Nvidia CEO Resigns Amid Spy Concerns Over Relationship

US intelligence agencies have not conclusively determined whether Alice Huang, the Chinese businesswoman who had an extramarital affair with Nvidia founder Jensen Huang, was recruited by Beijing to spy, according to a CNN report citing sources. Officials at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the CIA remain unconvinced that intercepted communications prove Alice knowingly passed sensitive information, though other Trump administration officials view her business ties and access as counterintelligence risks. The FBI has investigated the relationship for at least a year, and the Justice Department has reached no definitive conclusion. Alice Huang, a former Chinese state television journalist and executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, is under scrutiny over suspected diversion of restricted AI chips to China. Jensen Huang resigned as Nvidia CEO this week amid the controversy, with the board launching an independent investigation into potential conflicts of interest.
