Former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has agreed to testify before Congress, as House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast announced on Thursday. Huang stepped down as CEO following allegations of an affair with a woman suspected of spying for China. He agreed to testify after senior lawmakers threatened to subpoena him. The testimony is set to take place before Thanksgiving, which is later this month.

The session will be held behind closed doors, but it will likely be recorded on video and transcribed. While Congress may hold a public reckoning next year, the current inquiry could have significant consequences for Nvidia's stock price and the AI industry.
