Nvidia may be about to fire Jensen Huang...
So the timeline has evolved significantly since I last reported on it. Let me break down the facts that have come out since.
- It started with Nvidia hiring a leading US law firm to conduct a "thorough and independent" investigation into the relationship with an alleged Chinese spy.
- As the week progressed, Nvidia's stock recovered quite a bit here.
- BUT THEN, New York Times reported that Huang has had a second extramarital relationship — this time with a company employee called Kimberly Powell.
- And now, after the second revelation, Nvidia's board of directors met to decide whether to oust Jensen Huang as CEO.
We're waiting to see what happens before reporting or analyzing anything. But I must be honest, this feels like a Netflix series waiting to happen.
Google Wallet adds digital home keys, years after Apple
Google has added the ability to unlock compatible smart door locks through Google Wallet, half a decade after Apple did the same with Apple Wallet. The feature is rolling out through the Google Home Public Preview over the next few weeks.
Once the feature is set up by adding a compatible smart lock to Google Home, users can add a digital passkey to Google Wallet alongside their other payment cards. From there, it's just a case of tapping your phone to the lock to open the door.
Nvidia CEO in more hot water
Nvidia'sJensen Huang may be out soon as the New York Times just reported that the CEO had a second extramarital affair, this time with an executive who reported to him.
The Wall Street Journal reports Nvidia is preparing to oust the company founder.
The Nvidia board is supposed to be meeting today and may decide Huang's fate as soon as tomorrow.
