Jensen Huang ’92 admits to affair with alleged Chinese spy

Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun “Jensen” Huang M.S. ’92 admitted on Sunday to having an extramarital affair with a partner company executive who is a Chinese spy, according to American intelligence. In response, the Nvidia board has opened an independent investigation and stated that Jensen Huang will retain his leadership role. Jensen Huang and Nvidia have closely collaborated with Stanford in the past. In 2010, the Jen-Hsun Huang Engineering Center was dedicated to Jensen Huang after he and his wife donated $30 million toward its construction. Two years ago, Nvidia partnered with Stanford to create the Marlowe supercomputer cluster for University researchers. Earlier this year, the Marlowe-Nvidia joint initiative began connecting Stanford researchers with Nvidia research teams and solutions architects via private guidance sessions. The Daily has reached out to the University for comment.
