Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has resigned from his position following reports of multiple affairs, including a third relationship with another Nvidia employee. The company's Chief Financial Officer, Colette Kress, has been appointed as the interim CEO.
The resignation comes after a tumultuous week for the chip giant, which has seen its stock price tumble amidst the unfolding scandal. Reports initially surfaced of an affair with a suspected Chinese spy, followed by allegations of another relationship with a direct report. The emergence of a third affair with an Nvidia employee further intensifies the situation.
Huang's departure marks the end of an era for Nvidia, where he has been a prominent figurehead, particularly during the recent boom in artificial intelligence. The company now faces the challenge of navigating this leadership transition while addressing the fallout from the personal conduct allegations against its former CEO.
