Ghibli -style images have firing the chatgpt phenomenon again

You probably remember that moment in the late 2022 in which Chatgpt broke into the scene. An application created by a practically unknown startup allowed, for the first time, to maintain a fluid conversation with an AI. We could ask him to write a story, review a text or explain string theory. At a time when the industry seemed to advance with incremental improvements, without great surprises, Chatgpt’s irruption was an unexpected turn. And yes, he caught everyone with the Guardian. Because, as happens so many times, when a technology catches us, we run in mass towards it. The chatgpt phenomenon was no exception. He only needed five days to reach one million users. A shocking figure if we compare it with other technological giants: Netflix took three and a half yearsTwitter two years, Facebook ten months and Instagram two and a half months. Now, Openai is news again: he has done it again, overcoming his own popularity records. Click to see the original message in x The person in charge of announcing the new milestone was Sam Altman himself. “The launch of Chatgpt 26 months ago was one of the most crazy viral moments I have ever seen, and we added a million users in five days. We just added one million in the last hour,” The OpenAi CEO wrote in a message posted on X on March 31. There are very few services capable of receiving such an avalanche of users in such a short time. One of the closest cases starred in Goal with Threads, Your alternative to Twitter, which added two million users in just two hours. Of course, the context was different: direct integration with Instagram greatly facilitated this mission. But not everything stays in the official data. Analysis signatures such as Tower Sensor also reflect the huge growth of Chatgpt. According to your estimatesapplication downloads increased by 11% last week, while the number of active users grew by 5%, with subscriptions by increasing 6% in the same period. When technology connects with the public It is no secret that artificial intelligence has evolved at high speed in the last two years. However, they are not always the most sophisticated technical advances – Those that seek greater performance, solve complex problems or democratize access to reasoning models – those that manage to connect with the general public. Generally, what moves us is on another plane: nostalgia, art, humor. Or, directly, the memes. And it is precisely where the last of Openai has found his hole in everyday life. Exactly seven days ago, Chatgpt was updated With a new function: an integrated image generator, driven by the multimodal model GPT-4O. One of the many scenes recreated with chatgpt Although GPT-4O was already present in ChatgPT-we met last year-until now he stood out for his skills in text generation and computer vision. But It did not generate images. That has changed with this latest update, which, curiously, is especially good when recreating images in very recognizable styles. In Spain, as in other parts of the world, users soon took advantage of the novelty to unleash creativity. They began to recreate iconic images In the purest Studio Ghibli style, transform vacations in scenes built with Lego pieces or convert real portraits into versions of Muppets or in detailed illustrations Pixel art. But not everything is so idyllic. Fever for the new ability to generate images in ChatgPT has been accompanied by two factors that, although less visible, are not minor. The first has to do with The infrastructure: demand has been so high that OpenAI delayed deployment for free users and impulse use limits. In addition, the question of visual styles is not exempt from controversy. As users experience with recreations inspired by very recognizable creative universes, a debate has been on the table that has been around the development of artificial intelligence: how have these models learn? The answer, although not always transparent, points in an awkward direction. Many of these models, including the one that drives this function in chatgpt, They have trained with large volumes of images available on the network, Many of them protected by copyright. This, once, is a point of tension between technological and authors.

China controls the solar energy supply chain. Europe wants to change it with a huge factory in Asturias

