A potential Chinese espionage operation involving one of America’s most powerful technology executives is raising serious national security concerns in Washington.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, whose company sits at the center of America’s artificial intelligence revolution, is facing mounting scrutiny following explosive reports that he had a relationship with Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed who U.S. intelligence officials reportedly identified as a Chinese intelligence asset.
The allegations have triggered an extraordinary response from Capitol Hill, with three Republican committee chairmen demanding that Huang answer questions about his interactions with the woman and whether Beijing may have gained access to sensitive information through their relationship.
And the implications could reach far beyond Nvidia.
