NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, on Sunday, admitted that he had been unfaithful to his wife and took “full responsibility” for his actions, as the technology giant launched an independent investigation into reports linking him to an alleged Chinese spy.“I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry,” Huang wrote in a message to employees, according to The Washington Post.Last month, The New York Times reported that Huang had a relationship with Alice Huang, an unrelated former executive of Singapore-based company Megaspeed, who US authorities investigated and concluded was a Chinese intelligence asset.“I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it,” Huang wrote.Nvidia said that during the ongoing investigation into the matter, Huang will continue to remain the CEO.“Today’s news will not slow NVIDIA.
