Everything Trump has said about Jensen Huangs Nvidia saga
Trump defended Jensen Huang, answered questions about what he knew, and pitched a former tech titan to run Nvidia after Huang resigned.
Jensen Huang, the co-founder of Nvidia, stepped down as CEO after allegations of two extramarital affairs surfaced. One affair was reportedly with a Nvidia executive named Kimberly Powell, and the other with Alice Huang, a former executive at a customer company suspected of spying for Beijing. Trump and Huang had a close relationship, with Huang being a tech adviser to Trump and Nvidia seeking permission from the administration to sell more AI chips in China.
When Huang apologized to employees, Trump expressed his belief in Huang's honor. Trump was unaware of the alleged ties between Alice Huang and Chinese intelligence when he met Huang in Beijing in May. On November 12th, Nvidia announced Huang's resignation, and Trump proposed Apple's CEO Tim Cook as a replacement.
