Nvidia CEO Huang admits affair, spy probe launched

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has admitted to an extramarital affair with Alice Huang, a businesswoman suspected of working as a Chinese spy, and the company's board has opened an independent probe into whether he was the target of a foreign intelligence effort, KBS World and Korea Times report. China's foreign ministry dismissed the "so-called Chinese spy narrative" as unsubstantiated, while U.S. House Republicans have requested a closed-door briefing with Huang. In Korea, industry officials worry the controversy could affect Nvidia's local AI partnerships, and Huang's eldest daughter Madison abruptly canceled a planned visit to South Korea, KBS World reports. Korean media have also resurfaced Huang's past TV comments about his wife amid the scandal, Korea Times notes.
