Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s withdrawal from the ElevenLabs Summit in New York was confirmed by the voice AI company on 9 November, TechCrunch reported. He has also dropped out of the Anthropic CEO Forum, taking two planned AI-industry appearances off his calendar.
Huang had been scheduled for a fireside chat at the ElevenLabs event on 11 November, and his name appeared to have been removed from its speaker list, Breaking the News reported. TechCrunch reported that Nvidia is an investor in ElevenLabs.
The withdrawals follow Huang’s admission of an extramarital affair in a memo to Nvidia staff, TechCrunch reported. In the memo, Huang wrote: “I owe my family and all of you an apology.” Nvidia has opened an investigation into his relationship with a possible Chinese spy.
