  "account": "Nvidia has engaged prominent New York law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to conduct an investigation into the alleged affair between its CEO, Jensen Huang, and an individual suspected of being a Chinese spy. Huang, co-founder of Nvidia, admitted to a romantic relationship with Alice Huang, whose employer, Megaspeed, is an Nvidia customer. The firm announced that Joon Kim, a former US Attorney, will lead the \"thorough and independent investigation\". The FBI is also probing the matter. Nvidia, a key player in the US AI boom, saw its shares drop to near-year lows following the news, amid concerns over potential business and national security implications. Megaspeed, previously suspected of diverting Nvidia chips to China, has been cleared by Nvidia, although the US government had not informed the firm of this. In a statement, Nvidia's board affirmed it had no reason to believe company secrets or national security were compromised. The House Foreign Affairs Committee has requested Huang's appearance for a closed-door briefing, though he has yet to confirm attendance. Wachtell, known for representing major tech clients like OpenAI and Salesforce, will oversee the probe, which is expected to be treated as urgent due to Huang's pivotal role in AI development.",
