Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigned Thursday after his extramarital affair raised national security concerns, in a spectacular downfall for the longtime head of the chipmaker, a vital player in the artificial intelligence boom.
Huang faced growing calls to resign after his affair with a Chinese businesswoman who reportedly was also acting as a spy for Beijing. His troubles compounded late Wednesday after media reports said Huang had another extramarital affair with an Nvidia employee who reported to him.
The ouster sets off a scramble to find a permanent replacement to lead Nvidia, which did not have a succession plan. The board will consider candidates from both inside and outside the company, the company said in a statement. (article continues at link)

Commence the Huang jokes. I think he pull out too soon.
Well someone got fingered real good!
Just like Swallwell — get laid by selling out your business/country.
follow the money, who sold just before this info came out...
I wonder if she got the Cashmere sweater.
from the article...
The company named Colette Kress, the executive vice president and chief financial officer, as interim chief executive. She became CFO in 2013, overseeing the company’s global finance operations. Before that, she worked for three years at Cisco and spent 13 years at Microsoft.
In a statement Thursday, Kress said that Nvidia’s “strength has always come from its people” and that she was “committed to building on the extraordinary foundation Jensen created over the last 33 years.”
The board of directors said Thursday it had also named its first-ever chairman, Harvey C. Jones, an entrepreneur and venture investor.
Shares of Nvidia tumbled 14% at the opening bell Thursday, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq slid 1.5%. The company is due to report earnings on Tuesday.
These idiot men really think they still got it.
The next in charge will be a chick and she’ll run it into the ground.
Stock price is already up about $10 since open this morning. Someone wanted to get paid, see who cashed out right before his admission of the affairs.
Nvidia’s board of directors removed Jensen Huang as chief executive on Thursday, just three days after giving him a vote of confidence and less than a month after a national security scandal and an affair allegation began tearing through the company he founded in 1993.
The Nvidia board reached its decision after an hours-long meeting Wednesday at the roughly $4 trillion company. It capped a remarkable stretch even by the standards of a tech industry that has watched Nvidia become the linchpin of the artificial intelligence boom. Huang had been fighting to keep his job since October 29, when the media reported on a “close relationship” between him and a woman named Alice Huang, a Chinese citizen and executive at Megaspeed, the largest buyer of Nvidia chips in Southeast Asia, who U.S. intelligence suspects of spying for Beijing.
The company announced that CFO Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO as it searches for a permanent replacement:
Colette Kress, current Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NVIDIA, has agreed to serve as Interim Chief Executive Officer. Kress will continue to serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer while serving as Interim Chief Executive Officer until a permanent successor has been named. The Board is initiating a search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer and will consider internal and external candidates.
Kress has served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NVIDIA since joining the company in September 2013. During her tenure, she has led the company’s finance organization and has played a key role in NVIDIA’s growth and evolution. Prior to joining NVIDIA, Kress spent nearly 25 years in finance roles at leading technology companies, including Cisco and Microsoft.
The Board of Directors appointed Harvey C. Jones as its first-ever Chair of the Board. Mr. Jones has been an entrepreneur, technology executive, and active venture investor for over 30 years, including serving as Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of Synopsys.
I wonder why the HoneyPotters are never Trans ?
Why shouldn’t boys be allowed to play ?
Everybody Huang Chung tonight.
Aw, heck, give the poor guy a break. He just let his huang get the better of him. It happens to all of us at one time or another!
He wasn’t guilty of espionage, he was guilty of two things:
Male Stupidity:
He could be forgiven for thinking she was after him for his money and not his technology...because he isn’t an ignoramus like Swalwell whose only currency was national security secrets. Rich guys like him get women coming on to them all the time, while dummies like Swalwell are too dim to realize that it isn’t his good looks that brought an attractive Chinese sexpot to his doorstep.
Association with Trump:
There is no forgiving this one by the people who want to bring him down. He is a target, and just because he happened to be rich and famous should not let anyone associated with Trump at any level forget that they too will be subjected to persecution. There is no peon who supported Trump that is too small to come to the attention of a Leftist government for persecution.
And the Left has made it clear they are going directly for people like this. I am no huge fan of the guy. But people who think this is fine and dandy are playing right into the hands of people who want to destroy this country.
And we have a significant population of them on this forum.
LOL!
Meanwhile Elon Musk mounts anything with a pulse.
Wild guess, he'll end up at either AMD or TSMC.
