Trump-Nvidia CEO ties under scrutiny after spy affair report
President Donald Trump's close ties with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang have come under renewed scrutiny after revelations about Huang's affair with a Chinese businesswoman alleged to be a spy for Beijing. Trump said Monday he was "amazed" by the revelations concerning the Silicon Valley ally, who also faces an FBI probe. Over the past two years, Huang has supported Trump's AI agenda and met him many times as Nvidia lobbied for looser restrictions on advanced AI chip sales to China. Lawmakers have called to halt such exports, while Huang and the White House argue sales keep Chinese customers reliant on US technology. Trump said November 9 that Huang told him he had no idea the woman was a spy, and Trump believed him. The FBI is investigating, and Nvidia's board will decide Huang's future.