If you had ever thought about how form a solar panel Your process is not easy. This puzzle that passes from a Fine wafer to photovoltaic He has all his framework. Asturias will begin to manufacture this small piece, which is essential for its operation. The heart of a panel. A Catalan company, Sunwafebacked by Innoenergy, are in the process of building the first large bullion factory and wafer for photovoltaic solar panels in Spain. To do this, he has obtained an aid of 199 million euros from the Ministry of Ecological Transition, aimed at supporting this installation in Gijón, As Efe has had access. The company has obtained both public and private financing to develop this project. In fact, he has received one of the largest subsidies in the State in Asturias, within the framework of the government’s renewal call, which allocated 297.3 million euros to key projects in renewable energy, According to the trade. The first piece of puzzle. In this puzzle that is the process of manufacturing the solar panel, the plant will focus on silicon purification, its foundry to form ingots, and the subsequent cut of these bullion in thin wafers. All this and then send it to other plants with which the photovoltaic will form. As for the objective of the initiative, Sunwafe seeks to produce 2.5 billion wafers per year by 2030, which will allow you According to the voice of Asturias. The most standardized material. Solar cells They have experienced A radical transformation in recent years. In all this time, the element that dominates the sector remains silicon, since they are The standard in industries. Along the same lines, there are A boom with Perovskitas panelsbut silicon tandem cells are still the most promising for its generalized use. Zero dependencies. Today, China is the undisputed leader of solar energy export, how demonstrates an Ember study. However, this new factory raises a change in the photovoltaic value chain, reducing the dependence of this supplier and others for Spain and, in turn, the European Union, the European Union, According to RTPA. At the moment, the European Union Continue depending In much of China for the manufacture of their renewable energies, but projects like this can open a new path. An impulse for Spain. Although the country managed to close last year with a fee of Total renewable generation of 63.9%the production of materials has not yet settled after the rise of Chinese production. In this way, this new factory will become the third EU factory that will produce silicon wafers, how They have reported in New Spain. This opening in Gijón is a good example of the shy reindustrialization that institutions are looking for.

Huawei is beating income record thanks to China. It is just the beginning of his new era

Huawei has presented Your annual results report corresponding to 2024. The third smartphones manufacturer in China has achieved strong acceleration in its consumption business, with a significant increase in income, and not so good news in regards to its net benefit. But the key to Huawei’s results is not in the numbers. It is in how it is being reconvirt as a company to deal with the sanctions imposed by the United States. How is he going to Huawei. Since the Trump administration Break completely with the Chinese giant in 2019the company has drawn different action plans to rekindle its consumption business. Strategies that seem to be operating, since in 2024 Huawei increased by 38.3% the interannual income of this division, reaching a total of 339 billion yuan at the end of the year. It is the second best in income in the company’s history, behind the record reported at the end of 2019. Huawei sales last year have two main responsible: telecommunications infrastructure and the consumption area. Two pillars representing about 82% of the company’s total income. Huawei advances in semiconductor matterdodging a good part of US restrictionsnext to Strong support of the Chinese government They have significantly promoted sales. In the mobile phone market, Huawei experienced an interannual increase of 37%, while the telecommunications infrastructure division grew 4.9%, driven by the deployment of 5G networks and the start of the commercialization of 5.5g networks. Despite the record in income, Huawei’s net benefit has fallen by 28%. There is a weight of weight for it and it is good news: the company is making more investment than ever in innovation and development. Diversify, the new key to the company. Huawei plans to increase investment in R&D in the next three years to seek opportunities for growth and differentiation with respect to its competitors. The area of ​​consumption and telecommunications remains the main pillar for its income, but diversifying will be one of the keys to Huawei within three years. Huawei is making investments in new sectors, such as infrastructure for electric vehicles and renewable energy. Related to the engine scope, the company is offering automotive solutions for smart vehicles, such as ADAS and software systems. This last business grew by 474.4% last year, and projects such as Avat 11 either Luxeed S7companies that develop luxury vehicles with Huawei support and technology, are the sign that this will be one of the next income pillars for the company. The foreigner, the main barrier to overcome. The commercial war between China and the United States He has shown that the Asian country can maintain the profitability of its companies without depending on foreign partners. However, Huawei still faces difficulties to expand outside China. In Europe we are still waiting for movements such as Harmonyos Next in China, the first operating system developed 100% by Huawei outside the Android nucleus. This movement will be key to determining whether the company can consolidate its technological independence globally, depending on the partners to capture in our territory. He achieves it or not, the key is that Huawei does not need success in any other country outside his to remain profitable as a company. Although, of course, to compete with the best you have to be where the best. Image | Xataka In Xataka | The long goodbye of Huawei in Spain: of strategic partner to Technology Non Grata

