Scandal at NVIDIA The story of betrayal, spies, and lovers shaking the owner of America’s leading company. Nvidia’s owner, Jensen Huang, admitted to having an affair with a woman suspected of spying for China, while his company—the chip giant—launches an independent investigation into whether it was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation. “I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did,” Huang told employees in an apology. It is reported that Huang maintained an intimate relationship with Alice Huang, an executive at Megaspeed, whom U.S. intelligence identified as a Chinese intelligence asset. The Nvidia CEO has pressured the Trump administration to ease restrictions on chip sales to China. Nvidia says it has no reason to believe company secrets or national security have been compromised, but its board is reviewing the allegations. Now, a reported intelligence warning about the woman is drawing renewed scrutiny.
