Image caption, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has become the face of the US AI boom. Nvidia has hired New York law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate the affair between its chief executive and an alleged Chinese spy. Jensen Huang, a co-founder of Nvidia who has led it to become one of the most valuable companies in the world, admitted to having a romantic relationship with a woman outside of his marriage. The woman, Alice Huang, is alleged to be a spy for Beijing. She is an executive at a Singaporean company Megaspeed, which has been a customer of Nvidia. Nvidia said on Tuesday that Wachtell attorney Joon Kim was set to lead a thorough and independent investigation into Jensen Huang's affair.

Jensen Huang's affair with a Chinese businesswoman whom U.S. officials believe to be a spy could, as others have pointed out, turn out to be the costliest extramarital dalliance of all time. After the reported on Huang's relationship with the woman--Alice Huang, or Huang Le, an executive at a Singapore-based tech firm called Megaspeed International--he confessed over the weekend that he had been "unfaithful." By Tuesday afternoon, Nvidia's stock had tumbled by more than ten per cent, and Huang's stake in the chip company had lost more than seventeen billion dollars of its value.

Anthropic is seeking a valuation of $1.4 trillion for its upcoming IPO, with the company looking to raise as much as $64.4bn in what would be one of the largest stock market debuts in history. The company, which makes the Claude AI chatbot, launched its investor roadshow on Tuesday, with reported plans to go public next week. It has also secured $26bn in a separate private placement backed by some of the world's largest tech companies, including Google, Nvidia, Microsoft and AMD. The listing is being closely watched as a major test for how much investors are still willing to bet on AI companies, which have driven huge gains in tech stocks and the broader US market. The $1.4 trillion valuation is lower than earlier estimates, which had suggested Anthropic could be valued between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion, as concerns grow about the company's enormous infrastructure spending and recent swings in AI stock prices.

Jensen Huang's Troubles Leave the AI Industry Reeling With a big checkbook and sought-after chips, Nvidia's CEO had his thumb on the world of AI.