How YouTube is devouring the audiovisual industry

YouTube turns twenty years old and does so exhibiting some data that proclaim its domination of the audiovisual panorama. We are not talking about the social network most seen and followed by the world: it is that the platform owned by Google is about to advance giants like Disney. At least if we attend to the forecasts of the firm specialized in Moffettnathanson market analysis. A juicy 2024. What we know so far, According to the prestigious moffettnathansonIt is that YouTube has become 2024 in the second largest company specialized in audiovisual content, with revenues of more than 54,000 million dollars. In front of her is only Disney, to which YouTube will advance in 2025 if two premises are fulfilled: that YouTube does not stop its current upward rate of income and that we only have audiovisual income (excluding other businesses, as thematic parks) of Disney. In what does win. Although in terms of YouTube benefits, the second place has, there are other aspects in which it is number one. For example, in February 2025, YouTube became, According to Nielsenat the largest -added television content source in the US. He left giants like Disney itself, in addition to Netflix, Fox, Paramount, Warner or Universal. And that renouncing to become a Netflix overflowing with its own content, that is, all based on licenses from other channels and what the content creators generate. YouTube is an essential property for Google: according to the estimate of Moffetnathanson, it could have a value of between 475,000 and 550,000 million dollars, that is, 30% of Alphabet’s total valuethe conglomerate that Google has. The youtube theme TV. Although it is only available in the United States, YouTube TV has become The largest live television service Distributed by the Internet of the country, with 8 million subscribers. It also offers content on demand, and includes programming of ABC, NBC, CBS or FOX, which makes Google proposal especially powerful in sport and news. Payment YouTube. To this are added other types of subscriptions such as the streaming of music YouTube Music and Youtube premium that among other things allows you to watch videos without ads. This same month, YouTube talked about 125 million subscribers in these two servicesMusic and Premium. It is a spectacular rise since April 2024, where it had 100 million subscribers. The spectacular income of the platform comes from both these two payment formats and TV YouTube, and according to Moffettnathanson, it still has a margin of growth when it enters the market of the market streaming on demand. The advertising business. YouTube It has also confirmed That television screen consumption has surpassed the mobile, in a seemingly counterintuitive growth but that makes two things clear. First, that advertising remains an ingredient of the business that YouTube will continue to take care (36,000 million in benefits in 2024); And second, that it is clear who their next rivals are: Netflix, Disney+ or Prime Video, once he has left behind his attempts to become a social network of short -style videos Instagram or Tiktok.

Midni promises to be another success with Midgt and my citizen folder

The digital ID is Officer from today. The Government has approved by Royal Decree the use of the MIDNI app as an official accrediting document. The alternative to the physical document follows the wake of Midgt and confirms a promising tendency: that of a successful digitalization by Spanish public bodies. First, Midgt. In 2020 the General Directorate of Traffic launched In open test phase The application Midgt. Carrying the physical driving license was no longer strictly necessary -go on having situations in which to carry it is advisable-, and the app demonstrated to fulfill its objective perfectly, in addition to allowing various types of operations related to the DGT. Even helps us avoid scams When looking for second -hand cars. Then my citizen folder. In September 2022 A surprise would come even more striking. My citizen folder was the APP of the Government of Spain that allowed Bring us the bureaucracy to the mobile screen and make A lot of efforts especially comfortable. In fact, it was not only good when it was launched, but TOcaught. And now, Midni. The last to arrive in this series of official applications It is midniwhich is developed by the National Police and will allow to prove the identity of citizens in various efforts. Initially its validity will be limited, but little by little that accreditation will extend to many more areas. Midni does not replace DNI for the moment. As Explain The Interior Minister, this application will be available tomorrow prior registration with our electronic ID and digital certificate in force. It has the same legal validity and security guarantees as the physical ID, but this digital ID is a complement to the physical and does not replace it. Good for public administration. It will still be necessary to evaluate this new app of the public administration, but the design and development of the application follows the same line as the MIDGT, using temporary QR codes to verify the intention of performing an operation and the validity of the document. It is therefore logical to think that its operation is correct, and Show that good trajectory In this type of public administration projects. But there are many pending subjects. These are three fantastic examples that things can be done well. At least, for now there have been hardly any problems and many good reviews. However, public administration in Spain has a long disaster history and criticism When digitizing procedures: what should be simple is sometimes In a nightmare Or something simply impossible. The Digital Certificate Managementfor example, many problems usually pose despite being A development Already very mature and offering Important advantages If it works. Unequal reception. The MIDGT ​​app already has more than five million downloads on Google Play Store and an average score of 1.8/5, while my citizen folder has been downloaded more than one million times from that store and its average score is 3.7/5. Theoretically the midni tool will be even more popular given the relevance of this document. As in the case of Midgt, the proposal is especially striking For those who have always wanted to do without the physical portfolio: Now they have one more excuse to do it, no doubt.

