Read Huang’s full memo below:
Subject: A message to our company
I owe my family and all of you an apology.
I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.
Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.
To my wife and family: I love you. I know an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope our family will heal and that, over time, I can earn back your trust.
To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those I have worked alongside for decades, and to our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me.
Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your confidence.
Regarding the national security concerns raised in news reports, NVIDIA’s Board of Directors has initiated an independent investigation. I support the investigation and will cooperate fully. I love our country and our company, and I am committed to protecting NVIDIA and supporting America’s national security. I am proud and grateful to be an American.
My family bears no responsibility for my choices. I do. Please give them privacy.

JUST IN: NVIDIA $NVDA'S BOARD IS LAUNCHING AN INVESTIGATION INTO WHETHER CEO JENSEN HUANG WAS TARGETED BY A FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE EFFORT
The probe follows a memo to employees in which Huang admitted to an affair and said he was "deeply sorry," per Bloomberg.
A committee of independent directors, working with outside counsel, will oversee the investigation.
"While the board has no reason to believe that either national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised, the board's inquiry will examine all available information," the company said.
Huang said he is cooperating fully and will stay on as CEO while the investigation runs.
Nvidia has no public succession plan. It reports earnings later this month.
The company hit a record market cap of nearly $5.8 trillion in October. It has since slipped below $5 trillion.

not only did he fail to be the president of peace as he promised, but his first act as president until now were self-serving: from making billions with a presidential memecoin, to accepting large gifts from the UAE trillionaires, to making a farce out of presidential pardons, etc

The Binance hacker might have just pulled off one of the smartest moves I’ve seen in crypto.
First, Tether froze $1.5 billion in USDT.
Then Circle froze another $800 million in USDC.
At that point, it looked like the hacker’s money was trapped.
But apparently, he had already planned for that.
Instead of holding the stolen USDT in a wallet, he allegedly deposited it into Aave and used it as collateral to borrow ETH.
Then he walked away.
That’s where the story gets crazy.
Tether can freeze the USDT sitting in the wallet.
But it can’t freeze the ETH he already borrowed.
So now Aave is left holding frozen collateral, while the hacker is sitting on liquid ETH.
And unless the protocol can recover it somehow, he may not even need to pay the loan back.
Two companies froze billions of dollars in seconds.
But someone who understood how to use DeFi may have found a way around both of them.
Pretty insane when you think about it.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The described Aave deposit used only ~60M USDT as collateral to borrow 19,762 WETH before freezes hit the main wallet, not the bulk of funds; Aave states the overcollateralized position is subject to normal liquidation with no material protocol risk.

In the last 24 hours alone, I've seen.
1. iPhone 11 through 16 are apparently vulnerable to remote attacks.
2. SSL certificates are broken until browsers remove eMudhra CA.
3. PHP RCE (php2shell)
One is a leaked remote unlock capability for the most common phones on the planet.
One is a broken link in the certificate authority system that underpins the entire encrypted web and another is a core language vulnerability that affects a huge fraction of the internet’s servers.
This is the pace now.
AI does not have to "take over" for the environment to become unmanageable by traditional human processes. It only has to make discovery, weaponisation, and automation faster than the average organisation’s inventory, patching, and monitoring cycle.
If your plan was still "wait and see how AI plays out in security," I hope you have loyal religiously loyal customers and a hell of an insurance policy.
Inventory what you run (especially PHP and anything that trusts public CAs), prepare to patch at the speed these things now appear, and start treating AI-assisted detection and response as table stakes rather than a future project.
The window for comfortable observation is closed.
