INTEL: Trump reportedly briefed on Chinese spy plot targeting Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang
US officials reportedly believe Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was the target of a Chinese spy plot, and that Megaspeed executive Alice Huang, seen at his side in Taiwan, is a Chinese intelligence asset. President Donald Trump has been briefed on the matter, according to the reports.
The claims rest on unnamed US officials and have not been confirmed by any government body. The reports describe Alice Huang as having “close ties” to Jensen Huang and as passing information to Beijing. The reports reviewed contain no response from Nvidia, Megaspeed, Alice Huang or the White House.
One unverified account says Trump took no action after the briefing. The other reports reviewed do not confirm that detail.
Warren demands answers from Nvidia
Senator Elizabeth Warren responded by saying Jensen Huang was reportedly “targeted” by a suspected Chinese spy whose Singapore-based firm bought billions of dollars in AI chips. She said Huang and Nvidia’s board “owe Congress answers.” She also called for bipartisan legislation to keep advanced US AI technology out of China.
The reports do not say what information was allegedly passed on, how long the relationship lasted, or whether any investigation or charges are under way. The allegation that Alice Huang is a spy has not been tested in court or confirmed by an official statement.
