A bystander who recorded a seemingly affectionate encounter between Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and senior executive Kimberly Powell at a California hotel during the chipmaker's annual developer conference in March was asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) by Huang's private security personnel, according to The New York Times. The incident occurred in San Jose, where Nvidia was hosting its GTC conference, which brings together developers, researchers, business leaders, and engineers. Powell, who is married, is currently the vice president of healthcare at Nvidia and spoke about artificial intelligence's role in accelerating healthcare and biology during the conference. The encounter between Huang and Powell reportedly took place while they were holding meetings at a nearby hotel.
According to The New York Times, one person at the hotel captured the interaction on their mobile phone, which was noticed by Huang's security personnel. They then asked the bystander to sign an NDA barring them from disclosing what they had witnessed. The episode adds another layer of scrutiny to Huang's admission of his affair with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, who is suspected of being a Chinese spy by American intelligence.
Since Jensen Huang confessed to his affair with Alice Huang via an email to company employees on November 8, Nvidia has reportedly lost nearly $600 billion in market value. According to The Wall Street Journal, the company's board is planning to remove him and appoint a new CEO. However, both Jensen Huang, Kimberly Powell, and Nvidia declined to comment on the matter.
