CEO of world’s biggest company admits to affair amid Chinese spy
There are fears the American CEO of one of the world’s most powerful AI companies has fallen for a honeypot operation orchestrated by China.
US tech giant Nvidia has initiated an independent investigation after reports claimed its CEO, Jensen Huang, had an affair with a suspected Chinese spy. The company's board stated they had no reason to believe Nvidia's secrets or national security were compromised. Jensen Huang admitted to being unfaithful to his wife, apologizing for the pain caused to her and their children.
US intelligence officials believed Alice Huang, a Chinese businesswoman closely linked to Jensen Huang, was a spy for Beijing. Nvidia, a leading player in AI infrastructure, is worth an estimated $4.5 trillion. The company's CEO has been in charge for over 30 years and rescued the company from bankruptcy multiple times. In response to the allegations, members of Congress wrote to Jensen Huang, requesting an appearance before them to discuss Nvidia's security protocols against foreign adversary espionage.
