Republican senators publicly demand Jensen Huang resign, and Trump's former economic adviser also calls out: step down immediately.

Beating AI News Flash, November 10 — U.S. Republican Senator Kevin Cramer, in an interview with POLITICO, publicly called for Jensen Huang to resign as CEO of Nvidia. He believes that Huang's extramarital affair poses a serious potential blackmail risk, especially given that Nvidia controls highly sensitive AI chip technology.

Cramer stated bluntly: "The risk of being blackmailed is simply too great. I think he must go."

Cramer is a member of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee. The committee is reviewing multiple bills to strengthen export controls on advanced AI chips. He believes that while an internal investigation by Nvidia's board of directors is acceptable, it is "far from enough."

Earlier that day, Larry Kudlow, director of the White House National Economic Council during Trump's first term, also publicly called out on Fox Business: "Mr. Huang, resign now." He believes this is the reasonable action Huang should currently take.

As the controversy expands, U.S. congressional scrutiny of Nvidia's chip exports is also accelerating. The three bills under consideration by the Senate Banking Committee involve strengthening approval for advanced chip exports, tracking chip destinations, and restricting exports of certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment. These bills are seeking to be included in the annual National Defense Authorization Act and have not yet all been passed.
