Senator Warren Statement on Reports that NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Seen as Target of Chinese Spy Plot

Washington, D.C. - United States Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, released the following statement:

"For months, bipartisan members of Congress have raised concerns about NVIDIA's advanced AI chips going to China. In June, I called on NVIDIA's board to investigate the company's compliance with U.S. export control laws. Today, new reporting indicates that NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang was seen as a "target" of a suspected Chinese spy, and sold her Singapore-based company - Megaspeed - at least $4.8 billion worth of advanced AI chips. NVIDIA's Jensen Huang and NVIDIA's board owe Congress answers. And we need to pass bipartisan legislation we have ready to stop advanced American technology from going to China."
