NVIDIA CEO and founder Jensen Huang is under fire for his connection with Chinese spies, raising risks for US national security. In a recent memo to employees, Huang admitted to being "unfaithful" to his wife and revealed that security concerns are being investigated by the company's board through an independent probe.
US officials reportedly believe Alice Huang, a former executive at a Singapore-based data centre company, was working as a Chinese intelligence asset. She was allegedly passing information to Beijing, and it was also found that she had developed a relationship with NVIDIA founder Jensen Huang.

I owe my family and all of you an apology.
I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.
Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.
To my wife and family: I love you. I know an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope our family will heal and that, over time, I can earn back your trust.
To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those I have worked alongside for decades, and to our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me. Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your confidence.