The extreme right is capturing children for its cause

The seemingly parodic scene came to share prominence with Donald Trump’s great day. During his first hours at the White House, the new president monopolized headlines with Elon Musk. The reason: all the best in front of the planet. For the richest man in the world, an act of euphoria without more. For others, a provocation of clear Nazi connotations that evidenced the turn to the extreme right from Washington. In Sweden they are seeing the echoes of situations like that. Children: Ultra Objective. I told it in an extensive Report the Guardian The weekend. Sweden is facing a worrying transformation in the panorama of the extreme right, a marked by an alarming descent in the age of the recruits, reaching children from the age of 10, especially in areas such as Värmland. Because. To understand the phenomenon, he explained Lars Stiernelöfsociologist and specialist in extremism prevention, which, promoted by the influence of figures such as Donald Trump and Elon Musk, who have popularized associated gestures To the ultra -right as described at the beginning, some minors have begun to imitate Nazi symbologies, but not because of ideology, but by simple fashion, without dimensioning their severity. This initial banalization opens the door to effective recruitment, where violent groups take advantage of the Emotional vulnerability of solitary, isolated and solid networks. Mutation of ultra -right. The British newspaper explained that although the historic Nordic resistance movement (NMR) has lost strength after its designation As a terrorist group In the United States, next to its side has emerged smaller and difficult to track, such as Aktivklubb Sverige and Gym XIV, who use social networks and Platforms like Tiktok To capture members before migrating conversations to private spaces. These organizations have faced international connections with similar networks in Europe and the United States, adopting a strategy based on the Early indoctrination and physical training for violent purposes, under the narrative of an alleged “imminent racial war.” Recruitment profile. Here is another key of movement. Unlike past decades, where strong young people predominated and with certain desires of notoriety, the current recruited are almost the opposite: vulnerable young peoplewithout social belonging and with great exposure to networks Through mobiles. This evolution has been key to feeding the loneliness and radicalization of boys who, without family or community support, find in these groups that false sensation of community and purpose. Plus: the pattern has facilitated the increase in the so -called “lonely wolves”, authors of attacks and violent acts without direct coordination, but driven by them hate doctrines. Members of the Proud Boys Leave, epicenter of the Ultra Swedish. And of all the enclaves of the European nation, the small town of Leave has become the main focus of activity of the ultra -right, hosting the Swedish headquarters of The Hammerskinsa white supremacist group prohibited in Germany, and serving as a meeting point for organizations as NMR and Visitors international, including Proud Boys. The Guardian explained that, although his presence is limited in number, his influence is significantwith training and indoctrination facilities, as was the case with Gym Club XIVrecently closed by local authorities. Racism, misogyny and hate. In addition, the speech of these groups is not limited to racism: they also promote hate towards women, the LGBTQ+ community and encourage conspiracy theories such as that of called “Great Replacement”. Here are names of characters from the called Manzhereas Andrew Tate or Swedish YouTuber Marcus Follin (The Golden One), who are presented as referents of masculinity and white resistance, normalizing extreme speeches among young people looking for identity and belonging. Digital radicalization. The path by which they sneak among the little ones is clear. The Swedish Security Service (Säpo), in fact, He has warned About the fast expansion of this radicalization Through mobile mobile and digital environments and video games, attracting minors who have not even reached adolescence. The combination of social isolation, political polarization and consumption of extremist propaganda seems to have created a fertile terrain for ascent ideological violence, normalizing hatred and threats in the public debate. A global phenomenon? Guardian ended with a Interesting reflection At the end of your report. The strengthening of the extreme Swedish right seems to be clearly framed in an international context in which figures such as Trump and Elon Musk have symbolically legitimized these movements. In this regard, researchers Like Jonathan Leman They stressed that, after the change of posture or turn of the United States In front of the ultra -right, these groups are now felt more close to the dominant speech. And although some government measures try to stop the phenomenon, such as the increase in surveillance and prevention programs, that lack of community ties, youth loneliness and the growing sophistication of digital propaganda with the help of algorithms maintain the alive threat and, perhaps worse, constantly expanding.

