Thanks to American oligarchy, Jensen Huang’s midlife crisis is a problem for all of us | Moira Donegan
Moira Donegan's Guardian column argues that Jensen Huang's admitted affair with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive she calls a suspected Chinese spy, shows how one man's flaws now carry outsized consequences for the US economy and national security because he runs Nvidia, a maker of the chips powering the AI boom. Citing the New York Times, she notes the commerce department's investigation into Megaspeed over suspected chip smuggling to China was abruptly halted after Nvidia's general counsel intervened; Nvidia's stock fell after Huang's statement, the company says it will investigate the affair, and she doubts the board's claim that no secrets were compromised.
