“It is somehow appropriate, given how artificial intelligence has enabled the greatest explosion of scams and frauds in history, that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was reportedly entrapped by a good old-fashioned honeypot. On October 29, The New York Times reported that, according to American intelligence agencies, Huang had been having an affair with a Chinese national, Alice Huang (no relation), who had been passing information to the Chinese government. Then on November 6, the Times reported that Huang was a straight-up spy, a Ministry of State Security asset. Two days later, the Nvidia board started an investigation. As of this writing, Huang has vowed not to step down, and has admitted only to cheating on his wife. Nvidia shares have fallen off, down about 17 percent since earlier in the month at time of writing.” (11/10/26)
