Nvidia 'spy' scandal: did Jensen Huang fall straight into a honey trap?
12 nov 2026 · 00:21:42
How do so-called honey traps really work? Did China actually plant a spy in a tech firm to get close to Nvidia's former boss Jensen Huang? And what does this story tell us about the stakes in the global AI race? Christiane and Jamie explain why this scarcely believable tale matters so much, and Jamie reveals his own personal experiences of Russian and Chinese espionage.
They also continue to react to the midterms, analysing what the results mean for the far right around the world, and whether we are now closer to the AI bubble bursting.
Plus Christiane responds to Trump admitting he's been 'too tough' on immigration and she and Jamie discuss whether James Talarico has finally taught his fellow Democrats how to use religion to their advantage.
