He is winning the game to Barajas

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

Traveling from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid in just over an hour is possible. By plane, of course. The problem is that this travel time is not realistic and that is why the train does not stop gaining adherents in the Galicia-Madrid corridor. Better offer, more comfort and a clear winner: Renfe. More travelers. Specifically 181,588 travelers. Those are the ones who collect The Galician mailhave been mounted on one of Renfe’s trains during the first month in which the company has fully had its high -speed trains, with the entire full hourly offer. The figure is spectacular when compared to the plane. In that same month, airlines have set up 155,715 people aboard their vehicles. It is a historical milestone for a means of transport where the train has always been behind the plane. Looking back. In the Gallego newspaper they explain that evolution has been spectacular. The first works that would end up leading to the current high -speed line began in 2011. Then, only 20,000 travelers opted for the train to move along this line. Today the figure is above 180,000 passengers. Although over the years the train has been stealing passengers, as I reduced travel times, the plane was still the preferred means of transport. In 2019, Renfe moved between 40,000 and 60,000 passengers but air traffic continued to exceed 200,000 passengers. Those times have been left behind. Making the plane back. The opening of high speed has caused A clear traveler transfer to the train. Since last year, Galicia and Madrid are united by high speed. And although arrived late and there was controversy With its trains (including an incomprehensible break with the entrance of the new year), Renfe has added more and more passengers. To the point that the train has the most complete offer of schedules. The airlines have been canceling routes and operating with smaller airplanes because they cannot compete in price or times. Yes, it takes more train but it leaves from the center of the Galician cities and you reach Chamartín, a well connected station in the financial nucleus of Madrid. As if that were not enough, The train is cheaper. Less offer in the air. Collect in The Galician mail which is easy to track to what extent the train is going back to the plane. Galician airports are suffering Partial output of Ryanairwhich has abandoned some routes as a pressure measure before what They consider abusive rates by Aena and against the fine imposed by the Government Retailing hand luggage. But it’s just another example. Although Air Europa does maintain its current offer with 56 weekly flights adding Vigo and A Coruña, Air Nostrum is operating with smaller airplanes to dimension the offer to the new reality. A reef. The result is great for Renfe that has found a trench in front of the competition. In recent weeks the rumor had run that Ouigo was trying to get trains To operate that line. Or, even, it was said that Renfe could rent rolling material. The latter has been totally discarded by its president who has assured that “whoever wants to come (to the Galician corridor), to invest.” The key is that the line needs to operate with specific trains that can change from Iberian wide to international width. However, Talgo has all its compromised production And he has no space to serve Renfe rivals, at least, before this decade ends. Good numbers. Although the information surrounding Renfe turns in recent times around the problems in their trains, the truth is that the company is receiving good news in recent days. According to your own data, the first semester of 2025 He has broken his own record in the travel of travelers. This record is not understood without the great growth in the trips of the Galician corridor. Its high -speed trains to Galicia destination and those dedicated to the Extremaduran corridor High speed trips have fired. In both cases, Renfe does not have to compete with ouigo or Iro that yes They have forced him to lower prices and have stolen customers in the Catalan, Valencian and Andalusian corridor.

Europe had killed its hopes to find oil in the continent. Poland has just changed that

