Chip-Riese: Nvidia-Chef hatte Affäre mit möglicher chinesischer Spionin

Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, found himself embroiled in controversy after admitting to having an affair with a woman believed to be a Chinese intelligence asset. The tech industry was shaken by the revelation, as Nvidia's chips are crucial to the development of artificial intelligence. Huang, a leading co-founder of Nvidia, had initially denied these allegations but later admitted to the affair.

Despite the initial doubts, Nvidia's board of directors stated that they had no reason to believe that any corporate secrets or US national security were compromised. The investigation by the company's board will continue to look into all available information. Huang, 63, remains the trusted leader of Nvidia among its board members.

The affair came to light after media reports suggested a woman close to Huang might have been recruited by China's intelligence services. Huang's close relationship with former US President Donald Trump was also discussed, as Trump expressed confidence in Huang's character and suggested he might apologize for the incident.
