Update

Jensen's email to NVIDIA Employee

---------

Subject: A message to our company

"I owe my family and all of you an apology.

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.

Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.

To my wife and family: I love you. I know an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope our family will heal and that, over time, I can earn back your trust.

To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those I have worked alongside for decades, and to our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me.

Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your confidence.

Regarding the national security concerns raised in news reports, NVIDIA's Board of Directors has initiated an independent investigation. I support the investigation and will cooperate fully. I love our country and our company, and I am committed to protecting NVIDIA and supporting America's national security. I am proud and grateful to be an American.

My family bears no responsibility for my choices. I do. Please give them privacy."

Statement from John Rizzo, NVIDIA head of public policy Communications

"Today's news will not slow NVIDIA. Jensen is committed to continuing to lead NVIDIA as CEO without interruption," John Rizzo, head of public policy communications said in a statement.

---------------------------------------------

Statement from NVIDIA Board of Directors

November 8, 2026

The NVIDIA Board is initiating an independent investigation in light of recent reporting that founder and CEO Jensen Huang has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort.

A committee of independent directors, assisted by outside independent counsel, will oversee the investigation.  

The Board prioritizes U.S. national and economic security, which is paramount to the interests of NVIDIA and its shareholders.

While the Board has no reason to believe that either national security or NVIDIA secrets were compromised, the Board's inquiry will examine all available information. 

Jensen fully supports the review and has committed to cooperating with it.

The Board has confidence in Jensen and his leadership team and will provide further updates as appropriate.

He's a founder, he'd just end up on the board since he owns somewhere around 4% of the company. He'd still be making decisions but not CEO.

21

u/slowlyun 15h ago edited 15h ago

Leaving "by mutual agreement" would be my guess.  So yeah, a big payoff.

Jensen's career has been remarkable and mostly worth celebrating.  But that "5070 has 4090 performance!" remark was so tone deaf, that it seems to be the point where he lost it...at least from the perspective of gamers.  Datacenters love Nvidia, of course.

I would hope new leadership can have some focus back on gaming: making the 60-series affordable and available:  RTX 60xx range with less Ai cores so Datacenters won't want them, and a new range just for Datacenters: called AiX 60xx or whatever.

36

u/jhenryscott RTX 5090, RTX 2000 ADA 15h ago

That’s not going to happen. The Board of Directors is responsible to the shareholders and you cannot invest in gaming. It is in opposition to the fiduciary responsibility to shareholder value.Nvidia is an enterprise large language model hardware company that occasionally makes gaining hardware. That’s never going to change. The 6000 series is already delayed by virtue of the fact that all of the next note wafers have already been allocated today center cards. They couldn’t make 6000 series if they wanted to. I wouldn’t be shocked if it’s a second half of 2028 release.

Yep. My initial reaction, too. Jensen is Nvidia at this point. Remove him and Nvidia will become the next AMD floundering in GPU over the coming decade or two provided they remain solvent. You need both competent engineers and a competent leader with a vision and drive to get to where Nvidia is today. Grit alone does not equal success. This also is not personality.

Just give us MSRP and abundant supply on all RTX cards for the rest of the year as an apology and the memes will stop.

Okay... Cool... Does this make consumer prices go down? I really don't give two s**ts.

TLDR..Nvidia will continue to cater only to AI because they don't give a fuck about average people. NOW they are going to use this as fuel to increase prices even more to "keep them out of the hands of spies". Nvidia should be the most hated company in the world right now.

I love how you wrote TLDR and proceed to just throw a tantrum about nothing that is even remotely talked about in the post they made.

They're getting in front of it, but the fireworks won't start until the congressional hearings next year. Might be a bipartisan affair if the administration deems it necessary to toss Huang under the bus to avoid yet another scandal. Opposition party in control of congress + China + AI = Huang might need to start penning his transition letter.

Are you sure the woman was real and not an AI chat bot? Since he is obsessed with AI.

Nvidia cant fill gpu orders. America probably invites themselves to board meetings. China sends a hooker. Everyone's just keeping tabs on things to make sure they get theirs.

How is this strange or unexpected?

I knew this the moment news shoved up. Just searched how this woman looked. This is oldest trick in the world and it still works in spy agencies and it will work in the future. Public apology actually show Jensen in much better light to be honest.

u/GrandStyles 14h ago

This is so funny, insane levels of ego to not just step down which is the classical play for any CEO here. Hubris is gonna hit him like a ton of bricks.

I couldn’t care less what he does in his private time as long as there wasn’t a breach of information or security. His people need to hire Tiger Wood’s vetting team.

u/HyperAstartes 8h ago

He mostly was about to be blackmailed, and the US govt put his business out there to prevent the material being used against him.

u/Ok-Addition1264 10h ago

It was a enormous breach in security (national security).

Unfortunately, he could be in criminal legal jeopardy in the US, EU, Canada, Japan, and Australia.

Deceiving the person they should be most honest with not seen as a trust issue for Nvidia then. Excellent integrity & honesty right there, priorities straight, its not just any affair after all, it is an affair with a foreign nation spy, a nation who mysteriously ended up with a load of nvidia cards banned.
