This is what is happening

If you have a PC with Windows 10 either Windows 11 And lately you have noticed that your tools to control Fans or RGB lighting They have stopped working, it could be related to a recent security detection in Windows Defender. As The Verge points outseveral users have seen how Microsoft antivirus marks these applications as a possible threat, which prevents its correct operation. A controller at the point of sight. The origin of the problem seems to be in Winring0, an access controller to the kernel that many of these tools use. In recent days, Windows Defender has begun to identify it as a “Hack Tool”, which causes related files to be quarantine and that the applications that depend on it stop working. Winring0 is one of the few free controllers with low level access to the system, but its security history is not brilliant. In 2020, he was registered as CVE-2020-14979a vulnerability that, According to Inbibeallows reading and writing in the system memory to obtain high privileges. The big question: why now? It is not clear why Windows Defender has hardened his criteria at this time regarding a problem identified years ago. A possible explanation is the reinforcement of Windows security policies after the incident with Crowdstrikewhose failure in a security update caused problems in systems around the world. It is also known that Microsoft has decided to harden the requirements for controllers. A problem that directly affects users. Winring0 block has not only caused many hardware monitoring tools to stop working, but also caused strange behaviors in some systems. Some users They have noticed That their fans began to turn at maximum speed without control after the quarantine of the controller, since the applications that managed them stopped working properly. Image shared by one of the affected users The first indications suggest that applications such as Fan Control, Steelseries Engine, OpenRGB, Free Hardware Monitor, Capframex, MSI afterburner, Omenmon, Zentimings and Panorama9 have been affected, leaving many users without the possibility of monitoring temperatures, controlling fans or managing the RGB lighting of their equipment. The developers are trapped. The developer’s dilemma is that Winring0 was a free and free solution to access low -level hardware in Windows. Some companies have chosen to withdraw and develop their own solutions, such as SignalrGB, which Winring0 replaced in 2023 with a SMBUS owner controller. However, many open source projects cannot afford to create and certify a new controller, since Microsoft demands a digital payment signature for any software that access the kernel. What options do users have? If Windows Defender has blocked any of these profits in your team, there are several alternatives: • Update the application. Some developers are working on winring0 versions. • Find alternatives. There are similar tools that do not depend on this controller. • Add an exception in Windows Defender. Some developers suggest this optionalthough it entails safety risks and is not recommended.

Work up to 80 years have seemed little

by

Bernard Arnault is, According to Forbesthe fifth largest fortune in the world with an estimated heritage at 170.5 billion dollars, achieved thanks to the Empire of Fashion and LVMH luxury products that have been presiding over for more than 25 years. It seems that the millionaire is very comfortable in position And he is not willing to release the commission’s helm. In fact, it will propose a regulatory change in LVMH statutes to continue at least nine more years. I am made a kid! According to published ReutersBernard Arnault, 76, wants to continue at the head of LVMH to 85 years. Therefore, it has proposed to expand the maximum age established in the company’s statutes. The company’s request has been transferred to the agenda of the next Board of Shareholders of LVMH that will be held on April 17 where it will vote. This is not the first time that Arnault expands the maximum age of its executive director. In 2022 the shareholders They already approved an extension Until the age of 80, with the aim of ordering his succession at the head of the luxury empire. With this decision, the French millionaire seems to want to join the club of senior octogenarian managers who decide that retirement does not go with them. In fact, when Arnault first postponed the date of his withdrawal, Warren Buffett, 94, He sent him a letter warning that 80 years was a limit too low to retire. Again, The voice of experience of buffett right. Such and as he published Fortunethe LVMH CEO is in full form And he claims not to have lowered the pace despite his age, keeping a days of 12 hours a day. The “Succession” of the Arnault The news of the possible extension of Arnault’s mandate coincides with commercial tensions between the United States and the European Union. Donald Trump, a personal friend of the French millionaire, has threatened to impose strong Tariffs to European products like wine and champagne, which would directly affect the division of LVMH wines and liquorsMoët Hennessy. Therefore, Arnault’s permanence could be related to his desire to manage these economic challenges and geopolitics effectively, taking advantage of its proximity to Trump. Although Arnault has not yet announced publicly Who will your successorthe control of the Arnault family about the Empire of LVMH is more than insured. Arnault has five children, and all of them occupy strategic management positions in the main brands of the group, as well as in the Board of Directors of the Business conglomerate. Delphine Arnault is the CEO of Christian Dior Couture, the most important brand of LVMH. Antoine Arnault is LVMH image director and has held the position of communication director of Louis Vuitton and CEO of the Male Berluti firm. Alexandre Arnault was recently appointed delegate councilor of Moët Hennessy, after having directed the Jewelry firm Tiffany & Co. and, before that, he directed the Rimowa suitcase brand. This same week, Frédéric Arnault, has been appointed director of the Italian fashion brand Loro Piana after passing through the group’s watchmaking division. The youngest brother is Jean Arnault, who is currently director of Watchmaking at Louis Vuitton. Although it is not yet clear which brother will take the reins as the company’s CEO, the Arnault family is clearly prepared to take over from the patriarch of the clan.

