US intelligence officials have reportedly suspected her of links to Chinese intelligence, an allegation Beijing has denied.The other alleged relationship was with Powell, who headed Nvidia’s healthcare business and was among Huang’s direct reports, according to media reports.Huang had earlier admitted to having an affair in a November 8 statement issued after reports emerged about his relationship with Alice Huang. He did not name the woman in his statement.The relationship with Alice Huang has drawn particular scrutiny because of her previous role at Megaspeed, a Singapore-based cloud computing company that had access to Nvidia chips. US authorities have reportedly investigated the company over concerns that restricted AI technology could have reached China through third countries.Nvidia names interim CEOHuang, 63, was not only Nvidia’s chief executive but also one of its largest shareholders, holding a 3.61% stake. He will also leave the company’s board as part of his departure.Nvidia has named chief financial officer Colette Kress as interim CEO while the board searches for a permanent successor.
