400 kilometers loads in five minutes of ByD are as impressive as it is not very useful. At least they think of Mercedes

“Probably, no.” With that forceful response, Andrew Cornelia, CEO of Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging and therefore the head of the company’s recharge systems, explained his opinion on the Awesome recharge system presented by byd A few days ago. The answer has arrived in Plugged-in podcastthe radio space of Insideevs. There, Cornelia explained that the exercise for having such a rapid recharge under the arm obeys the need to give a backup to users than to the real utility of the same. The origin of these comments must be sought in the presentation of ByD a few days ago. The company confirmed that it has two cars ready and a load platform that allows recharging up to 400 kilometers of autonomy in five minutes. They get it, on paper, Delivering 1 MWh of sustained power. At the time we explain that it would be necessary to do to what extent it is true to recharge 400 real kilometers in five minutes. Keep in mind that the Chinese homologation cycle is much more lax than the European WLTP that, in fact, It does not completely reflect consumption From electric cars at highway speeds 120-130 km/h in the vast majority of European countries. With such a power, yes, the data is almost irrelevant because to fill 400 kilometers in five minutes it is possible that very little more time is needed. Of course, you have to have some conditions into account. The first is that, Assuming a consumption of 20 kWh/100 kma figure that is not especially good or exceptionally high, it would be necessary to fill the battery with 80 kW to make those 400 real kilometers of autonomy. This implies that a much larger battery is needed. Keep in mind that the loading power decays substantially when the battery goes from 80% capacity to protect from excessive degradation. The usual thing is that the cargo peak arrives, at least, after the first 10%. Therefore, filling 80 kW from 10 to 80% of the battery capacity would imply having about 115 kWh capacity under the body. In addition, the charger must be able to supply this power during those five minutes without resenting the least. The load should be, at least with a power of 960 kW. An absolutely unknown figure currently in European loaders. For Mercedes it makes no sense And they are probably right. Although those 400 kilometers of autonomy in five minutes sound especially good, what they say in Mercedes is that a stop to fill a gas tank involves stopping about 10-12 minutes on average. And that is where you have to point. In order to load that amount of kilometers, huge infrastructure is needed around each electric car. Byd will have to display your own loaders And only a few cars can assume that stream of electrical power. To get an idea, a Tesla Model and Juniper It has the capacity to recharge its batteries at 270 kW (about three times) and a Porsche Taycan, one of the models with the best figures on the market, “only” admits 320 kW of power in a recharge. With 320 kW of power, Porsche Taycan only needs 18 minutes to move from 0% battery to 80%. With that 80% battery, which has a useful capacity of 97 kWh, it should be able to make the aforementioned 400 real kilometers. If we add that the driver will never arrive with 0% battery to the load point … it is expected that with the appropriate charger the Porsche Taycan receives that amount of energy in 15 minutes more or less. According to Mercedes accounts, there is hardly any difference with what would take time to fill the deposit. In fact, I encourage anyone to think how long it takes to make a stop during a long trip with a combustion car. I do not talk about sitting down to eat, maybe or to ask for coffee, enough to go to the bathroom. I doubt that the driver has to “wait for the car” in that case, it is very likely that little by stretching his legs he has the battery ready to continue again. And we are not talking about 200 kilometers, we talk about replenishing 400 kilometers in just over 10 minutes. However, Mercedes gives relevance to the development of this type of rapid recharges. “It’s key,” says Cornelia in the podcast. “It’s an amazing advance, The industry will follow its example“, But stressed that” there is only a limited number of use cases in which such a fast recharge really makes sense (…) If you go to the cinema, you do not need a 1,000 kW load. You need something that lasts two hours. If you go to a cafeteria, you may want something faster, but it is still a 15 -minute stop to enter and leave. “ In spite of everything mentioned above and although Mercedes has recognized us That they prefer to focus on efficiency and low consumption or a greater and better density of their batteries, it is true that Byd’s advance is very interesting. First for the company that allows you to have an added value in the process of purchase of the next electric car of a potential customer, As the Tesla charger has meant in the United States. But, also because it offers support and security to the customer. You may never use it very counted throughout the useful life of the vehicle. What happens with these extremely powerful chargers is the same that happens with the Autonomies of 1,000 kilometers In an electric car (exist or not). In practice they are not necessary but help strengthen the security of those who adopt the new technology because blur your barriers With what it is to drive a combustion car. In spite of everything, one thing must be very clear. Until now, what is presented by ByD is an advance for China with two very specific models, it is not something that will reach Europe … Read more