The first time a ship recorded an eclipse from the moon was in 1967. The second has been today

by

The blood moon is a land of blood from the lunar surface. The early morning of March 14, the Lunar Blue Ghost landizer of Firefly Aerospace He registered a solar eclipse from his unique perspective on the moon. It is the first commercial ship that achieves it. And the second in general, from the NASA Surveyor 3 probe in April 1967. Eclipse lunar, solar eclipse. In a lunar eclipse, the earth stands between the sun and the moon, projecting its shadow on the satellite, which acquires a reddish tone due to the longest wavelengths that are filtered through the atmosphere. Hence it is known as “blood moon.” From the point of view of the moon (the visible face of the moon, to be exact) is a solar eclipse. NASA’s Surveyor Lunar 3 probe was the first in register how the earth is blocking the sun to form a diamond ring, similar to the one we see from here during the total solar eclipses. The first private mission to record it. In addition to Surveyor, Apollo Missions Astronaut The Kaguya Japanese probe in 2009 They have been able to register them from the lunar orbit. But Blue Ghost has been the second ship to document a total solar eclipse from the satellite surface. Similarly, Firefly Aerospace has become the first private company to get this milestone. Not surprisingly, it is the first to have achieved a gentle in vertical, something they have tried Several companies in recent years with little success. Everything got red. The eclipse It started at 5:30 UTC on Friday. At 8:30 UTC, the ground around the ship and the surfaces of the ship itself They had acquired an intense reddish tone. At 9:30 UTC, the Blue Ghost lunar module photographed Your first diamond ring: The silhouette of the earth framed by the brightness of the sun, with a flash crowning it as a piece of goldsmiths. Firefly has been clearly victorious in one week in which another Texas company, Intuitive Machines, has tried to alunize its Nova-C ship. The landing “Athena” fell sideways and could not recharge his batteries, dying within a few hours. Blue Ghost, on the other hand, landed at first and deployed a heat probeamong other NASA experiments.

A company has created a humanoid robot of 38,000 euros and can already be reserved