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

“The oil market is misleading.” This is warned by analyst Javier Blas In a recent article for Bloombergwhere he points out that under the apparent price stability a deep transformation that has altered the seasonality of global consumption is hidden. It is no longer winter, but summer, the moment of greatest demand for crude. And in this new scenario, Poland could be facing a turning point: the finding of the largest conventional hydrocarbon deposit in its history, in the waters of the Baltic Sea. A submerged treasure. The Canadian Central European Petroleum (CEP) company, backed by Norway investment, has announced the discovery of the Wolin Este site (We1), located just six kilometers from the coast. TVN24 He has reported That the site includes 22 million tons of oil and 5,000 million cubic meters of natural gas, with a total estimate in the concession of 33 million tons of crude oil and 27,000 million cubic meters of gas. According to calculations cited by BBCthis figure would represent around 200 million barrels of oil, which makes it a strategic finding both for its volume and its location. It doesn’t change everything, but it changes a lot. Poland consumes about 700,000 barrels of crude oil per day, but its local production does not exceed 18,000. The rest matters. In that context, a discovery that can triple national production represents more than good news: it is a potential turning point. Wolin’s exploitation could multiply national production by three, according to CEP Executive Director, Rolf Skaar, In statements collected by TVN24. In addition, the crude found has an API index of 33.4, which classifies it as light, that is, easier and more economical to refine. This finding comes when Poland has already taken Russia’s energy distance after the invasion of Ukraine: it has connected to Norwegian gas through Baltic Pipe, has reinforced its import capacity of LNG since świnoujście and has diversified its access to crude oil through Naftaport, in Gdansk. But still depending, to a large extent, abroad. Wolin can start changing that. From the finding to extraction. The concession of Wolin, of 593 km², was perforated by the specialized platform Noble Resolve, reaching a vertical depth of 2,715 meters. The We1 well was left in future conditions and geological analysis confirmed a 62 -meter hydrocarbon column in the main dolomite formation (CA₂), As detailed Gospodarka Morska. CEP has already invested about 200 million Zlotys in seismic studies and drilling, and now looks for Polish and international partners to undertake the exploitation phase. Conversations with companies such as PGNIG (now integrated into Orlen) have been restarted after the fusion of state energy. International Resonance. Wolin’s discovery occurs while the international crude oil market navigates uncertain waters. According to ReutersBrent’s futures closed Monday under 70 dollars. The reason: the new sanctions of the European Union against Russia, which now prohibit the importation of refined products in third countries with Russian crude, such as India. Although analysts believe that the supply will find new paths, concerns arise about the impact on the diesel market, more difficult to replace. That tension adds an important nuance: the new deposits in European soil are not only an energy advantage, but also a geostrategic asset. And now what? The new site will not solve the Polish energy dependence on its own, but it could mark a turning point. As the energy expert points out Wojciech Jakóbik in BBC, the finding “will strengthen energy security, provided that estimates are confirmed in practice and develop the necessary infrastructure.” Today, it is not clear if a new pipeline will be built or existing infrastructure will be used. Meanwhile, CEP holds conversations with multiple actors and, as Jakóbik recalls, the project requires companies with “greater risk tolerance and investment capacity”. An energy window in convulsive times. The discovery in the Baltic Sea comes just when the global market enters its moment of maximum seasonal demand, in the middle of the northern hemisphere. As Bloomberg explained, the seasonality of crude has changed: it is no longer winter, but the summer months that mark consumption roofs. The big question is whether Poland can take this opportunity without repeating the mistakes of the past. The window is open. But it will not be forever.

What the failure of the “antiapagones decree” implies for Spain

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

The Congress of Deputies rejected on Tuesday, July 22 The so -called “antiapages” decree, a rule that sought to reinforce the electrical system after the blackout last April 28. The parliamentary defeat. The text, approved in the Council of Ministers as Royal Decree-Law 7/2025did not achieve the necessary support for his validation: 183 votes against 165 in favor. Among the negative votes were those of PP, Vox, Podemos, Junts, BNG and UPN, in addition to the deputy of the Aragonese Chunta integrated in Addar, Jorge Pueyo, who broke the vote discipline. This varapalo, which arrives just before the summer break, prevents the application of a package of urgent technical measures for the Spanish energy system. The norm sought, among other things, to improve the supervision of the electricity grid, to facilitate access to new industries, promote self -consumption and penalize breaches by large electricity. Not so bad. Although the Government managed to move forward six of the seven laws that led to the plenary, the fall of the most strategic decree of the day left a feeling of defeat. As RTVE picked upfrom Montevideo, where he is on tour, Pedro Sánchez tried to remove iron from the matter: “Not so bad,” said government sources recognize their “disappointment” to what they consider a vote “against the general interest.” Behind the rejection. The reasons that have ended in this situation are as diverse as the matches that have lying it. On the one hand, the Popular Party has considered that the norm was an undercover support for an energy policy that they consider failed and unre transparent, in addition to criticizing that there has been no resignation after the blackout of April 28. On the other hand, Podemos has unmarked from its government partners when considering that the decree did not contain real sanctions against the electric oligopoly and have labeled it with “legislative makeup” without transformative effects. In the case of Vox, the rejection has been ideological and frontal to any initiative of the Executive. Other formations such as Junts and BNG have interpreted the text as an excessive assignment to large energy companies and wanted to mark distances at a key moment of negotiation with the government. Together, the norm has ended up being a victim of a fragmented legislature, of cross interests and of the political distrust even within the block that supports the Executive. The origin of the decree. As detailed by the jumpthe decree was born in June after a report that was blamed for the blackout of April 28 to Red Eléctrica de España and the great generators (Endesa, Iberdrola, Naturgy). The measures, as explained by Vice President Third Sara Aagesen, intended to prevent new crises such as that and unlock pending projects in a saturated electrical system. Aagesen appealed to the “social consensus” behind the norm, which had the support of business associations, environmentalists and the renewable sector. By eating the decree. The Royal Decree-Law 7/2025 was more technical than political, but with deep implications. According to the jumpsome of its keys were greater public control (such as CNMC reports more frequent More agile authorizations, even with the possibility of sharing connection points. Despite not containing a structural transformation of the energy model or a public company, some groups celebrated it as a “first step” to decentralize the system. As noted from the same media, the Alliance for Self -Consumption, which brings together more than 60 social entities, described the decree as “the great lever” to democratize energy. It was also positively valued for allowing renewable energies to act as support energy, a function so far reserved for thermal plants. The theme is deeper. The Spanish electrical system is saturated: only one in ten requests for access to the network was met in 2024, despite the fact that there was unused technical capacity, such as have pointed out in the Energy newspaper. This rigidity is a brake for strategic industrial projects such as green hydrogen, battery manufacturing or data centers, that require agile and stable connections. The decree tried to anticipate these problems with more dynamic planning and proactive regulations, in line with the recommendations of the European Commission. Once summer ends. The Government has announced its intention to reformulate the text, but the coup is significant. Meanwhile, the PP plans to present an alternative law together with the Autonomous Communities. According to expansionthe employers of the energy sector ask for quick solutions and warn of the risks for competitiveness if it does not act urgently. Every month of delay represents lost opportunities to attract green and industrial investment. A blocked opportunity. The antiapages decree was not perfect, but necessary, according to a good part of the sector. Its rejection shows the limitations of Spanish energy policy, where faced interests, power struggles and internal distrust weigh more than climatic or industrial urgency. Now, while the country dealt with a collapsed electricity and the ghost of new blackouts, the clock is still running. And every month without a solution is a less opportunity to lead the energy transition that Europe demands and that Spain could lead.

