The Chinese woman at the center of a spy investigation following her relationship with Jensen Huang

Alice Huang, a former TV reporter in China, transitioned to finance and later joined Megaspeed International, which is under investigation by the U.S. for potentially facilitating the covert transfer of advanced AI chips to China. U.S. officials suspect she may have been relaying information to the Chinese government, prompting Nvidia to investigate possible espionage targeting its CEO, Jensen Huang. Megaspeed, which emerged from a Chinese gaming company, acts as a global intermediary for AI hardware, with Alibaba as a key client. Despite ongoing investigations, Megaspeed claims to adhere to legal and ethical standards. Jensen Huang advocates for easing chip export restrictions to China, arguing it would maintain U.S. semiconductor dominance.
