What could China get from Jensen Huang?
The Verge reports that US officials believe Alice Huang, an executive at Singapore-based cloud provider Megaspeed and a top Nvidia customer, is a foreign intelligence asset who allegedly had an extramarital affair with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, raising questions about whether the relationship influenced his lobbying to loosen US chip export controls on China. Nvidia said it has "no reason to believe that either national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised," and its board has launched an independent investigation while Huang remains CEO. The piece details Huang's lobbying timeline, including a July 2025 Oval Office meeting and a later decision allowing H20 chip sales to approved Chinese customers with a 25 percent government cut.
