Jensen Huang's resignation as Nvidia's CEO is unlikely to disrupt Taiwan's technology industry or the broader development of artificial intelligence, Acer founder Stan Shih said. His comments signal that Taiwan's chip and server capabilities remain important to Nvidia's expansion, while highlighting potential adjustments in supplier relationships, investment, and market expectations.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's forced resignation over a personal controversy, alongside looming regulatory and legal battles, is set to reverberate far beyond GPU orders and product roadmaps. His departure directly threatens the sprawling global AI investment and financing network he personally orchestrated, leaving multiple pending deals in limbo.

The United Kingdom's steelmaking hub of Sheffield is transforming from a heavy-industry center into a deep-tech startup cluster, but securing a foothold in the AI, quantum, and photonics wave will require the city to overcome both the mass-production barriers facing high-tech products and a shortage of talent.

On a early November evening in 2022, two young women were performing on a street near Taipei Expo Park when a man in a black leather jacket stopped to listen.

When Jensen Huang's resignation took effect on November 12, most of the market's attention turned to who would be Nvidia's next CEO. However, a better starting point for judging what Nvidia will look like a decade from now is to ask the reverse question: had Huang stayed on, what kind of company would Nvidia have become by 2035? The gap between that original blueprint and the new reality is the true cost of his departure.

South Korean AI chip developer DEEPX has completed the tape-out of its next-generation DX-M2 processor using Samsung Electronics' second-generation 2nm process, advancing plans to bring generative AI to robots and industrial equipment while reducing their reliance on cloud computing.

Cerebras Systems reported third-quarter 2026 results, delivering record core revenue of US$231 million, up 10% sequentially and 70% year-over-year, and positive core net income of US$30 million, its first positive non-GAAP net income as a public company.

Chinese AI companies reportedly are racing to sign overseas compute deals as they fear the political fallout of the Nvidia spy scandal could push US lawmakers to restrict their remote access to advanced chips. Congress could boost passage of such bills after mid-term elections revealed the US public's desire to rein in AI leaders and have possibly limited President Donald Trump's hold over Republican legislators.

Intel is courting South Korea's AI ecosystem on two fronts: a 23-company alliance built around Korean-made servers and an inference GPU that swaps costly high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for low-power DRAM. At the 2026 Intel AI Summit Seoul, held at COEX on November 12, the US chipmaker also offered its custom chip design and foundry services to a market crowded with neural processing unit (NPU) startups and home to two of the world's largest memory makers.

Megaspeed International said it is reviewing its graphics processing unit inventory and export-control practices as it seeks to demonstrate compliance with applicable US laws. The company's statement, issued November 12, 2026, signals scrutiny of technology shipments and regulatory obligations, with relevance for businesses and governments that operate across markets.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has stepped down, while the US is preparing another round of tighter export controls on advanced AI chips. Industry sources expect Washington to extend its oversight beyond the physical movement of hardware to the use of computing power at overseas data centres. NVIDIA Announces CEO Transition+1

PsiQuantum and AMD are expanding their partnership to develop infrastructure for utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers and hybrid systems combining quantum, high-performance, and AI computing. The agreement includes AMD processors, GPUs, software, and an equity investment, with potential applications in drug discovery and other industries worldwide as systems scale globally.

Special Melted Products, a UK subsidiary of Taiwan-based wire, cable, and stainless steel manufacturer Walsin Lihwa, is partnering with National Taiwan University (NTU) and the University of Sheffield to establish an advanced international research center. The initiative will combine Sheffield's traditional steelmaking base with strengths in heterogeneous integration and compound semiconductors, targeting the aerospace and defense industries as key commercial outlets.

Is Nvidia's moat still intact? A slide in Anthropic's IPO filing has quickly sparked industry debate after revealing that Anthropic's Claude Mythos Preview model spent only about three days exploring how to run inference for another AI model on Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Instinct MI355X GPUs.

For generations, Sheffield's industrial identity has been forged in steel. Yet behind that familiar legacy, a less visible technological transformation has been unfolding for decades.

Inside a refurbished industrial building in Sheffield, a quantum computing laboratory is preparing for a future that could transform how the world develops medicines, advanced materials, and computing infrastructure.

A network of companies tied to Alice Huang, the alleged Chinese intelligence operative involved in a romantic relationship with former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, recently invested in Chinese AI powerhouse DeepSeek to help secure a steady supply of banned Nvidia Blackwell chips, according to reports and corporate records referenced by The Information.

Malaysia is reviewing possible breaches of AI chip export restrictions involving Speedmatrix, a local subsidiary of Singapore-based Megaspeed International, while preparing legislation to tighten oversight of data centers and prevent advanced Nvidia GPUs from being diverted to China.

Under mounting pressure, Nvidia founder Jensen Huang has resigned as president, CEO, and board member, effective immediately. Executive vice president and chief financial officer Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO, while the board launches an internal and external search for a successor.

Nvidia founder and former CEO Jensen Huang has agreed to appear before the US House of Representatives ahead of the holiday break, addressing export controls and related controversies. Several senior lawmakers had previously threatened to subpoena Huang over Nvidia's business strategy in China and related policy issues.

Cerebras Systems has become more of a cloud inference business than a hardware supplier. In the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, the company reported record GAAP revenue of US$210.8 million, up 55% from a year earlier. Cloud and other services now account for about two-thirds of the total. Reported profitability has not kept pace. Non-cash charges for customer warrants and employee stock compensation, which jumped after the company's listing, pulled GAAP gross margin down to 20% and left operating losses far wider than a year ago.

Singapore said it independently investigated Hong Kong resident Alice Huang and Singapore-registered Megaspeed International over suspected false declarations involving servers exported through Singapore, while stressing that companies must consider foreign export controls. The case highlights Singapore's position on cross-border trade, cooperation with overseas authorities, and enforcement against alleged dishonest practices.

A dispute between Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent over how hard to police Nvidia chip shipments to China has moved to the center of Washington's fallout from espionage allegations involving Nvidia's former CEO, with White House officials discussing whether Lutnick should be pushed out and lawmakers pressing his department to add Chinese firms that have been left alone to its Entity List.

The loophole that lets Chinese AI developers rent Nvidia chips in overseas data centers is becoming the main target of a tougher US export-control push. Democrats swept both chambers of Congress in the November 3 midterms, and the Commerce Department is moving to finalize its own remote-access rule. The stakes are large: remote access accounts for about half of the US-made AI compute that Washington could still cut off from China by the end of 2027, according to the Institute for Progress (IFP).

Nvidia's product pipeline is locked in for the next two years, analysts say, but Jensen Huang's resignation calls into question the annual upgrade cadence he personally drove and exposes how thin the company's formal leadership bench is beneath a CEO who ran it with dozens of direct reports and no second-in-command.
