Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has withdrawn from the ElevenLabs Summit in New York, scheduled for Wednesday, the company confirmed Monday. He has also dropped out of other speaking engagements, including the Anthropic CEO Forum, as scrutiny grows over recent revelations about his personal life and a separate investigation.
Huang said in a memo to Nvidia employees that he had been unfaithful to his wife and apologized to her, their children and others. “There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry,” he wrote.
The withdrawals follow Huang’s admission over the weekend of an extramarital affair. Nvidia has also opened an investigation into his relationship with a person described as a possible Chinese spy. Nvidia is an investor in ElevenLabs, the voice AI company hosting the New York summit.
The developments have unsettled the AI industry, raising questions about Huang’s staying power as CEO and Nvidia’s ambitions in China.