Nintendo Switch 2 will have “Key cards”. And the big question is what it is for the future of physical format

On June 5 it will be launched Nintendo Switch 2. In a one -hour event, the Japanese company has Clear almost all doubts That there was on its new console, but beyond being a celebration and although the presentation has been an avalanche of games, the aftertaste that has left among users is bittersweet. Nintendo Switch 2 will be retrocompatible with Siwtch 1 game cards, but to enjoy improvements We will have to pay. The price of the console will start from 470 euros in Europe (but in Japan it will be much cheaper so that more people can buy it, saying by Nintendo). And physical games They already go to 90 euros. In social networks, the conversation revolves around something else: the ‘Key or’ Game Key Card ‘Nintendo Switch 2. And it is a concept … controversial, at least. The “Key Key Card ‘Game Cards” Nintendo Switch 2 During the presentation, there were elements that Nintendo did not detail. For example, to know the price we had to enter the Nintendo Store, the same for the price of the games. And when he talked about the formats, the company just said two things: That the game cards will be the same size as those of Switch, but will be red and will read data at a higher speed. That normal microSD cards will not be compatible, since it will be necessary to buy microSD Express cards that read data at a speed, again. It is logical, because more demanding games at the visual level need storage support with a higher reading speed to be able to do streaming of data without interruptions. What did not say anything is one of the ‘game key cards’. Again, it is after the presentation when we find out about this matter, and it is the one that is raising blisters among users on social networks. In the Nintendo Support Pagethey say the following about this third alternative format to the physicist and digital: Game key cards are different from normal game cards since they do not contain complete game data. Instead, the game key card is your “key” to download the full game to your console through the Internet. After completing the download, you can insert the game key on your console and play as you do with a normal physical game card. They also show an example of the notice that will be in the physical cover: The operation is simple: we buy a box with this cartridge-lave, we introduce it in the console and we are given the possibility of downloading the game associated with it. The cartridge has no informationso the game is saved in the MicroSD Express that we have bought separately and will be from where it is executed. When we want to play that game, we will have to put the corresponding cartridge-lave, be connected to the Internet the first time we start it (subsequent starts do not need the Internet, but the cartridge-llave is already playing. It is a mixture between physical card and digital game. What is the point? The only one that occurs to me is that it is for games that have a higher weight to the maximum of the game cards or for small editors who want to have physical pretence in stores (although more caught with tweezers this). But of course, it also gives rise to another interpretation: Nintendo kills the conventional physical format. . Too much fog, but with precedents on switch Nintendo says clearly: “The game key cards are different from normal game cards, since they do not contain the complete game data” and “This is a box of a game key.” There are no need to clarify it, but these phrases would imply that, on the one hand, the normal game cards will be and, on the other, the key cards. There will be games that come inside the card and others whose card is simply an ‘activator’ For the game that you download from the eShop. Nintendo has said that Siwtch 2 game cards have a higher reading speed. If they are just an activator, it wouldn’t make sense, right? Supporting this theory, we have ‘Cyberpunk 2077’. Your responsible They affirm The following: “Nintendo Switch 2 owners can buy the game on a 64 GB game card or by digital download in the Nintendo Eshop.” The other interpretation, however, is that the “game key cards” are those of Switch 2 and the “normal game cards” those of Switch 1, which would imply a death of the ‘pure’ physical format on the new machine. And that is why it is mandatory to use MicroSD Express cards in Switch 2, because everything will go on them. That is the reading that is being done in networks and the one that gives rise to the company itself due to the diffuse messages. Currently, Nintendo already offers boxes that do not wear the game. An example is the ‘code in a box’ like that of ‘It Takes Two‘ either ‘Final Fantasy VII‘, Boxes that are in physical format, but do not have a game card: only a code to download them from eShop. On the other hand, titles like ‘Noire‘They have a giant notice of “requires Internet download.” I had not done the test until now, since I always had my connected switch, but I have put the game on the console, I have removed the connection to the network and … I can’t play. Basically, at least that is what it seems, that new notice of the Nintendo Switch 2 boxes makes it more clear that, or you have the Internet, or do not play that specific game. With the case of ‘La Noire’ I thought it was a certain additional content or some chapter that did not enter the ‘cartridge’. And it may be so, but the truth is that it does not let me play without downloading the data before. Other cases, such as the ‘Heritage Pack’ … Read more

