Nvidia launches investigation into CEO’s affair with suspected Chinese spy

Nvidia, the world's most valuable tech company, has launched an independent investigation into claims that its CEO, Jensen Huang, had an affair with a suspected Chinese spy. The board of directors stated that there is no reason to believe the company's secrets or national security were compromised. Huang admitted to being "unfaithful" to his wife and apologized for hurting her and their children.

US intelligence officials suspect Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, who had a close relationship with Huang, was a spy for Beijing. Huang took full responsibility for his actions and expressed regret, emphasizing his commitment to Nvidia, his employees, the board, and shareholders. The company, a key player in AI infrastructure, is worth around $4.5 trillion.

Congress members urged Huang to testify about Nvidia's security protocols after receiving reports about the relationship.