400 million euros for the electric car and the same as always

The Government has confirmed the renewal of the MOVES III PLAN. More than two months after Congress knocked down the decree boum in which Aids for the purchase of electric cars were collectedthe Executive has managed to extend the plan that already existed and make it retroactive. It will be available until the funds are exhausted on December 31, 2025 The latter is important because it does not leave any buyer that he has acquired his electric car in 2025 behind. Remember that the approval of a new Moves Aids continued to be approved. From here, uncertainty. To start because, adding those days of 2025, The approved aids exceeded the budgeted amount. With the successive extensions, 1,550 million euros were available but the requests added 1,579 million euros. And, secondly, because from the beginning it has been ensured that all purchases made in January, February and March of an electric car that will enter the Moves Plan (less than 45,000 euros before the application of VAT) were going to be delivered to buyers. In spite Xataka different companies. Now we know that the program continues in the same terms we had with a Temporary extension of 400 million of euros. A program that can support at a time when the registrations of this type of technology have triggered. Aids that have the challenge of being more agile The aid of the Moves III Plan, which now recover, have the following format for the purchase of a tourism: Electric and electrical car of extended autonomy (more than 90 kilometers of electric autonomy): 4,500 euros of minimum aid and 7,000 euros of help if a vehicle with more than seven years of seniority is accused. Plug -in hybrid (between 30 and 90 kilometers of electrical autonomy: 2,500 euros of minimal aid and 5,000 euros if a vehicle with more than seven years old is accused. Fuel battery (without minimal autonomy): 4,500 euros of minimum aid and 7,000 euros of help if a vehicle is accused more than seven years old. These amounts They increase by 10% When the task of the vehicle is taxi, it is purchased by a person with reduced mobility or in a municipality with less than 5,000 inhabitants. In addition, with the extension of the Moves III Plan, the 15% dismissal in the income statement for the purchase of an electric car (with a maximum of 3,000 euros. The fall in aid had arrived at the worst time because the market gave symptoms that this technology was taken off. In fact, with figures from the first quarter of the yearWe know that the electric car has grown by 64.22%, until reaching 22,028 registrations. But, above all, it has been 6.66% market share, which is a great advance for previous years where it did not pass or cost to reach 5%. It remains to know how many of these registrations were already closed before the fall in January of the Moves III Plan and are being registered now. With the registrations of the month of April we should verify If the fall of the Moves III Plan was leaving a lot of hangover in the market or purchases have continued. What we will not have is a change in the bureaucracy of aid. Asked for this, Sara Aagesen, Minister for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge, has assured that He has worked to expedite processes But aid will continue to be processed by the Autonomous Communities. The current process has been repeatedly criticized by manufacturers and buyers since the delivery of aid was delayed to the point that some clients did not see the entry of them Until more than three years old. More than a year ago than The Government promised To change this and deliver the aid as a discount that we would find when buying the car. At the moment, it has not happened.