The controversy of the Safe Transfer

The heavy rains of the month of March They have increased Reservoir levels. This news could be good news, but this relief It has not resolved Territorial conflicts around water. The controversy of the Tajo-Segura transfer returns again. A recurring conflict. Since its inauguration 46 years ago, the transfer has allowed water supply In the area of ​​Southeast Spanishknown for your water shortage. However, climate change and growing demand They have generated Tensions between the receiving regions and the Tagus basin, which defends the need to conserve their own resources. By regulations. The reservations in the reservoirs of the header of the Tagus, Entrepeñas and Buendía They have risen to level 1. so, According to the lawthis allows an automatic 60 Hm3 transfer to the Spanish southeast, benefiting Alicante, Murcia and Almería. According to Valencia Plaza has advancedEntrepeñas and Buendía reservoirs have accumulated 1,395 hm3, confirming level 1 and authorizes the maximum possible transfer according to current regulations. But there will be some changes … However, the minister for ecological transition and demographic challenge, Sara Aagesen, has announced imminent changes in the operating rules of the transfer. Although it has not specified the details, the concern in the Levante is evident: they fear that these modifications will return access to water again, According to the Spanish. And return to the controversy. Again, the irrigators of Alicante, Murcia and Almería have expressed their concern about the possibility that changes in the exploitation rules reduce the transfer even though the reservoirs have reached level 1, According to Valencia Plaza. In addition, Lucas Jiménez, president of the Central Irgent Union of the Tajo-Segura Aqueduct (SCRATs), has criticized in the same medium that, just when the maximum possible transfer is confirmed, the government wants to make modifications that could restrict the supply of water to the southeast. The other face. From Castilla-La Mancha, the reaction is different. According to a study to which Spanish has had accessThe Chair of the Tajo of the University of Castilla-La Mancha has stressed that, although the reservoirs have reached level 1, it is essential to ensure sustainability of water resources for local communities before transferring water to other regions. Likewise, the Minister of Sustainable Development, Mercedes Gómez, has insisted that the reservoirs of Entrepeñas and Buendía should not be maintained in a situation of “exceptionality”, as established by the current regulations of the Tajo-Segura transfer, but must go to a situation of “normality”, As explained the truth. In addition, the Manchega counselor has reiterated, that the exploitation rules of the transfer must be focused, mainly, supplying people with water, and not so much to industrial or agricultural development. In this sense, it has stressed that infrastructure has already been built in the receiving areas, Like desalinationwhich are available and have been financed by all Spanish citizens. Forecasts. The future of the transfer remains uncertain. Although current regulations allow 60 HM3 sending in April, the possible modification of the rules could alter water management in the medium term. In addition, tensions between different regions show that the problem of water distribution in Spain is still unresolved. The debate on sustainable water management and adaptation to the effects of climate change will continue to mark water policy in the coming months.

