Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Acknowledges Affair With Woman US Officials Suspect of Chinese Spying
Photo: The HinduNvidia CEO Jensen Huang has acknowledged an extramarital affair with a woman whom U.S. officials reportedly suspect of working for Chinese intelligence. The woman has been reported as Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed. On Thursday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning accused Washington of fabricating spy narratives to justify a technological blockade. China said it was willing to implement a consensus reached by Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping, who are due to meet next week at the APEC gathering in Shenzhen. Two Democratic senators, Elizabeth Warren and Chris Coons, sent a letter Wednesday asking the administration to preserve Nvidia chip-export records. Shares reportedly fell about 7.5% in premarket trading as the board weighs Huang's future.
Right-leaning Fox Business led with the two Democratic senators' letter demanding the administration preserve Nvidia records. Newsmax instead focused on Chinese AI firms seeking to rent Nvidia-powered computing outside China, worried Washington could tighten access. The New York Times excerpt led with how the suspected spy gained access to Nvidia chips, citing new photos and ties to Huang dating to at least 2023. Alternative ZeroHedge and Al Jazeera center China's accusation of a technological blockade, with Al Jazeera quoting Mao Ning directly. All sides confirm the affair and the suspected Chinese link; they differ in emphasis, with the left on access and the right on oversight and market fallout.
