All week the world has been watching the social and political turmoil surrounding Jensen Huang, the former head of Nvidia, and every time it seemed like it couldn't get any worse, it did. The story, which began as an espionage detective story after new details about Huang's affairs with Nvidia employees, has turned into a corporate drama, and now risks becoming a legal drama.
The American Department of Justice is already conducting several investigations against the company: one of them may be related to suspicions of violating antitrust laws, two others may be related to the possible illegal supply of Nvidia chips to China through Mega Speed and equipment from the American Super Micro (the company to which Alice Huang, who is suspected of spying by American intelligence), is related.
In the new issue of the technology newsletter, we look at how history unfolded, which could accelerate the redistribution of the entire AI market. How likely are the versions about a Chinese spy, what evidence is there, what do they think about it in Washington, and why did Nvidia give reasons to doubt its stability even before the scandal?
