  "account": "Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, has stepped down amid a Washington controversy concerning US policy on artificial intelligence and China, following a memo from Senator Marco Rubio. The resignation of Huang, the head of the US technology behemoth, came to light after a dispute over who should steer American strategy towards China in the realm of AI. The Washington Post disclosed that the resignation was the result of an internal conflict in Washington, extending beyond the company to the corridors of the US administration. The newspaper cited an unnamed source who claimed that US Secretary of State and National Security Advisor Marco Rubio had sent a memo to President Donald Trump, cautioning him about Huang's purported connections with an individual believed to be working for China, based on a report from the Central Intelligence Agency. The memo, reportedly leaked to the media, has sparked a series of events leading to Huang's resignation on Thursday, amidst disagreements over managing technological relations with China and the US restrictions on the AI sector.",
