TechJensen Huang faces new affair allegation as Nvidia board reportedly weighs dismissal; chips reach China-linked university

The New York Times reported that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was alleged to have had a second extramarital relationship, with a senior company employee. Huang acknowledged two days earlier that he had dated Alice Huang, who is suspected of being a Chinese spy. Reports say Nvidia’s board is considering removing him, while the US Congress is preparing to subpoena him for a hearing. Nvidia shares fell as much as 9% in after-hours trading. Bloomberg said Alice Huang had returned to Beijing and that the Chinese government knew; Beijing denied she was a spy. Reuters reported that Northwestern Polytechnical University bought advanced Nvidia chips through a subsidiary and disclosed the purchase on its website, raising questions about US chip export controls on China.
