Three House committee chairs have asked Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang to attend a joint closed-door briefing on 18 Nov. The request follows reports that Alice Huang, an executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, was recruited by China's Ministry of State Security to gather information on U.S. AI chips. The reports say she had a close relationship with Jensen Huang, who is not related to her. Nvidia rejected the claims, saying Jensen Huang meets thousands of customers each year. Nvidia has not confirmed whether he will attend.

Nvidia says it found no basis for a New York Times report that Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, a former senior executive at Singapore-based data centre firm Megaspeed, passed information to Chinese intelligence and had ties to CEO Jensen Huang. The report says U.S. intelligence monitored her over suspected diversion of advanced AI chips to China and that President Donald Trump was briefed about a year ago but chose not to act. China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun dismissed the report as groundless speculation. Trump said on 31 Oct that the United States is examining the matter and that he would keep Huang as an adviser unless evidence suggests otherwise.
