US Intelligence Identifies Chinese Spy Allegedly Linked to Nvidia CEO; Trump Briefed but Took No Action
US intelligence agencies identified Alice Huang, a Chinese executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, as a suspected Chinese intelligence asset passing information to Beijing. Surveillance revealed she had a close relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, raising concerns about potential access to sensitive AI technology and US policy insights. President Donald Trump was briefed on the findings about a year ago but chose not to act, citing concerns over disrupting Nvidia's chip sales and US-China trade relations. Nvidia has denied any unusual interactions or sharing of sensitive information, and investigations into chip diversion allegations were reportedly debunked.