They actually signed North Korean cybercounts

Finding technological talent has become a career with more expected obstacles. For many companies, expanding their teams is no longer just a matter of publishing an offer: it is to deal with processes that often lengthen and with the possibility of not having chosen the right person. And when, finally, an incorporation closes, The high rotation of the sector threatens to return everything to the starting point. But what many companies probably do not imagine is that, without knowing, they could be hiring North Korean cybercounts. This threat, that began to gain strength in the United Stateshas begun to spread. According to Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG)the environment has become more hostile for these actors in US territory, and are now displacing their attention to Europe. A threat in Europe. GTIG details the case of one of the workers linked to North Korea, whose modus operandi reflects the usual pattern of this type of operations. This individual used at least 12 different identities to run for jobs in Europe and the United States. In addition, it resorted to other identities controlled by himself to provide false references and gain credibility to recruiters. List of countries affected by North Korea’s workers Objective companies. Although the range of companies that hire IT profiles is broad, North Korean actors have focused their efforts on very specific sectors: above all, companies linked to the industrial defense base and government agencies. To achieve this, they took advantage of the rise of remote work and infiltrated false identities carefully prepared to overcome security filters. Income for North Korea. Every time the North Korean regime exhibits a new military advance, the same question returns: Where do you really finance it? Although the data on their economy are scarce and deeply opaque, it is clear that the international sanctions have been trying to stop the war machinery of one of the most isolated and hermetic countries on the planet. There are several investigations that point to at least two revenues for the country led by Kim Jong-un. One of them is the theft of cryptocurrencies: North Korean attackers have perfected their techniques and now hit high -value international objectives. The other is the deployment of false workers, such as the one we are seeing at this time, to carry out data theft and extortion practices. Not only attempts. Real cases. Although there is no exact figure of false workers hired by European companies, the GTIG notes that it has detected a diverse portfolio of projects in the United Kingdom executed by employees linked to North Korea. Among them include web developments, bots, content management systems (CMS), advanced artificial intelligence and applied blockchain technology.

Now Trump plans to remove it discreetly, according to Politico

After the Trump’s electoral victoryElon Musk appeared as the arm executor of the “chainsier” Trump to cut waste in public administration. Just three months later, and with one controversy after anotherMusk could take a step to the side and abandon his role in front of Doge to redirects the situation of Tesla. Rumors on the output of Doge Musk. The American medium Political published an exclusive in which he claimed that Donald Trump would have communicated to his near circle the departure of Musk in front of Doge. Trump is satisfied with the work of “special government employee” that Musk has done in the administration since he arrived in the presidency in January. Despite that, he considers that it is a good time for the millionaire to return to his business and reduce the pressure that public opinion is exercising on the government for his presence in the White House. Musk and the government are racing the way. Last Thursday, In an interview of Elon Musk for Fox Newsthe millionaire claimed: “I think we will have completed most of the work necessary to reduce the deficit in a billion dollars within that period.” On the other hand, the head of Communication of the White House, Karoline Leavitt, assured in a publication since Your profile in X that: “Elon Musk and President Trump have publicly declared that Elon will leave the public service as a special government employee when he completes his incredible work in Doge”, while showing his rejection for the information published in Political. Plus a ballast than an ally. Trump’s imminent withdrawal as Trump’s right -handed hand arises at a time when some members of Trump’s government cabinet see Musk more as a political ballast than as an asset. According to sources cited by PoliticalTrump could take advantage of the end of the 130 days of validity of the special status granted to the millionaire to make the transition and keep it discreetly from the political sphere. These tensions within the Republicans were revealed with the heated conversation between several Trump cabinet members in the White House. Among them that Marco Rubio was, who reproached Musk for the methods used by Doge when cutting in certain strategic departmentsas published The New York Times. The drop that has filled the glass: Wisconsin. Trump would have already commented at the end of March his intention to relegating Musk to the background. However, the Last weekend defeat In the elections to the Supreme Court of Wisconsin, in which Musk has invested about 25 million dollars, according to He affirmed The New York Timesit could have been the definitive proof that Republicans give Musk by amortized. Despite rumors, sources of Political They believe that Musk will maintain a role as an informal advisor and could be seen occasionally for the offices of the White House. However, others warn that it would be naive to think that Musk will move away completely from the Trump’s influence. A change in the relationship with Trump. Beyond political tensions with Republicans, or the growing reputational crisis that Musk’s participation in Doge is causing Tesla, this President’s movement reveals a change in the relationship between both millionaires. Just a month ago, the president said that Musk had come to stay. Instead, he is now organizing a quiet and discreet transition to move Musk away from political power positions. According to the information of PoliticalTrump would have declared about Musk: “I think it’s incredible, but I also think he has a great company to direct, so at some point he will return. He wants to do it. He would keep him while he could.” Tesla in flames by Musk. In any case, Musk’s exit from the political candlestick will contribute to the waters to return to their channel in Tesla, where the political exposure From his CEO he has caused protests and attacks on the concessionaires and vehicles of the brand. A Morgan Stanley survey to Tesla investors revealed that 85% thought that Musk’s political position was harming Tesla’s reputation. These protests have not remained at the local level. The sales of the brand worldwide have collapsed and, with them, the value of their actions, which they have lost in the last two months All won After the elections.