Two gigantic parks that will make “sponges”

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

The Generalitat Valenciana has presented your strategy to deal with future floods after Dana’s disaster: The creation of two huge green corridors that will occupy 1,500 hectares and work as water absorption areas. The project, baptized as “Parque de la Esperanza”, will require an investment of more than 150 million euros and aims to become one of the largest metropolitan parks in Europe. What includes the plan. The project includes two large green axes of 35 kilometers of total extension. The first will expand the current Turia channel in 10.5 additional kilometers, connecting the heading park with the mount of La Vallesa. The second will take place in the area most affected by the Dana on October 29, with a main section of 18.5 kilometers from the Albufera to Picanya and another secondary of 5.5 kilometers between La Torre, Massanassa and Catarroja, following the route of the ravine of the poyo. Seeking to replicate the work of the Albufera. The Dana disaster, which claimed the lives of 228 people, demonstrated the vulnerability of the area to such meteorological catastrophe. At that time, the albufera acted as a natural laminator, absorbing part of the water and avoiding major damage. Now the idea with this project is Replicate this capacity in a planned way in areas that can serve to cushion damage to future overflows. How will it work. These spaces will act as giant “sponges”, absorbing excess water in times of torrential rains and allowing a controlled water release. The project includes the plantation of 100,000 trees and the creation of water sheets integrated in the landscape. Eduardo Rojas, UPV professor, commented that the sediments dragged by the Dana They will be reused to adjust the land levels and protect the inhabited areas of future overflows. Between the lines. Beyond its defensive function, the initiative also seeks transform agricultural land devastated in climatic shelters and public leisure spaces connected by cyclopeatonal roads. President Carlos Mazón has taken advantage of the presentation to criticize The lack of economic support from the central government, insisting that it is “a matter of state” that the Generalitat is facing “practically alone.” Next steps. The 2026 regional budgets will include an initial game of two million euros for the development of the project. The Generalitat will also explore European financing and public-private collaboration through CO2 emission compensation mechanisms. The Plan has the technical support of the Polytechnic University of Valencia and the Center for Environmental Studies of the Mediterranean, although there is still no specific date for the execution of the project. Lessons learned. The Dana showed problems that came long. Decades of construction in flood risk areascareless ravines and Lack of infrastructure They were some of the ingredients that ended up magnifying the tragedy. Criticism also pointed to alert managementwith Mazón in the main focus. This new plan seeks to turn the situation by creating spaces where water can run safely.

