Nvidia’s chips are at the center of the U.S.-China AI race, and Washington has spent years trying to keep the best ones out of Beijing’s hands.Now, a New York Times report says U.S. intelligence found that an alleged Chinese asset had built close ties to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang… and the White House chose not to act.In today’s AI rundown:

• Report: Nvidia CEO targeted by alleged Chinese spy
• Rowan’s Corner: ‘Sent from my agent’
• Make ElevenLabs voiceovers sound more natural
• Anthropic’s AI now monitors its own conversations

LATEST DEVELOPMENTSNVIDIA Report: Nvidia CEO targeted by alleged Chinese spyImage source: Net Thunder on LinkedInThe Rundown: The NYT just reported that U.S. officials found Alice Huang, an exec at Singapore-based data center firm Megaspeed, was allegedly passing intelligence to Beijing while keeping close ties with Jensen Huang, with Trump briefed about a year ago.The details:

• It’s unclear what Ms. Huang passed to Beijing or its value, but officials worried she could offer insight into Trump’s view on chip sales to China, and into Nvidia itself.
• Officials didn’t believe Jensen knew of her alleged role when Trump was briefed; he never got a defensive briefing, often given to U.S. citizens targeted by spies.
• Megaspeed, already under U.S. probe for steering Nvidia chips to China, bought at least $4.8B in Nvidia gear via a sister firm, and remains an Nvidia cloud partner.
• Nvidia called Jensen’s meetings with Ms. Huang routine, saying customers get ordinary business info and “zero information relevant to national security.”
• Megaspeed said outside counsel is investigating and it’s cooperating with the U.S., while China called the claims “groundless smears and slanders.”

Why it matters: The report reads like a spy thriller, but nothing has been publicly proven, including whether Ms. Huang passed anything to China. The immediate fallout may hit the loophole allowing firms like Megaspeed to rent Nvidia-powered computing from Southeast Asia to Chinese AI labs — one Trump reopened but may now close.TOGETHER WITH OPENART Create a launch video for your business The Rundown: Need a launch video for your business?

Basically, “Sent from my iPhone” started as a way to buy forgiveness for typos and messy formatting when emailing someone from your iPhone. But when someone sees “Sent from my agent,” the real message they receive is: you weren’t worth my attention.There’s real tension here (for me included). Agents are the biggest leverage available right now, and I run several tasks through them, saving me at least a few hours a week. But I also believe going the extra mile and writing something yourself shows the other human respect.So here’s my line:

• Anything that touches a person is me — social posts, messages, recruiting calls, live video.
• Anything that’s a task, an agent can do.

I also have a growing thesis that real human relationships will only become more valuable as AI gets better. Anything that risks that trust is probably a bad trade. Personally, if I see “sent from my agent,” I’m deleting the email.I’ve written before that AI intuition is the most important skill of this decade, knowing which tasks to hand to AI, and this is the perfect example. Use agents everywhere, except on people.Are you using agents to respond to your emails, or do you think the human touch shows respect? Let me know in the poll at the bottom of the email. I’m curious!AI TRAINING Make ElevenLabs voiceovers sound more naturalThe Rundown: In this guide, you’ll add Audio Tags to a short Eleven v4 voiceover, compare it with the plain version, and create a short scene with two speakers.Step-by-step:

• Open ElevenLabs Text to Speech, choose one voice, and select Eleven v4. Generate the guide’s plain script and save it for comparison
• Paste the tagged version without changing the spoken words. Keep the same voice and settings so you can hear the difference
• Compare the opening, pace, and final line. If the delivery stays flat, make one cue more specific. Change one thing at a time
• If a tag gets read aloud, check the model and square brackets. Keep the direction short and place it before the words it should affect
• Open Dialogue mode, add two voices, and generate the guide’s exchange. Check the words, speakers, and timing before downloading the clips

Pro tip: Save a plain version before adding tags. A more expressive read may still sound less natural. You can find our full cheat sheet, annotated scripts, and review checklist here.PRESENTED BY GLEAN From data to decisions, fasterThe Rundown: Business data spans across apps, warehouses, and BI platforms, while the context behind the numbers lives in documents, tickets, and conversations.

• Claude gives each conversation a quick safety verdict (whether it’s harmful, what kind of harm, and how urgent), which helps prioritize cases for human review.
• On Claude Fable 5, it catches 78% of potentially harmful conversations flagged by a stronger classifier, and 94% of high-priority ones, at a 1% false-positive rate.
• It helped uncover 100K+ child-abuse flags from a single API customer, reported to authorities, plus an automated romance-scam operation run through Claude Code.
• Anthropic admits it’s weak as a lone blocker, cutting attack success in red-team tests only from 79% to 54%, though it made each successful attack cost ~4x more.

Why it matters: After Anthropic’s own reports showed Claude being misused for cyberattacks and weapons work, letting the AI check and flag misuse in its own chats is a welcome layer. Claude brings everything it understands to each judgment, but it can also share the same blind spots, meaning the system isn’t foolproof (yet!).QUICK HITSCOMMUNITY AI WORKFLOW OF THE DAY▸ Michael used Claude Cowork to build a 3D home design appToday’s workflow comes from reader Michael Saif:“I built this web app for a friend who is building a house. It lets you see the finished version of every room in the planned home before anything is built. I described the idea to Claude Cowork, had a short back-and-forth answering its questions, and it built the app in four stages. You can upload one or more floor plans, select a room, and view it from several rotatable 3D angles.You can then describe how you want the room to look when completed, such as ‘Show me with a dark-colored wood floor with blue walls,’ and ask for changes, like light-colored wood floors. You can also add furniture to see how the room will look when finished, save multiple designs for each room, and export any image as a PNG. The whole build took less than an hour from start to finish.”See the workflow on our Community Workflow Hub →How do you use AI? Tell us for a chance to be featured in the newsletter.
