> Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has acknowledged an affair and is being investigated by the company’s board. The New York Times reported that US intelligence officials believe the Chinese businesswoman identified as Alice Huang, who was close to Huang, is a Chinese spy. Nvidia said it has no reason to believe national security or confidential company data was compromised, but will investigate the allegations while Huang remains in his post. Donald Trump called Huang a good person, while China’s foreign ministry dismissed the spy claim as baseless smearing. The story emerged ahead of a meeting between US and Chinese leaders at APEC, with lawmakers from both parties calling for a probe.
