Is a Chinese spy just “one phone call away from the White House”?

Nvidia, the company at the centre of the global AI build-out, has launched an independent investigation after reports its CEO Jensen Huang was allegedly targeted by a Chinese intelligence operation.

What could the allegations - and the investigation now underway - mean for one of the world’s most valuable companies?

Carrington Clarke and ABC Business reporter Stephanie Chalmers break it all down on ABC Business Daily.
