Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns from his position

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of artificial intelligence chips, has resigned from his position.

TodayPress TV reports, citing “The Wall Street Journal”, that following Huang’s resignation, the company’s Chief Financial Officer, Colette Kress, has been appointed interim CEO.

Huang’s resignation comes after controversial allegations surrounding him emerged in recent days. Reports have circulated claiming that he was involved in a relationship with a Chinese businesswoman suspected by US authorities of spying for Beijing. In addition, he has allegedly had an extramarital relationship with a senior company employee who reported directly to him.

According to the report, Nvidia’s board of directors held a meeting on Wednesday to discuss the possibility of removing Huang from his position.

Huang’s departure has created uncertainty about the future of the company, which has a market value of $4 trillion. He played a key role in Nvidia’s rise to a leading position in the artificial intelligence industry, directing the company’s growing financial resources towards cloud technologies, suppliers and AI laboratories.

His resignation could also affect US chip export policy. Huang has consistently advocated preserving access to the Chinese market and has attracted attention for his close relationship with US President Donald Trump.

It should be noted that Huang led Nvidia for 33 years.