by

Imagine it: A humanoid robot serves you a glass in your favorite bar, another directs traffic with millimeter precision and, in the bank or in the hospital, a human aspect welcomes you. Some even find a company in these automatons designed to look empathic. In a world in constant progress, the future seems clear: humanoid robots will be everywhere. How much is missing for this vision to come true? We do not know with certainty. Nor what unknown challenges will arise along the way. What is a fact is that the career to develop humanoids is more intense than ever. And in that global competition, With companies from the United States and China in frontthe last movement of China Ubtech Robotics does not go unnoticed. A real -scale humanoid. The Beijing and Ubtech Robotics Humanoid Robots Innovation Center have made known Tien Kung Xingzhe, a humanoid robot with dimensions similar to those of an adult. As we can see in the images, its design is quite futuristic, with a metal torso in gray and black tones, articulated arms and a head without facial features. But beyond its aesthetics, it stands out for several advantages: Advanced biomimetism. Its structure and movements are designed to imitate with great precision those of a human being, allowing him to interact more naturally with his environment. Maximum stability. It can move fluently even in complicated land such as mountains, stairs, sand or snow, without losing balance or compromising your performance. Disated to resist impacts. The key parts of the robot are manufactured with titanium alloy, which should reduce the total weight without compromising its structure. High performance and efficiency. Designed to operate with precision and stability in research environments, guaranteeing reliable and consistent results. Gran expansion capacity. It is compatible with additional modules such as depth cameras, lidar, strength sensors, collaborative arms of seven degrees of freedom and robotic hands of five fingers, which allows you to adapt to different needs. The Tien Kung Xingzhe has a bionic torso configuration and an anthropomorphic movement control system, which allows it to move with surprising fluidity. It has 20 degrees of freedom (DOF), that is, 20 articulation points that allow it to imitate with greater realism human movements. The more degrees of freedom has a robot, the more precise and natural its displacement will be. A robot for research. Despite the advances in robotics, the humanoids we have seen in science fiction are still far from reaching our homes. Therefore, Tien Kung Xingzhe is designed for the world of research. Its price, 299,000 yuan (about 38,000 euros), places it in an accessible category for development centers and universities. In line with its purpose, it has an open structure that allows access to its motor, sensors and movement control interfaces. It also includes documentation and code examples to facilitate customization and development of new applications. Do not wait too long. For those who closely follow the evolution of humanoid robotics, the Tien Kung Xingzhe is now available for early orders in China and deliveries are planned to begin in the second quarter of this year. If the deadlines are fulfilled, an Asian company could have advanced to several of the proposals that are being developed in the United States. It is true that we talk about different categories: while Kung Xingzhe is designed for research, other companies, such as Tesla with their Optimus robot, seek to produce mass humanoids for industrial tasks. However, in terms of early availability and adoption, China seems to be taking more than interesting steps.

Sweden has managed to be 100% recyclable and turn its waste into energy. Spain follows it closely

by

More than 190 million tons annuls of urban waste are generated in Europe, according to The European Waste Association. This amount of garbage has increased greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to climate change. However, to deal with recycling is not enough, but some countries have found a way to generate energy. 100% recycled. One of those countries and precursor has been Sweden, which They have found In the incineration of waste an energy source, providing heating and electricity to 250,000 homes. Energy source. The data, provided by the Swedish state company VattenfallThey have indicated that only 1% of the trash ends in landfills; The rest becomes energy through the use of biomethane. Thanks to this energy source they can generate heating, electricity and even can be used as fuel for cars. In addition, the Swedish nation is importing the waste from other European countries to produce more energy. The process. Waste management in Sweden It is done In plants Waste-to-Energy (WTE). Once there they are divided into three categories. The first is the organic garbage that is transformed into biogas, compost and fertilizers. Then the plastics that end up recycling. Finally, all non -recyclable waste is incinerated at temperatures up to 850 ° C to generate electricity and heating. And in Spain? A recent report, which has had access Infobaesaid that the Spanish nation will not meet the waste management objectives established by 2025. In it they have stressed that the waste sector is responsible for 5% of greenhouse gas emissions. But are they taking action? The central government has proposed to implement A packaging system, in which citizens will receive a refund for recycling containers. For its part, the Valencian Community will reuse The waste and mud that left the Dana, and is studying the possibility of incinerating them to generate electricity. But there was not an ace under the sleeve … Spain has A great potential To develop the biomethane industry, a renewable gas similar to natural gas that can be stored and injected into the current network. However, as indicated Cecilia Carballo for Fifodiesthe country is behind other European countries in terms of facilities. However, there is a glimpse of hope if appropriate support is given, Spain could take advantage of its ability to produce up to 160 twh per year, which would cover 50% of the national natural gas demand. For this, a robust regulatory framework and policies that foster their development are necessary.

