AI chipmaker Nvidia opened an investigation into CEO Jensen Huang after he admitted having an extramarital affair with a Singapore-based tech executive whom U.S. intelligence officials suspect of spying for China.

The report alleged Huang may have been the target of a foreign espionage operation. Nvidia launched its probe into Huang, a dual U.S.-Taiwanese national, after he acknowledged being "unfaithful" to his wife with a Chinese businesswoman. He apologized to his family. Huang’s admission followed a New York Times report that alleged he had a romantic relationship with a woman named Alice Huang. (They are not related.)

She was allegedly recruited by China’s Ministry of State Security, Beijing’s top spy agency, as part of an effort to collect information about America’s AI chips. Washington has restricted exports of its most advanced AI processors to China over national security concerns. Alice Huang is a former executive of a Singapore-based company named Megaspeed. U.S. authorities investigated and concluded Megaspeed, which buys AI chips from Nvidia, was a Chinese intelligence asset. The firm’s board said in a statement it had "no reason to believe that either national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised." Huang will remain Nvidia’s CEO for now.
