Nvidia's board has announced an independent investigation into reports that CEO Jensen Huang was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation. According to Just the News, the investigation will be conducted by an independent committee assisted by outside legal counsel.
Jensen Huang has admitted to having an affair, stating in a memo to Nvidia staff that he was unfaithful to his wife, as reported by ZeroHedge. The admission comes after the Financial Times reported that US intelligence believes Huang had a romantic relationship with alleged Chinese spy Alice Huang.
Huang expressed remorse for his actions, saying they hurt his wife and children, and stated that he is fully cooperating with the investigation, as noted by Bloomberg. He also emphasized his commitment to protecting Nvidia and supporting America's national security.
The investigation into the alleged foreign intelligence effort is ongoing.
