Musk Offers to Hire Nvidia CEO Huang if Board Ousts Him Over Affairs

Elon Musk said he would be honored to hire Jensen Huang if Nvidia's board ousts him following revelations of two extramarital affairs, including one with a woman U.S. authorities consider a Chinese spy. The governance crisis has sent Nvidia's stock falling sharply. Nvidia's board met Wednesday evening to decide whether to remove its CEO, with the outcome unknown. The New York Times reported a second affair involving a subordinate, vice president Kimberly Powell, which could constitute grounds for dismissal in the U.S. Huang has led the company since 1993. Huang, 63, has no designated successor, and his ouster would also deprive Donald Trump of an informal AI advisor. Nvidia's stock has dropped 28% since early October, and the company has invested hundreds of billions in its ecosystem.
