Alice Huang accused in Nvidia chip smuggling, spy scandal

Korean outlets report that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted an affair with Alice Huang, a businesswoman suspected of working as a spy for the Chinese government and linked to a Singapore-based company the U.S. suspects of smuggling AI microchips into China. KBS World says Nvidia's board issued a statement on Sunday, and Korea Times reports U.S. intelligence officials accused Alice Huang of spying for Beijing. China's foreign ministry called the "so-called Chinese spy narrative" unsubstantiated. Korean coverage frames this as a national security concern for the U.S., with Business Korea noting adverse effects on tech curbs and Korea Times reporting Nvidia shares slid Monday amid an internal probe into whether Huang was targeted by foreign intelligence.
