CNN: The U.S. intelligence community is still unable to confirm whether Alice Huang is a spy.

BlockBeats news, November 13, according to CNN, U.S. intelligence agencies are still investigating Alice Huang, the Chinese national and romantic partner of former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, and the intelligence gathered so far is insufficient to prove that she engaged in espionage. There are divisions within the U.S. intelligence community on this matter; some officials from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the CIA believe that directly labeling her as a spy is inaccurate, and the intercepted communications currently available cannot prove that she intended to pass information to a state-level entity.

However, some Trump administration officials believe that even if espionage cannot be confirmed, her close relationship with Jensen Huang and her ability to access Nvidia's core business still constitute a clear counterintelligence risk. U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche said on Thursday that the Department of Justice, himself, and the FBI director have not yet reached a conclusion. Trump also said whether Alice Huang is a spy has not yet been determined.

The investigation has also extended to Megaspeed, a Singapore company under Alice Huang. The company is a major buyer of Nvidia chips, and the U.S. Department of Justice and the Department of Commerce have been investigating it since 2024, suspecting it of being involved in transshipping restricted Nvidia chips to restricted regions through overseas shell companies. Within the White House, questions are still being raised about why the Department of Commerce did not place Megaspeed on the Entity List during the investigation.

CNN said the FBI has been investigating the relationship between Jensen Huang and Alice Huang for at least a year. U.S. intelligence agencies had obtained communications suspected of showing that people inside Nvidia provided information to Chinese intelligence channels, but it is not yet clear whether Alice Huang was involved. U.S. Representative Jim Himes, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, also said that after receiving intelligence briefings, it remains unclear what the relationship between the two sides and the Chinese government is and whether there was any exchange of information.