This is what Hollywood saturation model seeks

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

We know that feeling: Pedro Pascal seems to be appearing in all the films of the world. In all important, at least: you just saw it in ‘The Last of Us‘And you already have it in’The fantastic 4‘. And within nothing, in the movie of ‘The Mandalorian‘. And the worst thing is not that it comes out in movies and series, it is that it continually jumps on the Internet: microvideos, spots, interviews, viral. And paradoxically, guilt is not yours, but how Hollywood works today. An busy man. Let us recognize that Pascal is an authentic stove of acting, and since he rose in ‘Narcos’, he has not stopped chaining important roles: from 2019, ‘The Mandalorian’ (although he did not see his face), three series in 2021, ‘The last of us’ since 2023. And in cinema, three films in 2022, five in 2024 ‘Gladiator II‘), three in 2025 (the new of Ari Aster, the commented – Spain arrives in August -‘ materialistic ‘and the aforementioned’ the fantastic 4). And for at least 2026, he plans his interventions in the Star Wars and Marvel franchises. Why everywhere. Pascal’s career lives a “global star” effect thanks to being present in those three great franchises of the moment (Marvel, ‘Star Wars’ and ‘The Last of Us’). Thus it has become one of the most recognizable and popular faces of the industry, and it is not the result of chance, but a combination of indisputable talent and a natural charism that makes him connect with the audience both on screen and outside it (that’s why we are also seeing it in ads such as Apple’s directed by Spike Jonze). His sense of humor It has generated genuine empathy, contributing to a nearby image. Franchise world. Hollywood lives immersed in a production model that tries to reduce financial risks by force of Set off any glimpse of experimentation. The huge production costs force great studies to focus on established franchises, something that the box office supports with results as clear as last year, where The ten higher films were all sequelsremakes and derivatives. And therefore, actors like Pedro Pascal They become omnipresent: They embody characters in these universes and acquire enormous visibility by becoming key pieces. Saturation logic. The promotion of these franchises has evolved towards a model of Constant presence in all channels. Studies use aggressive strategies (Fragmented interviewsstaggered content launches, incessant activity in social networks like Tiktok, Instagram and YouTube) … what makes The public can perceive that they are receiving without stop stimuli related to franchises. The great injured are actors like Pedro Pascal, giving the feeling of appearing everywhere but unable to control that cadence. Lack of relief. Parallel to this logic of maximizing the exposure of the IP to keep it alive we have another phenomenon: there are no generational relays among the interpreters. Of course, there are new young actors, but many young actors They leave the industry due to lack of opportunities. The Post-pandemic austerity policy It prevents us from living phenomena such as those of the 80s, the 90s or the first two thousands, when they walked from young actors led each generation. As a producer affirms in This article The Hollywood Reporter, “Hollywood has spent too much time making franchises the star instead of building the next talent generation. We have not encouraged writers to create vehicles that generate stars.” The lack of risk on the part of the producers also affects this issue: they want the delivery to be full of safe values, without space for doubts. Always the same, always Pedro Pascal. Header | Disney In Xataka | The figures suggest that the domain of blockbusters in Hollywood is not over. In fact, it will go worse

Openai and Oracle prepare a brutal data center with 2 million chips for ia

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

The plan ‘Stargate’ It is the great bet of the government led by Donald Trump to keep the US at the head of development in artificial intelligence (AI). When this project was made public on January 22, it hit the economic endowment that would make it possible: nothing less than 500,000 million dollars. This money will leave the coffers of the Japanese investment group SoftBank; of those of OpenAI, the creators of Chatgpt; of those of Oracle, and, finally, it will also be provided by the investment firm Emiraratí MGX. These companies will support the construction during the next four years of an advanced network of data centers that will house the high performance computing infrastructure necessary to sustain US leadership in the AI field. The spearhead of these facilities is already being built in Texas (USA), in a town called Abilene. And it is colossal. In fact, this first data center of the ‘Stargate’ project will bring together, According to OpenAimore than two million chips for ia. 4.5 GW Dan for a lot When the US government announced to Bombo y S pay this plan left a great question open: how did he plan to solve the supply of electricity required by the new facilities? Large data centers for AI consume a lot of electricity, which has caused Some technology have opted for investing in nuclear centrals to guarantee the supply of electricity that these facilities require. Oracle began to install the first ‘racks’ with NVIDIA B200 platform servers in June At the moment this question is not completely resolved. And it is not because the ‘Stargate’ infrastructure should be completely ready before President Trump’s current mandate expires, and a new nuclear power plant can hardly come into operation in four years. Even so, Openai and Oracle have formalized A few hours ago they have reached an agreement to build the necessary infrastructure to Deliver additional 4.5 GW to your data centers. Interestingly, SoftBank does not participate in the financing of this expansion, although, as I mentioned a few lines above, it does in the ‘Stargate’ project. According to OpenAia part of the gigantic Abilene data center is already in operation. In fact, Oracle began installing the first racks With platform servers B200 of NVIDIA In June. It is surprising that in just six months a part of this installation is already active, but it is important that we do not overlook that the Abilene data center seeks to demonstrate that the ‘Stargate’ plan is viable within the deadline that those responsible have promised. Anyway, in this equation there is another unknown that also has a lot to say: China. “We hope that China significantly increase its investments in AI and semiconductors in response to the US domain in AI,” CBM consultancy analysts foresee. It makes sense. These two great powers world supremacy are being disputedso it is understandable that each significant step that give one of the two Receive a more or less overwhelming answer from the other. We can be sure that 2025 will be an even more agitated year than 2024 in the geopolitical and technological fields, so we will be attentive to the steps that US and China will surely give.

