any action. Ms. Huang, who speaks English fluently and has strong ties to the AI chip industry, including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and leaders of Gigabyte, one of the top manufacturers of Nvidia supercomputers, has been seen in public with Mr. Huang, sparking speculation about her role as a spy.

Her company, Megaspeed, recently made a significant investment in advanced AI microchips, raising concerns among industry insiders about the origins of this move. Ms. Huang is believed to be connected to a network of companies and investors in Shanghai and Zhejiang province which have pushed aggressively into data centers, providing computing power for AI.

This network has also financial ties to China's military establishment through an investment in a cybersecurity subsidiary of China Electronics Technology Group, one of the country's largest producers of military technology. Following the publication of these reports, Republican lawmakers have called for Jensen Huang to testify before Congress about the issue.