A message has sneaked into each and every corner of Tiktok outside its theme: “Pedro Sánchez resignation”

by

It doesn’t matter if they deal with politics or other issues that little (or nothing) have to do with what happens in Moncloa, Parliament or the Council of Ministers. For days in the networks, especially in Tiktokcan be seen with some frequency A message that is repeated again and again in the comments of the videos: “Sánchez resignation.” So common is that there are even Influencers talking already of the phenomenon. The big question is: where does it come from? What happened? The news advanced her A few days ago The ‘Public Mirror’ program, in Antena 3, but is going around Tiktok to confirm it. Throughout the last days two contents that have gained some visibility can be found on that platform, enough to be generating news. One are messages that They ask for resignation of the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez. The second content is Influencers that They talk about thathow by surprise the comments to their pieces have been filled with resignation requests. Comments to a video by Dani.Valhalla on the subject. Rikomedy video about the trend, with comments with the same message. Ramontelli video with messages from “Sánchez resignation” in the comments. What exactly do they say? You can change the form, the exact words. The background no. In the messages the same idea is repeated basically: Sánchez’s resignation is requested. The curious thing is where they can be seen. They are from repeated form In comments from Videos that deal with The phenomenon; but also in others that have nothing to do with the president, the PSOE or the policy in general. Here For example there is an example in a piece of Ramontelli about music, here Another of Eufun Deibe and one more here of Peter Roadman in which we talk about the DGT and the latest statements of its general director. To a lesser extent, loose comments can also be seen in pieces of some of the main content creators in Spain, such as Ibai either Roro. There are even those who have created videos specifically for talk about, kidding either Find an explanation. And where does it come from? The million dollar question. A few days ago Ramontelli published A piece in which it relates the phenomenon to a user who began to repeat the request for resignation in different videos and generated a “snowball” effect. “It’s not a Botor anything. People I saw him and already put him in the rest of the videos, “he adds. In ‘Public Mirror’ the socialist Susana Díaz sees However “a against campaign to Sánchez.” And there is no lack of analysts who believe that the phenomenon responds to a “orchestrated” initiative by the opposition. “Almost none of this is casual.” Anita Hard video about the trend. Comments to a video of Albertosaurus dedicated to the trend. Josecafit video. Comments to a Peter Roadman post. And is that possible? What there is no doubt is that at least part of the opposition to Sánchez has taken advantage of the wave. In The same video from Ramontelli or in this other of Dani.Valhala A “Pedro Sánchez resignation can be found!” (capital letters are yours) written from the official Vox account in Tiktok. In This other Piece, which includes a parodic video, is a message in the same line published from the PP Madrid account. During an intervention in ‘Public Mirror’ Susana Díaz has even gone beyond When talking about “discredit techniques” driven by “people who are dedicating themselves to it in Spain.” And in other networks? In X the hashtag can be followed #Sánchezdimisionwith abundant publications in recent days. In YouTube There are also examples. The phenomenon arrives at a specific political moment, marked among other factors by Last agreements With Junts and The debate Around the increase in defense investment, which extends Beyond Spain and extends To the EU.

China is getting closer to overcoming NASA in its Martian mission. And just invited other countries to join

