In a message to Nvidia employees, Huang admitted to being unfaithful to his wife and took "full responsibility" for his actions.

The New York Times reported last month that US authorities were investigating Alice Huang, a former executive of Singapore-based company Megaspeed, which buys AI chips from Nvidia. US authorities have scrutinised Megaspeed over suspicions it helped Beijing gain access to advanced AI chips that are barred from shipment to China.
