Nvidia board weighs ousting CEO Jensen Huang over affair reports

Nvidia's board is considering whether to remove CEO Jensen Huang following reports of two extramarital affairs, including one with an alleged Chinese intelligence operative and another with a company executive. The Wall Street Journal reported Huang had a relationship with Kimberly Powell, Nvidia's vice president of healthcare, while another report linked him to Alice Huang, allegedly recruited by China's Ministry of State Security to gather information on Nvidia's AI technology. The board met Wednesday to discuss his removal, despite expressing confidence in him on Sunday. Under company rules, directors can remove Huang with a majority vote, with or without cause. The allegations stem from video footage and former staff accounts, and both Huang and Powell are married to other partners.
