President Donald Trump has suggested Apple Executive Chairman Tim Cook replace Jensen Huang as Nvidia CEO, following Huang's reported resignation from the artificial intelligence chipmaker.
Trump made the recommendation on Truth Social, praising Huang's leadership while contrasting his departure with what he described as Apple's "textbook" leadership transition.
Huang's exit followed reports of two extramarital affairs, including an alleged relationship with an executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed International who is suspected of spying for Beijing.
The reports have raised national security concerns. Huang co-founded Nvidia 33 years ago.
Cook, who stepped down as Apple's CEO in September, remains executive chairman. There is no indication that he has expressed interest in taking the Nvidia position.