Now the company has a plan to stop benefiting its rivals, according to FT

Deepmind, the firm of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that Google acquired in 2014 and officially integrated into a single division in April 2023it has been for years one of the great referents of the sector. Over time, he has earned that place for the quality of his scientific publications and for gathering some of the brightest researchers. But there are reasons to believe that this approach has begun to change. Several experts cited by Financial Times They ensure that Google Deepmind is delaying the publication of certain advances that it considers “strategic” or delicate in the field of generative AI. The measure is part of a strategy designed to preserve its competitive advantage and prevent its most recent and valuable developments from being exploited by rivals such as OpenAi. Transformers, star architecture Much of the development of generative artificial intelligence is not understood without Google’s advances. One of the most influential milestones was the publication in 2017 of the article ‘Attention is all you need‘, signed by eight researchers, who introduced the Transformers architecture. This approach, in general, allowed the models to process data more efficiently within large volumes of information. This architecture became the base of models such as Bert (bidirectional encoder representations from transformers), developed by Google itself and incorporated into its search engine in 2019 to improve the understanding of natural language. It was also key to the development of presentful systems such as GPT (Generative pre-trained transformers) of OpenAi, where the current ones are framed GPT-4 and GPT-4.5. Google is one of the world’s largest companies in the world. It has a huge financial muscle and access to key technology. Even so, the launch of Chatgptbased on GPT-3.5a model built on Transformers architecture, He took by surprise to the teams directed by L sundaria Pichai. The reaction was a “red code” and an urgent reorganization to compete again in an AI race that today leads OpenAi. It is no secret: when a company becomes a Big Tech, it loses part of the dynamism that defined it in its beginnings as startup. As we counted exactly one year agothey end up transforming into giants where the “move quickly and breaks things” no longer fits. They have too much to protect and a gear with thousands of pieces that cannot allow failures. Risking is not as easy as it seems. Even in this context, it surprises the speed with which the company of the search engine has managed to catch up. In a short time he has launched a AVALANCHA OF IA PRODUCTS based on advanced language models. There it is Geminihis direct rival of Chatgpt; Gemini Livedesigned to compete with Openai’s advanced voice mode; the Gemsthat work as Personalized GPTS; and amazing tools, such as Notebooklm. The new Google pulse The last years have forced the Mountain View company to introduce internal weight changes. One of the most significant affects the policy of publication of scientific articles: if the content is considered strategic, an seizure of six months is imposed before making it public. In addition, the group led by The Nobel Prize winner Sir Demis Hassabis He has hardened his internal processes, with a stricter review. One of the researchers who spoke on condition of anonymity with Financial Times was clear: today he cannot imagine Google by publishing a document like Transformers for general use. In this new dynamic, they say, “the company has become more concerned about the product and less for sharing the results of the investigation for the benefit of the common good ”, an address that can generate some discomfort in the community.

