Reuters: The former head of Nvidia had an affair with another employee of the company

According to Reuters, the disclosure concerns another relationship between the former head of Nvidia and a female employee of the company. Reuters did not reveal the woman's identity, and attempts to obtain comment from her were unsuccessful.

The agency reminds that Jensen Huang's resignation took place on Thursday after earlier reports of two extramarital relations. The women mentioned included Alice Huang (suspected of being a Chinese spy) and Kimberly Powell, vice president of Nvidia responsible for the health care sector.

Jensen Huang, a 63-year-old manager who is married, admitted in a Nov. 8 statement that he had an affair. However, he did not indicate the woman's name in the message.

Nvidia declined to comment on Reuters' latest findings. Kimberly Powell, Jensen Huang and a representative of the company's supervisory board also did not respond to requests for a position.

Supervisory board investigation

At the beginning of the month, Nvidia's board began an internal investigation. They are conducted by independent board members with the support of external lawyers. The case concerned, among others, determine whether Huang may have been the target of a foreign intelligence operation.

Previously, the council declared its trust in the then president. After his resignation, the duties of CEO were temporarily taken over by CFO Colette Kress. The company began the search for a permanent successor, considering candidates from both inside and outside the organization.

Huang's departure may have implications for the artificial intelligence market, of which Nvidia is one of the key players. The company uses its financial position to support the development of the AI ​​ecosystem, including: through investments in cloud companies and laboratories developing this technology, which are also recipients of its systems.
