## Summary

The latest coverage highlights bipartisan calls in Washington for scrutiny of Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang’s reported affair with Alice Huang, whom US intelligence officials reportedly concluded had spied for China. The Justice Department is investigating possible export-control violations involving Megaspeed, while Nvidia carries out an internal review.

Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based cloud company Megaspeed, is linked to allegations that the company routed advanced Nvidia chips to Chinese users and evaded US export rules; Megaspeed has denied the claims. Nvidia’s board says it has no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised, and Huang will remain in charge while co-operating with the investigation. Beijing has called the spy allegation unsubstantiated.
