Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admits affair

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to having an affair with Alice Huang, a former executive at a Singapore-based company. Huang took full responsibility for his actions and promised to work to regain the trust of Nvidia's employees, board, partners, and shareholders. The U.S. government has initiated an independent investigation into the matter, with a committee of independent directors overseeing it.

Huang has expressed his commitment to protecting Nvidia and supporting American national security. The developments are likely to negatively impact the chipmaker's stock, which has already fallen due to concerns about the sustainability of the AI boom. Critics are calling for congressional inquiries and increased scrutiny of Nvidia's sales to China.
