Jensen Huang built the company that powers AI. Now Nvidia must find a way forward without him Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has resigned, capping a spectacular downfall for a poster boy of the artificial intelligence boom.

The resignation came after a dizzying series of headlines about Huang’s infidelity and ties to an alleged Chinese spy. Huang's departure sets off a scramble to find a permanent replacement to lead the multitrillion-dollar colossus that grew from obscurity to a perch between Apple and Microsoft at the top of the S&P index. Shares of Nvidia plummeted 14% at the opening bell, before stabilizing. Hunt for clues in deadly Brooklyn building collapse will take time NEW YORK (AP) — New York City’s mayor says two of the eight people killed when an apartment building collapsed in Brooklyn were children. A city official says the three-story building gave way Wednesday afternoon while construction workers were digging at a neighboring lot. The cause is still under investigation. Mayor Zohran Mamdani said during a news conference Thursday that two of the victims were construction workers. He says 18 people were injured in the collapse and rescue operation. The mayor has ordered safety inspections at about 100 building sites related to the companies involved in the construction project where the collapse occurred. 5 people are shot in DC, including 1 killed at a gym, and then suspect kills himself WASHINGTON (AP) — The gunman suspected of killing a man at a busy Washington, D.C., gym during morning workouts before fleeing and shooting four more people has been identified as a medical doctor locked in a dispute with building management over mold and moisture problems in his penthouse. Authorities say the gunman fatally shot himself inside an apartment where he'd been speaking by phone to police negotiators. Mayor Muriel Bowser says she's “devastated” at the loss of life. The shootings occurred Thursday morning in Logan Circle, about a mile north of the White House. A witness at the gym says people in its cardio area had to step over the dead victim’s body to get out. Trump bluntly tells JD Vance to shift focus from Iran to targeting 'corruption and crime' at home WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has urged Vice President JD Vance to shift focus from the Iran war to tackling corruption and crime in Democratic-controlled areas. Vance led a short-lived truce in the conflict and has blamed the war for Republican losses in the midterm elections. Trump in a Thursday social media post added, “We don’t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed." Trump earlier this week said the military aspect of the war is effectively over and emphasized no need for further negotiations. Tensions in the region persist, with recent attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and conflicts involving Iranian-backed forces in Yemen. Democrat Cindy Holscher is elected Kansas' next governor, extending her party's wave of victories TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Democrat Cindy Holscher has been elected Kansas' next governor. The state senator fended off Republican Ty Masterson to extend a massive wave of Democratic victories nationwide. She'll replace outgoing Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly in a victory that keeps the office in the party's hands. The political tailwinds that helped Holscher also pushed Adam Hamilton to become the first Democrat in Kansas to win a Senate race since 1932. Holscher promised to halt new data centers and overcame a flood of money that Republicans had poured behind Masterson. Democrats flock to Denver for a post-midterms introspection-turned-celebration DENVER (AP) — Prominent national Democrats headed to Denver for a big meeting fresh off a historic showing in the midterm elections. The What's Next conference was put on the calendar months before last week's big national blowout for the party. It was supposed to be a major event for the new party group that calls itself Majority Democrats. The organization bills itself as a way of getting out of the party's perennial left-center battles. Those may still show up in Denver as Democrats try to chart a new course after their landslide wins. But there's likely to also be a lot of celebration. Hegseth awards soldier who scolded him and his aides at Tomb of the Unknown Soldier WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has given a top award to the service member who scolded him and his staff at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier following a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. On social media Thursday, Hegseth posted photos that show him pinning the award and shaking hands with a soldier. His post says, “We love soldiers. We love standards. Well done, Specialist.” The Pentagon says Spc. Thomas Iglesias received the Joint Service Commendation Medal. Iglesias reprimanded Hegseth and his staff following a loud laugh during their photo session at the tomb on Wednesday. The medal is considered to be one of the higher awards in the military. Senators probe RFK Jr.'s Samoa trip testimony after AP and Guardian showed documents that refute it NEW YORK (AP) — Two Democratic senators are investigating whether Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. lied to Congress about a 2019 trip to Samoa. The Associated Press and The Guardian reported in August that Kennedy's testimony about the trip not being related to vaccines was refuted by a letter he sent to Samoa's prime minister. The letter mentioned vaccines multiple times. Senators Ron Wyden and Angela Alsobrooks have requested documents from Children's Health Defense, a group formerly chaired by Kennedy. They want information about his Samoa travel, presidential campaign, and Senate confirmation process. The Department of Health and Human Services maintains the trip was unrelated to vaccines. Ex-Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip pleads guilty to a lesser charge in 1997 killing Former Oklahoma death row prisoner Richard Glossip pleads guilty to a lesser charge after nearly 30 years in prison. He had faced execution three times for the 1997 killing of his former boss, Barry Van Treese. Prosecutors alleged it was a murder-for-hire scheme. The U.S. Supreme Court previously overturned Glossip’s conviction, and he was released on bond in May to await retrial. His claims of innocence have drawn support from Kim Kardashian and other prominent figures. Glossip pleaded guilty to being an accessory, and the murder charge was dismissed. He will be sentenced in December.
