Jensen Huang's Third Alleged Relationship Surfaces, Reuters Reports
Additional allegations have emerged regarding former Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang's involvement with yet another employee at the chip manufacturing company, according to a new Reuters report published after his departure from the CEO position.
A third alleged extramarital relationship involving former Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang and another employee at the semiconductor company has been disclosed by Reuters, adding to the growing number of reported affairs.
According to the Reuters report, which cited information from two sources with knowledge of the situation, this revelation comes on the heels of Huang stepping down from his positions as Nvidia's CEO and as a member of the company's board of directors on Thursday. The identity of the additional employee referenced in the Reuters report was not disclosed, and the news agency indicated that efforts to contact her were not successful.
The pair of relationships that had been previously made public concerned Alice Huang, who is believed by US intelligence authorities to potentially be working on behalf of Chinese intelligence services, and Kimberly Powell, who holds the position of vice president of health care at Nvidia.
Cointelegraph reached out to Nvidia for comment.
During a press conference held on Thursday, US Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the Justice Department had not yet reached a conclusion regarding whether Alice Huang was operating as a Chinese intelligence operative. He acknowledged that the FBI was actively investigating claims that she had been working for the government of China. The Chinese government in Beijing has issued denials of these allegations.
Stock prices for Nvidia experienced a sharp decline of more than 13% in the period immediately following the opening of trading on the US stock market Thursday, with shares changing hands at $151.00 at 2:31 p.m. UTC, based on data from Yahoo Finance.
Venture capitalist Haseeb Qureshi contended that the increasing number of revelations had damaged Huang's trustworthiness and credibility, offering a counterargument to technology industry personalities who have come to the defense of the Nvidia co-founder.
