Nvidia, rocked by CEO's sudden resignation, has ties to Sacramento-area AI plans

A major chipmaker whose founder and chief executive abruptly resigned Thursday had ties to a proposed artificial intelligence hub in the Sacramento area. Jensen Huang resigned as president , chief executive officer and a board member of Nvidia, the company said. He cofounded the company in 1993. Huang, 63, apologized Sunday for being “unfaithful to my wife,” CNBC reported. His apology followed reports that he had an affair with Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, an Nvidia customer. Alice Huang, who is not related to the former CEO, is reportedly suspected of being a Chinese spy, according to news reports. Jensen Huang also reportedly had an affair with Kimberly Powell, vice president of healthcare at the chipmaker. Colette Kress, Nvidia’s executive vice president and chief financial officer, was named interim CEO, the company said. Nvidia, based in Santa Clara, is a leading manufacturer of chips used to power artificial intelligence systems. What are Nvidia’s ties to Sacramento? In October 2025, Nvidia discussed plans to establish an AI innovation hub in Rancho Cordova in partnership with the Human Machine Collaboration Institute. The project was intended to “boost the city’s AI capabilities with AI infrastructure, workforce upskilling and student training,”

A Sacramento-area veteran suffered from PTSD. This service dog changed his life

Tony Escue’s service dog Hugh has helped him regain some of the independence he thought he’d lost — and shown him what life beyond constant anxiety could look like. Escue, a 32-year-old Orangevale resident, served for nearly 10 years in the U.S. Army before his medical retirement in 2023. That year, he was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, after years of symptoms that had made it difficult for him to go places on his own. He turned to Canine Companions, a Santa Rosa-based nonprofit that helps veterans and others by connecting them with service dogs. This led Escue to Hugh, a Labrador mix who is almost 4. Hugh can do everything from turning on lights to tucking himself into the carry-on bag area under an airplane seat so he can ride with Escue, who takes him everywhere. “I was so trapped in my head for so long – years,” Escue said during an interview at Orangevale Community Park with Hugh at his side. “He really helped me to be able to have some independence and have some freedom in my life, and really give my family the freedom that I was worried that they were missing out on.” Why Escue