by

Mars Return’s drama. Since I arrived in Mars in 2021, NASA’s Perseverance Rover has been depositing Roca nuclei and Marciano Regolito in hermetic tubes dispersed by the red planet for your future collection. Mars Sample Return is NASA’s mission and the European Space Agency to recover those samples (38 tubes in total) and bring them to Earth. Last year, with a forecast of delays in sample return up to 2039 and an estimated budget of between 7,700 and 11,000 million dollars, NASA de facto canceled Mars Sample Return to control the cost overheads. The agency listened to alternative proposals and, at the beginning of 2025, delayed the decision for a year to Choose between two options: An internal architecture of the NASA JPL laboratory or a commercial ship of the private industry. China has taken the lead. With Mars Sample Return in suspense, China has many ballots to Become the first country to bring Martian soil samples. The launch of the Chinese mission Tianwen-3 is scheduled for 2028after Tianwen-2 launches up to an asteroid near Earth this year as proof of previous technological concept. Tianwen-3 is a simpler mission that Mars Sample Return because it would collect the samples of the landing place, instead of the carefully selected rock nuclei in different places by the Rover Perseverance. However, it has the same objectives as the NASA mission: analyze samples on Earth in search of organic substances and “biosignuras”, signs of past life. Tianwen-3 opens to other countries. The China Space Agency (CNSA) also announced that its sampling recovery mission will be open to international cooperation. Scientists and space agencies around the world can propose until June 30 scientific experiments or instruments to include in the Chinese mission. Tianwen-3 will carry 15 kg of foreign instruments on the ship that will return to the Earth with the samples and 5 kg of additional foreign instruments in the orbiter that will remain in Martian orbit. It could be the case that the European Space Agency, which already participated in Mars Sample Return with the return ship, made a proposal and ended up advancing NASA in this way. Multimillionaires to the rescue. Meanwhile, in the United States, Spacex and Blue Origin have proposed NASA to take advantage of the same ships they have in development for Artemis lunar missions (Starship and Blue Moon) with the aim of recovering Mars samples. However, Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have already received numerous public contracts, and a third millionaire, Peter Beck, CEO of the Rocket Lab’s rocket company, It has a more concrete and simple proposal. A solution of 4,000 million dollars with simple technology to bring the samples in 2031, the same year as the Chinese nave Tianwen-3 would return to the earth. Rocket Lab architecture. Three launches in total for all ships of the mission. The orbiter Mars Telecommunications Orbiter would facilitate communication between Mars and Earth. The Lander Lander Lander lands would land on the surface of Mars to collect the samples with the same supersonic aerocies and parachutes that the Martian Rovers use. The Mars Ascent Vehicle, designed as a single rocket stage, would take off towards the Martian orbit with chemical propulsion Using Electron Rutherford engines from Rocket Lab. The Earth Return Orbiter ship would collect the samples in the Martian orbit to bring them back to the earth using similar engines. The three goals of the space race. Decide what NASA decides, China is determined to take advantage of the delays of Mars Sample Return to get the symbolic victory of bringing the first samples of Mars, as has already happened with the Chang’e-6 mission and the first samples of the hidden face of the moon. At the same time, there are two other goals in the space race. The United States announced to hype and saucer that would take the first woman to the moon with the Artemis III mission (planned by 2027), but its launch has been delayed and now the architecture of every Artemis program, as well as that of Mars Sampple Return, It is in question for the numerous cost overruns of the SLS rocket and Starship’s delays. China, meanwhile, plans to reach the moon in 2030. Then, both countries will try to take the first humans to Mars. Image | POT In Xataka | NASA had marked two major short -term objectives.

Tesla mired in chaos, x fall, starship exploiting and other successive misfortunes

