Nvidia founder Jensen Huang agreed Thursday after his resignation as CEO, amid allegations of extra-marital affairs, to brief Congress on one relationship – with an alleged female Chinese spy, a House lawmaker says.

Rep. John Moolenaar, the chairman of the bipartisan House committee on China, said he's in discussions with Huang to find a suitable time to brief committees, according to NBC News. 

U.S. intelligence agencies concluded the woman, Alice Huang, was spying for China. Revelations about the relationship, followed by new ones Wednesday about an affair with a company executive who reported to him, led to his resignation Thursday morning.

Nvidia is a chip making firm that has been integral to the AI revolution. Jensen's downfall in recent days has rippled through the Big Tech industry and financial markets. Trump had backed Jensen, a big donor, amid the intelligence report.
