FBI looking into Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's affair with Chinese agent, says Trump

FBI looking into Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's affair with Chinese agent, says Trump

What's behind this

Alice Huang, a former Chinese banker who later took a leadership role at a Singapore data‑centre firm, is reported to have had an affair with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. The relationship has drawn attention after allegations that she used the connection to divert about $7.5 billion worth of Nvidia chips – roughly 240,000 H100 and H200 processors – to China. Separate records show a Chinese university linked to the PLA purchased two H200 AI chips, valued at $123,000, despite being on a U.S. export blacklist. The affair has sparked concern in both technology and political circles.
