## Key points

- New reporting links Alice Huang to US intelligence suspicions of Chinese espionage.
- Nvidia is investigating her affair with CEO Jensen Huang.
- The company says it has no reason to believe secrets were compromised.

## Summary

New reporting says US intelligence reports had identified Alice Huang as a suspected Chinese spy before Nvidia began investigating her affair with chief executive Jensen Huang. The allegations have raised national security questions because Nvidia is central to US AI policy and discussions about China’s access to advanced computing hardware.

Alice Huang, who is not related to Jensen Huang, is an executive at Megaspeed, an AI computing company that rents access to Nvidia GPUs. Nvidia and Jensen Huang say they have no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised; the investigation is continuing. Nvidia’s market value is above $4 trillion, and it has financed AI companies, including “neocloud” providers that are among its major customers.