The Xiaomi CEO came out in a video showing a new product and sold out in minutes. It was a cat carrier

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

To exhaust products in minutes is something that Xiaomi has enough experience. More than a decade ago already They got it with their mobiles And currently your star product are cars; They recently sold 200,000 units of Xiaomi Yu7 in three minutes. The last product that have exhausted just put it on sale has not been technological, but something much simpler: a cat carrier. Exhausted. They tell it in Following The Yuan. After the publication of A video in which we see Lei Jun showing the cat bagThe brand had to hang the exhausted poster in just a few minutes. The bag-transport cost only 199 yuan, which to the current exchange is about 23 euros, and was put on sale as an accessory for the company’s SUV, the company, the Xiaomi Yu7. Designed by cat owners. In the video, Lei Jun tells that the transport has been designed in collaboration with brand employees who have cats. It emphasizes that it has a spacious interior, ventilation grilles on both sides and a transparent window at the top. It also has a pocket on the side. The truth is that, although the design seems very careful, it has nothing super -revolutionary, it is a fairly normal cloth transport. It doesn’t matter, that has not prevented them from running out. For the car. As we said, Xiaomi has promoted this new cat bag as an accessory for Xiaomi Yu7. The car has the possibility of activating a “pet mode” which consists in the installation of a camera in the rearview mirror that allows us to control pets and also has a speaker so that we can talk to them. In addition, by activating this mode the air conditioning continues to work so that they do not pass heat (or cold, it depends). It is not the only brand that offers something like that, others like Tesla either Mercedes They also have it. Pets like target. We have more and more pets and also They occupy a more privileged position in families. China does not get rid. To the current rhythm, it is expected that by the end of the decade Pets exceed children under 4 years. Given this, more and more technological companies that enter the growing segment of pets. Xiaomi launched The connected feeder and source that we already analyzed in Xataka And we have seen other connected products such as this curious Cat quantifying bracelet.

The bird to Andalusia has stopped again. This time he has touched Malaga in an July to forget at high speed

