Musk says hiring Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang would be "an honor"

Musk said hiring Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang would be "an honor," after The Wall Street Journal reported that Nvidia's board was preparing to meet as early as Wednesday to discuss Huang's future. The remark was a response to a post on X by financial blog Zerohedge saying "Elon please hire Jensen"; after the news emerged, Nvidia shares fell more than 8% in after-hours trading. The New York Times previously reported that Huang had an extramarital affair with another Nvidia executive; Huang acknowledged over the weekend an extramarital affair with business executive Alice Huang, and according to the newspaper, citing people familiar with the matter, U.S. intelligence agencies determined that Alice Huang was recruited by China's Ministry of State Security to gather information on Huang. Huang faces resignation calls from multiple members of Congress, and Republican Senator Kevin Cramer of North Dakota reiterated that "for his own conscience's sake, he should resign."
