Nvidia probes CEO Huang’s ‘Chinese spy’ fling as titan of AI revolution admits to affair

Nvidia, the American artificial intelligence chip giant, is launching an investigation into its chief executive, Jensen Huang, who has admitted to an affair with a woman identified in a series of reports as a suspected Chinese spy.

The revelation has raised troubling possibilities because Huang, 63, is one of the most powerful figures in the AI revolution as well as an influential ally of President Donald Trump, who has so far defended him.
