The Wall Street Journal has claimed the board of Nvidia is preparing to oust its chief executive - after suggestions he's had a second affair.

The high-end microchip supplier is considered instrumental in the global AI boom, and these developments have sparked concerns among industry experts.

Reports claim Jensen Huang had a relationship with a direct-report company executive - on top of his earlier affair with another woman believed to be a spy.
