Jensen Huang resigned as chief executive of Nvidia on Thursday, ending his 33-year run at the helm of the AI giant he co-founded after revelations that he had two extramarital affairs, including with a woman accused of spying for China.
The company’s board said Huang had stepped down as president, chief executive and board member, effective immediately.
Chief financial officer Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO while keeping her finance role, and the board will consider internal and external candidates for a permanent replacement.
The decision came after the company’s board met to decide whether to oust Huang, a source familiar with the matter had told Reuters, as the world’s dominant supplier of AI processors grapples with reports of two extramarital affairs involving its longtime leader.
