Nvidia Looks Into CEO's Spy Scandal

Nvidia, the chip giant that powers most AI systems, is now dealing with a personal drama at the top. The company announced it will look into CEO Jensen Huang after he admitted a secret relationship. This news came after the board said it would examine all the facts.

Huang, who is 63 years old, told the board he was unfaithful to his wife and apologized for hurting his family. He said there is no excuse for his actions and promised to cooperate fully with the review. The board added that it sees no threat to national security or company secrets.

Before the scandal, Huang had built a close tie with a Chinese chip buyer named Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le. That buyer spent more than four billion dollars on Nvidia chips in the last two years and runs a data center firm called Megaspeed. Even after a separate probe began into possible chip smuggling, Nvidia kept doing business with Megaspeed.

Huang’s family is also part of the company. His son Spencer works in product management, his daughter Madison leads marketing, and his son‑in‑law Nico Caprez handles business development. He often credits his wife Lori for supporting his vision. He is known for wearing black leather jackets that have become collector items, and he was once invited onto Donald Trump’s Air Force One.