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

The president of Renfe, Álvaro Fernández Heredia said, just a few days ago that Renfe “tried not to leave anyone behind.” Only a few months ago, Oscar Puente, Minister of Transportation, took a breast out of the company’s punctuality. Yesterday, the high speed line in Malaga suffered delays again. It is the last case in a summer that seems to accumulate problems. The latest. The detachment of a vault and water leaks. That is the reason why the bird was delayed yesterday on its way to Malaga. They point out in The worldthat the problem was in an aquifer that borders the tunnel and that caused the filtering of water. Quickly, Adif went out to make clear that the structure of the tunnel and official sources were not compromised indicated to local media as South newspaper that no cut in the line had occurred or the passengers had to be evacuated. Everything was solved taking the trains to the farthest path of the affected wall. “Minimum affectation”. With these words, according to COPERenfe defined the impact that this last incidence has had. The company assured that the delay did not exceed half an hour and that it was because the trains had to circulate at low speed and in a unique way. For the Popular Party it is a “negligent action” that should force Pedro Sánchez, president of the Government, to face. Beyond political proclamations, the truth is that the Malaga case is the last one of a summer in which Adif and Renfe are focusing the debate on the reliability of their service. Click on the image to go to the original tweet The eyes set in Adif. The involvement in the high speed line was taken yesterday by Renfe but also ouigo and Iro. It has been in Adif in whom they have put their eyes since they are responsible for the maintenance of the roads. In fact, in Malaga today They remember that that of the aquifer is a problem that has been maintained since 2005 when the works “pricked” the same and since then Adif pays compensation to the neighbors for the damages caused. José Ramón Carmona, general secretary of the PP of Malaga, pointed out that the problem is the “investment abandonment and the absence of maintenance in the rail network that entails a serious infrastructure degradation.” The situation is delicate because the leaks of these aquifers directly affect the Abdalajís Valley, where the tunnel was built. They explain in eldiario.es That the tunnel was built with a stagnant lining, formed by a reinforced concrete ring inside by prefabricated dovelas. It has a thickness of 35 centimeters and concrete of different resistance was used in two different sections to avoid leaks while releasing the pressure that water can cause. A summer to forget. Adif claims begin to be constant in a summer that is being to forget. The most controversial case focused the looks the first days of July when A train was stopped 13 hours On the tracks, without assistance and with an old woman who ended at the hospital. So, The Government and Adif They pointed out that the problem was originated by an ouigo train whose fault resulted in a domino effect that ended with the Renfe train abandoned to its fate. In Ouigo they pointed that nothing would have happened if Adif had maintained the facilities correctly. And Adif defended himself by ensuring that they would put an ongoing plan to solve the possible problems in their catenaries. Days later, A train stopped In Toledo for a problem in the infrastructure, which once again stopped travel between Madrid and Andalusia. Beyond Adif. To problems directly linked to Adif, other incidents that have stopped circulation in recent months or weeks must be added. We have had delays and cancellations for uncontrollable phenomena such as torrential rains either Fire next to the tracks But also for him copper theft which came to derive in the collapse of the Andalusian bird and in the accusation of Boicot by Óscar Puente, Minister of Transportation. Balls out. In spite of everything, the leaders of Renfe and the bridge itself have long since defended that the train situation is not as bad as we imagine (or we see). RENFE President himself He presumed days agopointing out that the company is among the best in Europe and criticized those who defined the last days as “rail chaos”. In December 2024, Bridge defended exactly the same in a session in the Congress of Deputies. The truth is that passengers do not seem to see it like this and have negatively highlighted Renfe’s performance in recent months. Renfe also has expanded the times To return the money in case of delay. And in The confidential They collected how delays in high Spanish speed have shot themselves in recent years.

There are more and more people summarizing books with chatgpt instead of reading them: Welcome to the era of post-alfabetization

July 23, 2025 by usatoday24

@alz_zyd_ In X: Spending an hour asking Chatgpt about Adam Smith generally teaches you the triple to spend an hour reading ‘the richness of nations’. University students use because it is a better and more efficient way to learn. The comment of Doug Henwood: We have fully entered postalfabetization and this is really alarming. They talk about A silent transformation but quite fast and, apparently, massive: Students have discovered that they can “read” ‘The richness of nations‘, The academic manual of economy par excellence, talking with Chatgpt. According to the first – University Professor – an hour of dialogue gives them more processable information than weeks battling with Adam Smith’s original. Efficiency is overwhelming. In Xataka The new illiteracy has nothing to do with knowing how to read or write: it is to use AI as an oracle instead of as a tool AND Many students are adopting this practicesomething endorsed by Papers. They do it without fuss. They have simply found a better method to absorb complex knowledge: They load the PDF They ask for the main ideas. They throw specific questions. They ask for clarifications. They request contemporary examples. The result: Understanding the fundamentals of the economy in a fraction of the necessary time so far. The problem is that they learn to read manuals in a very different way. This cognitive mutation has been baptized by Henwood as “postalfabetization.” We continue to have the ability to read, but we have outsourced intellectual digestion. As with spatial orientation and the use of GPS, we are delegating a basic brain function at AI. From this There was already talk More than fifteen years ago. Deep reading It demands mental resistancetolerance to ambiguity, gradual construction of criteria. Chatgpt Instead, it offers instant clarity and immediate synthesis. {“Videid”: “X9N4GWC”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “OpenAi has presented chatgpt agent”, “Tag”: “chatgpt”, “duration”: “47”} The generation that grows with this practice will develop other cognitive skills: On the one hand, higher processing speed, better synthesis capacity, perhaps broader conceptual connections. On the other, a huge dependence on algorithmic intermediary. When all the information comes pre-processed, the muscle of critical thought ends up atrophy. Postalfabetization is surely inevitable, probably irreversible. Those who dominate both modes – traditional lift, dialogue with AI – will have an advantage. The rest will be trapped in their own efficiency: brilliant on the surface but vulnerable in depth.
