Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang starring in possible remake of The Spy Who Shagged Me

Nvidia’s board has launched an investigation into CEO Jensen Huang following revelations of an alleged affair and a potential commercial relationship with a Chinese intelligence operative. The board's statement came after The New York Times reported that Huang had been targeted by a foreign intelligence effort. The Times claimed that Huang had a "close relationship" with a woman named Alice Huang, who is suspected of being a Chinese spy.

Huang's email to staff expressed regret for his actions and cooperation with the investigation, while also reaffirming his commitment to national security. The nature of Huang's relationship with Alice Huang remains unclear, and the company maintains that the relationship was a normal CEO-to-customer interaction.
