South Korea Confirms Nvidia GPU Deliveries Amid CEO Controversy and Export Scrutiny
South Korea expects contracted Nvidia GPU deliveries to continue without disruption despite controversy involving CEO Jensen Huang's personal ties to a businesswoman linked to Chinese intelligence. The South Korean government confirmed 10,000 GPUs funded for 2025 are in use, with 2026 supplies under contract. Nvidia's board launched an independent investigation but found no evidence of compromised US security. Meanwhile, South Korean chipmakers Samsung and SK hynix may face increased export scrutiny due to the situation, though US authorities have not imposed new restrictions.
