The leather-jacketed CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, has acknowledged an affair with Megaspeed exec Alice Huang, spurring an investigation by his company and intense discussions worldwide. Recent reporting noted that since last year, US intelligence reports had identified Alice Huang (no relation) as not only the exec for an AI compute company renting access to Nvidia GPUs, but also a spy for China’s Ministry of State Security.
In recent years, Nvidia has become a key part of the Trump administration’s AI push, a central figure in negotiations over potential Chinese access to cutting-edge AI hardware, and a company that has used its now $4 trillion-plus market cap to finance other AI companies, including the “neoclouds” like Coreweave who have been some of its biggest customers. So far, Nvidia and Jensen Huang have said that they have “no reason to believe that either national security or NVIDIA secrets were compromised,” but that hasn’t settled things as the investigation continues.

Our girl Alice is also an alleged honeypot who was recruited by the Chinese Ministry of State Security. (China is denying all this, btw.)
