Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns amid scandals, Trump administration weighs Lutnick's removal
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has abruptly resigned amid multiple scandals, including alleged affairs with employees and suspected ties to a Chinese spy, with fallout now reaching the Trump administration. The resignation has sent shockwaves through the AI industry. A third female scandal has emerged, with Reuters reporting Huang had an intimate relationship with another employee. Bloomberg noted Huang recently called himself "garbage" and said "I don't care anymore." The White House is reportedly discussing whether to remove Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who opposed export restrictions on Nvidia AI chips to China despite spy concerns, drawing criticism from Republicans. Huang and Lutnick have both agreed to testify before Congress regarding the allegations. The Trump administration had been considering export controls on advanced AI chips to a Singapore company linked to the suspected spy, but Lutnick's opposition delayed the action.