by

We are all likely to have A bad daybut when you are someone with So many open fronts Like Elon Musk, a series of chained misfortunes can turn a bad day into A terrible week in which the entire universe conspires against you. Wall Street and the street against Tesla. Tesla has become the Objective of protests against the role of his CEO at the head of the cuts in the Trump administration. The week began with investors hardly punishing the value of Tesla’s shares that 15% collapsed Only last Monday. As the days have passed, investors have been relaxing their movements giving a break to the manufacturer who He is recovering part of the lost in recent days. However, Tesla’s actions have not been the only target of protests. According The published by ABC Newssome vehicle facilities of Tesla have suffered attacks and vandalism, generating concern about the safety and image of the brand. Donald Trump himself highlighted the escalation of Protests towards the brand qualifying protesters as “domestic terrorists.” “If you do it to Tesla or any other company, we will catch you and go through a hell,” said Trump in collected statements by the BBC. X suffered a cyber attack. X has become the main speaker of Elon Musk and much of the US government, as Marco Rubio, which Use the social network to make public your institutional agenda. In that context, the social network experiment successive traffic falls during May 11. Elon Musk soon pronounced announcing that X was suffering a cyber attack. “There were (there are still) a massive cyber attack against X. They attack us every day, but in this case many resources were used. It is a large and coordinated group or a country,” wrote The millionaire in his social network. According to published Wired, the cyber attack was claimed from Telegram by the Proportian hacker group Dark Storm Team. However, after an analysis of the traffic that generated the attack, the experts denied that Ukraine was behind him, like Musk said In an interview. The researchers They concludedthat not all X servers had safety layers against these ddos ​​cyberbrains Cloudflareso they were exposed. Starship has flown, but not as he wanted. The prelude to a disastrous week for Elon Musk was the Eighth flight failure Starship proof, which followed the same path as its predecessor disintegrating over the Atlantic. As happened with the seventh flight test, after the explosion the fragments of the ship fell generating a rain of debris that interrupted air traffic of Florida and a good part of the Caribbean, affecting more than 240 commercial flights. As if that were not enough, Musk has seen how, 40 minutes from the take-off of the CREW-10 mission that was going to put a relief team for ISS and Bring back to astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, which They were trapped In the International Station after a failure in The Boeing Starliner I had to bring them back. If everything goes as planned, the Falcon 9 that will put the Dragon and its orbit crew will take off on March 14. Chief problems: tensions in Washington. Elon Musk’s influence on Trump administration also seems to be supporting many pressures. One of the most revealing events was the tense encounter between Elon Musk and key figures of the Republican Party, including former president Donald Trump and Senator Marco Rubio during a meeting at the White House on the Doge cuts policy. According to him Published article by The New York TimesMusk proposed significantly cutting the budgets for specific federal programs, including those related to the Department of Transportation. Marco Rubio, Florida senator, openly criticized Musk, describing his proposals as “ignorant” and arguing that Musk I was prioritizing corporate interests instead of the needs of citizens.

Instead of cars they will produce tanks

by

To economic pressures and commercial confrontations, an element has been joined that has ended up dynamiting the already convulsive geopolitics in the old continent. Russian invasion in Ukraine and that Chess game that is fought with the arrival of Trump made Europe speak A few days ago “Rearme”understanding itself as the need to invest again in “security” for what can happen. It was not a lantern, and Germany has already begun. Ahead of VW at the pace of tanks. Few data to understand what is happening as the one offered this week. Rheinmetallthe largest defense contractor in Germany, has overcome value Market to Volkswagen, the company with the highest income in Europe, reflecting a structural change in the German economy towards a greater investment in the military industry. While Volkswagen Face challenges In demand, reduction of foreign costs and competition, Rheinmetall has tripled its value from Donald Trump’s choice as president of the United States promoted by the expectation of an increase in European military spending. Trump’s position to distance Washington from his role as guarantor of Western security has encouraged That “rearme” of NATOgenerating a boom in the European defense industry. From car factory to tanks. And as a great symbol of that German industrial change, Volkswagen and Rheinmetall are negotiating an agreement that until a few years ago would have seemed a real dystopia: The sale of the Osnabrück plant that Volkswagen plans as part of its restructuring. Although Rheinmetall’s CEO, Armin Papperger, has indicated that it has not yet been closed, he has talked about using the plant To manufacture tanks and other military systems, thus avoiding the costs of building a new installation. Moreover, it would not be the first or the only factory they are buying. More factories. Because Rheinmetall is in the process of reconverting two other automotive plants In Germany for the production of military equipment, reflecting the impact of the increase in defense expenditure in the region. Apparently, two Berlin and Neuss factories, currently dedicated to the production of auto parts, will be redirected to the Rheinmetall weapons and ammunition division, although They will still keep a part of its capacity for automotive manufacturing. This transition illustrates how few the weakness of the German sector and the rise of military spending are redefining the industrial landscape of the nation. One More Thing. Recently, the Defense Group Knds announced the acquisition of A plant in eastern Germanypreviously operated by the French Alstom, for the manufacture of Leopard 2 tanks and combat vehicles Puma. These conversions, again, show a change in approach to German manufacturing, where industrial infrastructures are being reconfigured for military production. The decline of a sector. It We have counted before. Historically, Germany has been a pillar of the global automotive industry, with Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes-Benz as sector giants. However, the combination of factors such as cost up for the War in Ukrainethe Chinese competitionthe demand drop and the slower adoption The expected of electric vehicles (EVS) has significantly weakened the industry. Volkswagen, who in 2023 headed the Fortune 500 Europe With 348 billion dollars In income, he has seen how its market value has fallen to only 60 billion, placing it in position 46 among the most valuable companies on the continent. The company has also had a Hard battle with unions which has resulted in production reductions and template cuts To mitigate your losses. Meanwhile, defense manufacturers such as Rheinmetall have seen their orders and their market value grow exponentially. The impact of military spending. All this culture broth has led the European Union to design a plan to rear. 800 million euros. Germany, meanwhile, has taken even more aggressive measures, allocating 500 million dollars to the modernization of infrastructure and flexible its indebtedness policy to exclude spending in defense of its strict fiscal limits. In total, the country could invest up to 1.3 billion dollars In economic measures, many of which will be linked to the military industry. Hence, the unprecedented impulse in European military spending has benefited defense contractors like Rheinmetall, Thales and Bae Systemswhose valuations have grown significantly. The demand for military team has led to an increase in the production of, for example, tanks, artillery systems and ammunition, reinforcing the German tendency towards a war economy. A challenge. Thus, while the (until nothing) almighty Volkswagen struggles for survive the crisis That the sector lives, the defense industry has become the unexpected growth engine of the German industry and seems to become the symbol and shuttle of That European “rearme” which is presented as a key challenge for the old continent.

