## Summary

A New York Times report says US Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned President Donald Trump about security concerns involving Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang. Despite the warning, Trump invited Huang aboard Air Force One to attend a Beijing summit in May, putting questions about political judgement and technology-sector security in the spotlight.

The report comes ahead of Trump’s planned China trip next week, as scrutiny grows over Nvidia’s relationship with the White House. The article raises questions about whether the alleged liaison could lead to closer oversight of technology companies, politicians and corporate boards, and affect US-China relations and competition in artificial intelligence.
