"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.

Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.

To my wife and family: I love you. I know an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope our family will heal and that, over time, I can earn back your trust.

To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those I have worked alongside for decades, and to our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me. Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to earn back your confidence.

Regarding the national security concerns raised in news reports, NVIDIA’s Board of Directors has initiated an independent investigation. I support the investigation and will cooperate fully. I love our country and our company. I am committed to protecting NVIDIA and supporting America’s national security. I am proud and grateful to be an American.

My family bears no responsibility for my choices. I do. Please give them privacy.

Jensen"

Admitting it only when finally caught, and not a resignation letter. So weak.

    "I am deeply sorry I got caught. But rest assured, I will not do anything about it and continue to be a piece of shit making the world a terrible place."

    AMD must be itching to announce Lisa Su was cheating with a spy that's not as good, but has somewhat better value

    He was only faithful to the billionaires.

    And his fellow C-suite and other CEOs will continue to do so.

    I hope he gets what he deserves.

    Any non-C-level employee would have been walked out the door immediately for passing secrets to a spy. The CEO does it and the worst that happens is he has to write a letter saying "so sorry". Considering the sell off which has been happening of NVidia stock, I can't help but wonder how many people who didn't hand over secrets to a spy for a quick fuck will lose their jobs while this guy either stays employed or takes a golden parachute.

    Whatever. These tech CEOs all have such a humiliation fetish. The letter is short because that's how long it took him to finish.
