Jensen Huang’s affair with alleged Chinese spy highlights how the GPU company’s dealings are now everyone’s business

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has admitted to an extramarital affair in a statement published on Nvidia's newsroom . A strange move for the $4.5 trillion company without the added context: the person he's suspected of having an affair with has also been deemed a Chinese intelligence asset by US officials, and was investigated for smuggling none other than Nvidia's own chips. The story goes far deeper than Huang's affair; revolving around national security, export controls, spying, chip smuggling, and US/China relations. It's in large part about AI, and who controls the hardware that makes it possible.
