Nvidia board weighs Jensen Huang's future amid affair and spy allegations

Nvidia’s board met Wednesday to discuss CEO Jensen Huang’s future following reports of an affair with a subordinate and a relationship with a woman identified by US intelligence as a Chinese spy, according to sources. Huang’s potential exit would create uncertainty for Nvidia, which controls about 90 percent of the AI chip market and is among the world’s most valuable companies. He is the largest individual shareholder with a 3.56 percent stake, and no clear successor exists. President Trump, previously informed of the spy allegations, has defended Huang as an “honorable man.” The New York Times reported the espionage claims last month, and China has denied them. Nvidia’s code of conduct prohibits personal relationships that create conflicts.
