“I failed in this obligation”: NVIDIA launches investigation amid reports of Jensen Huang’s close relationship with alleged spy
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
The NVIDIA boss will retain his post for now.
Recently, reports began appearing in the media regarding a possible attempt by China to influence NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang. It was reported at the time that Alice Huang (a coincidental last name) might be working for Chinese intelligence.
NVIDIA responded, and the board of directors announced the launch of an independent investigation:
The NVIDIA board of directors is initiating an independent investigation in light of recent reports that the company’s founder and CEO, Jensen Huang, was the target of foreign intelligence. The investigation will be overseen by a committee of independent directors with the assistance of independent outside legal counsel.
At present, the board has “no reason to believe that national security was compromised or that NVIDIA secrets were disclosed.” According to them, Jensen Huang fully supports the investigation and has pledged his cooperation.
Jensen Huang himself also wrote a letter to employees in which he confirmed being unfaithful to his wife. He apologized to his family and acknowledged his mistake:
Leading NVIDIA is the greatest honor of my life. My duty is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I failed in this obligation. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your trust.
