The New York Times says Trump was briefed about a year ago and Jensen Huang was not warned; Nvidia denies any sensitive leak.

The New York Times reports US intelligence believes Alice Huang of Singapore-based Megaspeed, described as close to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, passes information to Beijing. Officials say President Trump was briefed about a year ago and Huang was not warned because they believed he did not know. Authorities also suspect Megaspeed helped China obtain Nvidia chips; a Malaysian sister company bought at least $4.8 billion of AI hardware containing Nvidia chips between June 2024 and February 2026. Nvidia says customer meetings are routine and Megaspeed receives no sensitive information. Megaspeed announced an internal review, and China’s embassy called the claims groundless.

Unconfirmed: The account is based on US intelligence assessments reported by The New York Times and is denied by China’s embassy.
