Los maquinistas paran hoy en la primera huelga de la semana y Renfe urge a los pasajeros a buscar alternativa a Cercanías

Los maquinistas de Renfe están llamados a la huelga este martes, en la primera jornada de paros de las tres que, con diversa amplitud en el sector ferrovario, se celebrarán hasta el 17 de noviembre , jalonadas también por concentraciones y marchas de protesta convocadas por distintos sindicatos del sector. Casi dos semanas después del accidente de Urda , se espera un amplio seguimiento del paro, hasta el punto de que Renfe advertía este lunes que el servicio de Cercanías puede verse "muy afectado", más allá de los servicios mínimos establecidos y empezando por los últimos trenes de este lunes. Aunque los servicios mínimos se han fijado en un 75% en las horas punta -de 6 a 9, de 13.30 a 15.30 y de 18.30h a 20.30h- y un 65% para el resto del día , la operadora no descarta que los maquinistas vuelvan a saltárselos, como ya ocurrió hace dos semanas.

During Paramount Skydance's latest earnings call , CEO David Ellison said "it's hard to imagine" AI won't have a bigger impact on the film industry than CGI. In response to a question about the company's outlook for AI, Ellison said: "I think when you zoom out and look at production, AI really has the potential to be the biggest creative unlock in modern history. The last time we saw anything close to this was really the, you know, advent of CGI and digital composites in the early 90s. That technology gave birth to amazing stories like Jurassic Park and Terminator 2 , and it's hard to imagine that AI is not going to have a more significant i … Read the full story at The Verge.

What could China get from Jensen Huang?

It's difficult to overstate Nvidia's power in today's AI landscape. The company's chips are the bedrock upon which advanced AI technology in the US is being built, and demand has consistently outpaced supply for years. Nvidia has also been an influential investor in a wide range of up-and-coming AI companies in recent years, with about $99 billion worth of equity investments in frontier AI labs, neoclouds, infrastructure companies, and more. Its chief executive has even become close with President Donald Trump. This is why, as both cofounder and longtime CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang would be a valuable target for a foreign adversary with sig … Read the full story at The Verge.

Everything we know so far about the Nvidia spy scandal targeting CEO Jensen Huang

The leather-jacketed CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, has acknowledged an affair with Megaspeed exec Alice Huang, spurring an investigation by his company and intense discussions worldwide. Recent reporting noted that since last year, US intelligence reports had identified Alice Huang (no relation) as not only the exec for an AI compute company renting access to Nvidia GPUs, but also a spy for China’s Ministry of State Security. In recent years, Nvidia has become a key part of the Trump administration’s AI push, a central figure in negotiations over potential Chinese access to cutting-edge AI hardware, and a company that has used its now $4 trillion-plus market cap to finance other AI companies, including the “neoclouds” like Coreweave who have been some of its biggest customers. So far, Nvidia and Jensen Huang have said that they have “no reason to believe that either national security or NVIDIA secrets were compromised,” but that hasn’t settled things as the investigation continues.