China’s robots represent an existential threat to the US, according to semi -health experts

by

“This is a call to action for the US and West. We are on the threshold of a non -linear transformation of The industrial societybut the basis on which US is intense is unstable. Automation and robotics They are going through a revolution which will allow the total automation of all strategic and manufacturing industries. These Smart robotic systems They will be the first industrial piece that will not be complementary, but completely additive: work 24/7 with a performance higher than any human being (…) “. “Currently the only country positioned to capture this level of automation is China, and, if it achieves it without the US to follow the same path, the expansion of production will be exclusive to China, which will represent an existential threat to the US when it is overcome in all its abilities.” This text is signed by Dylan Patel, Reyk Knuhttsen, Niko Ciminelli, Jeremie Eliahou Ontiveros, Joe Ryu and Robert Ghilduta, six experts from SEMIANALYSIS. This American consultant specializes in the analysis of the semiconductor industries and the artificial intelligence (AI), and their studies are usually reasonably accurate. China’s technological and scientific development rhythm is overwhelming The lines of the semi -toalysis report that I just mentioned contain a lot of interesting information, but without a doubt the most forceful reflection of how many they put on the table is none other than the great capacity that China has in the technological, scientific, and, of course, economic. It is evident that they all go hand in hand, but this attention call will hardly take off the US administrations and Western countries. We can be sure that their slow reflexes is not caused by ignorance. China has the necessary capacity and resources to dispute its world leadership position to the US The US government led by Joe Biden openly recognized the document that collects its National Security Strategy October 2022 that China has the necessary capacity and resources To dispute the US Its world leadership position. The social, economic, military and technological development that the country led by Xi Jinping has experienced during the last two decades supports this conclusion. The following literal extract of this document reflects very clearly why the US government considers China a threat: “The Popular Republic of China (RPC) is the only competitor that has both the intention of remodeling international order and, increasingly, the economic, diplomatic, military and technological capacity to do so. Beijing has the ambition to create a wide sphere of influence in the regions of the Indian and the Pacific, as well as to become the leading world power.” These lines perfectly condense the background history that has triggered The international situation in which we are. Anyway, as we have just seen, semi -health experts emphasize the development of robotics and automation technologies in China. In their text they do not speak of the possibility that the country of Xi Jinping use Robots for military applications; What they maintain is that this technology represents an existential threat to the US Due to its ability to radically transform the industrial model of which not only the country currently led by Donald Trump, but also Japan, South Korea, Taiwan or a good part of European countries, among other nations. At the current situation, staying behind in strategic field like this is not an option.
