  "account": "Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has stated that the chipmaker's business dealings with Singapore-based Megaspeed International were \"normal and not unusual\" following a report by The New York Times that an executive from the company is under investigation for allegedly spying for China. Huang clarified that his company had verified Megaspeed's compliance with export regulations, ensuring that their artificial intelligence processors were not illegally sent to China. He also mentioned that they had studied all deployments of Nvidia's GPUs and counted every one, adding that he believes the US government has also done the same. Huang further stated that his interactions with the alleged Chinese agent, Megaspeed's Huang Le, were typical of those with Chinese customers and executives, and she is no longer with the company. Huang added that he was not informed by the US government about their suspicions regarding Huang Le. The escalating US-China geopolitical tensions have resulted in tighter restrictions on exports of American technology, leading to investigations and charges of smuggling Nvidia's advanced AI chips to China.",
