Jensen Huang, Nvidia's CEO, pulled out of the ElevenLabs Summit scheduled for Wednesday in New York, the voice AI company confirmed Monday. He also withdrew from other speaking engagements, including the Anthropic CEO Forum. Nvidia is an investor in ElevenLabs.
Huang's withdrawals follow his admission over the weekend of an extramarital affair. Nvidia has opened an investigation into his relationship with a possible Chinese spy.
"I owe my family and all of you an apology. I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry," Huang said in a memo to the company.
The incident has raised questions about Huang's tenure as CEO and Nvidia's China strategy within the AI industry.
