AI chip boss Jensen Huang is under pressure to quit Nvidia after reports alleging he had an affair with a suspected Chinese spy. Huang has acknowledged an extra-marital relationship, while Nvidia and the FBI are investigating the claims. The scandal has wiped billions of dollars off the value of the chipmaker at the centre of the AI boom. President Donald Trump, who has a close relationship with Huang and recently allowed Nvidia to resume some high-end chip sales to China, is also facing questions about what he knew and when. The BBC's North America Technology Correspondent, Lily Jamali, has been to Nvidia's headquarters this week and shares her insights with Will Bain and Rahul Tandon.
