BREAKING: 🇺🇸🇨🇳 A Chinese businesswoman who had a close relationship with Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen Huang, was found to be passing intelligence to Beijing, per the NYT According to the Times, which cites people briefed on classified U.S. intelligence (speaking anonymously), American spy agencies concluded that Alice Huang (also known as Huang Le), a Chinese citizen and former top executive at the Singapore-based AI cloud/data-center firm Megaspeed, was a Chinese intelligence asset funneling information to Beijing.⁠ Surveillance showed she had developed a close professional and social relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang (they are not related). They were photographed together at events, including at a Taipei bar in June 2024 and at a business dinner in 2025. U.S. officials were already scrutinizing Megaspeed over suspicions it was helping Chinese companies obtain or access restricted advanced Nvidia AI chips (for example, by buying chips and providing cloud compute to firms such as Alibaba). The discovery of her access to Jensen Huang raised further concerns about potential insights into Nvidia’s plans and, given his close advisory role with President Trump on AI and chip policy, into U.S. thinking.⁠Ars Technica Trump was briefed on the intelligence roughly a year ago and took no action, reportedly out of concern about disrupting Nvidia’s chip sales (important to the stock market and economy) and further complicating U.S.-China relations.
