Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has pulled out of the ElevenLabs Summit scheduled for this Wednesday in New York, ElevenLabs, the voice AI company, confirmed Monday.

The withdrawals comes after Huang admitted to an extramarital affair over the weekend, and Nvidia opened an investigation into his relationship with a possible Chinese spy. “I owe my family and all of you an apology. I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry,” Huang said in a memo to the company. The incident has rattled the AI industry, raising questions about Huang’s staying power as CEO and Nvidia’s own China ambitions.
