Nvidia CEO faces ouster over spy scandal; Musk says hiring him would be an honor

timesofindia.indiatimes.com —

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang faces potential removal by the company's board amid a scandal involving admitted affairs and suspected espionage ties, with Elon Musk saying hiring him "would be an honor." The board is reportedly preparing to oust Huang after he admitted to an affair with Alice Huang, a woman US intelligence suspects of spying for China, followed by a second reported affair with a senior Nvidia executive. The company has lost over $450 billion in market value since the board opened a probe. Nvidia's stock has dropped about $1 trillion since the first spy report emerged. Musk's supportive comment came in response to a question on X about hiring Huang, as analysts debate whether the board will actually fire its founder.