take the wallet in your pocket

He Digital DNI is already a reality. Without alharacas or large ads, the Council of Ministers has approved the regulations that grants legal validity to this document in virtual format. It looks like a minor change, but represents the last bastion we needed to tear down to complete A silent transformation that has been taking years: the disappearance of the physical portfolio. The cash ceased to be essential, except for residual cases, first replaced by plastic and then by our smartphones. Mobile payments have been normalized so much that Bizum It has gone from being a technological curiosity to a verb of common use. Fidelization cards, formerly necessary evils that occupied space in our wallets, are now QR codes in applications. Until The driving card already has its digital version For years, with total validity. Only the DNI was left, that document that We all had “just in case”the last anchor to a tangible world that vanishes. This change brings evident advantages in security. A stolen portfolio is an immediate disaster: access to our money, to our identity, to our cards. A lost phone, protected by biometry, passwords and encryption, supposes A whore A much smaller setback. It sounds paradoxical, but that is: we deposit our trust in something intangible precisely because it is safer than the physical. Of course This freedom has its price: The absolute dependence of a battery that is not exhausted. And of a coverage that does not fail. We face the risk of being temporarily “erased” from the system if our phone goes out at the wrong time. It is the new vulnerability: We are not going to fear the porterist but 1% of battery. Portable battery manufacturers have a lot of future. Those of leather wallets may not. The digital ID thus marks the beginning of the end for an object that has accompanied humanity for centuries. The portfolio, that little container of our economic and citizen identity, It will become something optional, almost nostalgic, as traditional watches in the Smartphone era and the smart watch. It will not disappear completely – there will always be those who prefer the tangible – but their essential function will have been transferred to that other omnipresent object in our lives: the mobile phone.

Terry Pratchett was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2007. They have found signs of the disease in their 90s books

In 2007, Terry Pratchett approached Rob Wilkins, his assistant, and told him that the ‘s’ of his keyboard had disappeared. He was laughing. I thought it was a joke, an innocent. “What the hell have you done with her?” He asked. But the ‘S’ was still in the same usual place: on the keyboard. After a few months of testing, the writer knew that the only place where the ‘S’ was disappeared was his head. Postterio cortical atrophy sufferedA, a neurodegenerative disorder typically related to Alzheimer’s, which causes problems to see, to process information, to read, speak and write. He died in 2015 In a small town west of Salisbury. When does dementia begin? That basically is The question asked Thom Wilcockson and his team from the University of Laughborough. Pratchett’s case was very interesting because posterior cortical atrophy has an impact on the use of language and this man wrote a lot. So Wilcockson’s team He examined 33 Books of World Disco (29 published before 2007 and four later) to see if there was any point where the first symptoms of the disease could be identified. And it seems that. Among the first books and the last, the researchers discovered a significant decrease of number of nouns, verbs and adjectives. In addition, they found that the number of phrases increased (something that, according to researchers, fits a tendency towards simpler language). The funny thing is that the turning point was not 2007, but 1998. In that year, Pratchett published ‘The country of the end of the world‘And it is the work in which the change in trend begins to become evident. “This demonstrates a long preclinical period of dementia and the subtle deficiencies that are not always detected with traditional cognitive evidence,” Wilcockson explained. It is not the first time that the equipment uses this type of analysis. They have done it with Iris Murdoch (who also died of Alzheimer’s) and with Agatha Christie (we suspect he suffered). However, not everyone is sane with researchers. Not because they believe they are wrong, but because there are many more factors to consider. In New Scientistfor example, Rob Wilkins explained that in recent years Terry began to have a much more intense “professional life” and that prevented reviewing novels as thoroughly as previously. Be that as it may, the investigation is fascinating. Especially now, at a time when we write (and do audios) much more often than ever. Algorithms like these could dive in our emails, our WhatsApp conversations and in our social networks to identify signs of problems many years before they become evident.
