We finally see a possible way out. After more than six weeks without a clear path, the Senate approved a bill to reopen the government by a vote of 60 to 40 and sent it to the House of Representatives. The measure would keep federal agencies funded through January 30, 2026, and brings an end to the longest recent shutdown, which began on October 1, within reach. The president has indicated he would support the deal if it lands on his desk.

As we discussed in previous articles about Latin America’s struggle to keep pace with AI growth, Europe now seeks to accelerate its own transformation. With initiatives like the AI Act and GenAI4EU, the continent is pushing for innovation while facing a shortage of skilled professionals. In this context, nearshore companies such as Square Codex provide the technical talent and expertise needed to drive sustainable progress in AI development.

The U.S. government shutdown drags on. As we noted in our last article, this is getting less sustainable by the day and is now the longest in recent history. Today we want to focus on something that could create serious headaches if you need to travel soon. The Federal Aviation Administration decided to reduce flight volume by 10 percent at 40 high-traffic airports to mitigate risk from fatigue and a shortage of controllers who are working without pay. These are not full closures, but the cutbacks will hit itineraries, tourism, and logistics across the country.

We’ve reached November and the United States government is still shut down. It is genuinely worrying for people and for businesses. The stoppage has entered day 36, becoming the longest in recent history, with public services disrupted and hundreds of thousands of employees unpaid or on temporary furlough. The U.S. economy is starting to feel it week by week. Some analysts estimate alarming losses of around $15 billion per week while government activity is frozen, a bill that does not simply disappear when Capitol Hill reaches a late deal. The cost is not just a headline number.

In the United States OpenAI, creator of ChatGPT, signed today a $38 billion cloud computing agreement with Amazon Web Services. The alliance gives immediate access to hundreds of thousands of next-generation GPUs and reinforces AWS as the go-to provider for large-scale AI workloads. Beyond the headline, the message is clear: global competition is pulling ahead at the pace of those who can finance and operate massive compute infrastructure, not just those with good ideas.

Amazon just joined the list of companies making massive cuts to their teams and announced the elimination of about 14,000 corporate roles at the end of October 2025. That number landed after days of rumors and leaks pointing to a possible adjustment of up to 30,000 positions, although the company stuck to the 14,000 figure as the confirmed round. The stated goal is to gain agility, simplify layers, and redirect resources toward strategic bets like artificial intelligence, without framing it as a plain cost-cutting move.
