Jensen The White? Huang Reportedly Weighs Nvidia Comeback As Silicon Valley "War Room" Of Allies Assembles Days after resigning over his affair with an alleged Chinese spy, Jensen…

Days after resigning over his affair with an alleged Chinese spy, Jensen Huang is considering a return as Nvidia's chief executive, according to the Financial Times, as his allies in Silicon Valley lean on the chipmaker's board to reinstate him.

Huang has discussed a potential comeback with confidantes, multiple people familiar with the matter told the paper, even as an independent probe by Nvidia's board digs into the conduct that brought him down. One ally said they were assembling a "war room" of Silicon Valley executives to lobby for his return and would try to win over the White House, and that the effort had Huang's support.

"Everyone that matters in tech outside the frontier labs loves Jensen," the ally told the FT.

That jab at the frontier labs lands on a fight we've been following. On Friday's All-In podcast, David Sacks argued that Huang was the last big defender of open-source AI and that the "safetyist" camp aligned with Anthropic wants the models and the chips under government control, as we reported.

The push comes as the spy case behind his fall looks shakier. According to reports, CIA officials are "not yet convinced" Alice Huang knowingly passed anything to Beijing, and the Washington Post reported that the classified memo naming her a Chinese spy was Secretary of State Marco Rubio's own work - built from a CIA report he recast "in his own more assertive terms." Attorney General Todd Blanche has said neither the DOJ nor the FBI has concluded she was a spy: "nobody said that."

The public side of the campaign is an open letter to Nvidia's board under the banner "Bring Jensen Back." By Saturday morning it carried more than 100,000 names, including 5,248 people who say they currently work at Nvidia and 53,233 who say they are shareholders, according to a Moneywise count of the self-reported list. Signers named on it include Elon Musk, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan, Replit CEO Amjad Masad and investor Gavin Baker.
