San José (United States) (AFP) - Nvidia on Monday announced a major expansion of its collaboration with world-leading BYD and other Chinese electric car makers, including on the development of autonomous AI-boosted vehicles. The move deepens Nvidia's connections with the Chinese EV industry even as it is separately prohibited by the United States from exporting its most powerful AI hardware to China. BYD, which beat Elon Musk's Tesla in sales in the last quarter of 2023, is the latest Chinese auto firm to use Nvidia's DRIVE Thor, an all-in-one vehicle control system that is bolstered by powerf...

Yokohama F.Marinos made history by advancing to the AFC Champions League semifinals for the first time ever, courtesy of Anderson Lopes’ decisive goal securing a 1-0 victory over Shandong Taishan on Wednesday, completing a 3-1 aggregate triumph for Harry Kewell’s squad. Lopes found the back of the net in the 75th minute, a moment of brilliance that proved crucial as Yokohama navigated most of the second half with ten players following Katsuya Nagato’s sending off for a second yellow card offense early in the half. This triumph sets up an exciting clash with two-time champions Ulsan HD from Sou...

Beijing (AFP) - The US ambassador to China said Friday that Beijing's position on a potential TikTok ban in the United States was "supremely ironic" given the ruling Communist Party's censorship of online platforms within its borders. The US House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved a bill on Wednesday that would force the wildly popular short-video app to break with its Chinese parent company or face a nationwide ban. China has sharply criticised the approval, slamming what it called Washington's "bandit" mentality and accusing lawmakers of "unjustly suppressing foreign companies". US ...

Washington (AFP) - Steve Mnuchin, the former US treasury secretary under Donald Trump, said Thursday he was preparing a buyout bid of TikTok, as Beijing blasted a bill moving through Congress that would force the sale of the Chinese-owned video-sharing app. TikTok has soared in popularity worldwide, but its ownership by Chinese technology giant ByteDance -- and alleged subservience to Beijing's ruling Communist Party -- has fuelled national security concerns in Western capitals. On Wednesday, the US House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved a bill that would force TikTok to divest from ...

La propuesta de ley fue aprobada por una gran mayoría de 352 votos frente a 65 votos y pasa directamente al senado estadounidense en lo que podría ser el primer gran golpe contra TikTok y que podría tener efecto dominó con el resto de países.

Washington (AFP) - TikTok creators voiced outrage Wednesday over proposed legislation that could scuttle the platform in the United States, saying it defies common sense and financial wisdom. The House of Representatives approved a bill that would force TikTok to divest from its Chinese owner or be banned over its alleged links to the Communist Party in Beijing. "If it was really about all the things they were saying, then we would be having this conversation with (X owner) Elon Musk, who basically could change American politics at a whim," TikTok creator Ariella Elm told AFP outside the White...

Zimbabwe, Africa’s largest tobacco producer, began its annual tobacco-selling season on Wednesday, with officials and farmers projecting a sharp decline in harvests and quality because of a drought blamed on climate change and worsened by El Niño. From a record harvest of 296 million kilograms (326,000 tons) last year, the country is estimating that production will fall to about 235 million kilograms (259,000 tons) this season, says Patrick Devenish, chairman of the Tobacco Industry Marketing Board (TIMB), at the official opening event in the capital, Harare. “Most of our tobacco is grown by s...