At 110 -inch and 165 Hz to get the players in your pocket

Hisense seems unstoppable. His growth has allowed him to place himself in second position in the global television market only behind Samsung During the third quarter of 2024. In fact, He has surpassed his compatriot Tcl. And these two Chinese brands have beaten by 2% the LG market share during that same quarter. This “photography” helps us identify in what state the television market is currently. In any case, in this article, what interests us is to investigate the high -end and mid -range models that Hisense proposes us by 2025. At the top of his catalog we have two televisions: the 110 UX mini mini LED, equipped with a 110 -inch LCD panel, and the 100E7Q PRO, a television that is committed to an LCD matrix. The other four televisions are 55 or 65 -inch models with a much more affordable price and a benefit that will call the attention to the players: they all propose panels with a 144 or 165 Hz soda. Hins’s TVs by 2025: Technical Specifications 110 UX Mini LED 100E7Q PRO panel LCD ADS 4K UHD, 8 Bits + FRC, up to 144 Hz and 16: 9 LCD VA 4K UHD, 8 Bits + FRC, 144 Hz and 16: 9 resolution 3,840 x 2,160 points 3,840 x 2,160 points size 110 inches 100 inches Retroilumination Mini LED Direct LED HDR Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR and HLG Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR and HLG processor Quad Core/MT9618 Quad Core/MT9618 Operating system Lifea U7.6 Lifea U8.5 sound 2 x 15 watts + 2 x 20 watts + 2 x 6 watts + 2 x 6 watts Dolby Atmos 2 x 15 watts + 20 watts connectivity 2 x HDMI 2.1 and 2 x HDMI 2.0 2 x HDMI 2.1 and 2 x HDMI 2.0 Wireless connectivity Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.0 Wi-Fi 5 Bluetooth 5.0 price 14,999 euros Not available 65U8Q 65U7Q PRO 65E8Q CANVAS 55S7NQ panel LCD VA 4K UHD, 8 Bits + FRC, 165 Hz and 16: 9 LCD VA 4K UHD, 8 Bits + FRC, 165 Hz and 16: 9 LCD VA 4K UHD, 8 Bits + FRC, 144 Hz and 16: 9 LCD VA 4K UHD, 8 Bits, up to 144 Hz and 16: 9 resolution 3,840 x 2,160 points 3,840 x 2,160 points 3,840 x 2,160 points 3,840 x 2,160 points size 65 inches 65 inches 65 inches 55 inches Retroilumination Mini LED Mini LED Mini LED Eld HDR Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR and HLG Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR and HLG Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR and HLG Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR and HLG processor Quad Core/MT9655 Quad Core/MT9655 Quad Core/MT9618 Quad Core/MT9618 Operating system Lifea U9 Lifea U9 Lifea U8.5 Lifea U8 sound 2 x 15 watts + 2 x 10 watts + 20 watts + 2 x 10 watts 2 x 10 watts + 20 watts + 2 x 5 watts 2 x 10 watts + 20 watts 2 x 10 watts + 2 x 8 watts connectivity 3 x HDMI 2.1 4 x HDMI 2.1 2 x HDMI 2.1 and 2 x HDMI 2.0 2 x HDMI 2.1 and 2 x HDMI 2.0 Wireless connectivity Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.3 Wi-Fi 5 Bluetooth 5.3 Wi-Fi 5 Bluetooth 5.0 Wi-Fi 5 Bluetooth 5.0 price Not available 1,199 euros 949 euros 899 euros * Some price may have changed from the last review 7Ense 65E8Q TV 65 “ * Some price may have changed from the last review HISENSE CANVAS TV 55S7NQ – ART MODE, HI -MATE DISPLAY DISPLAY, ULTRASLIM DESIGN, 4K QUANTUM DOT COLOR, 144 HZ, LIFESTYLE * Some price may have changed from the last review 100 -inch or more models promise us a film experience The most ambitious TV that is going to place Hisense in Spanish stores this year is 110 UX mini LED. As I mentioned a few lines above, it is committed to an 8 -bit LCD + FRC LCD matrix and 110 inches capable of working at a maximum soda frequency of 144 Hz. Its mini LED retroilumination system incorporates 40,960 independent local attenuation zones, and, according to Hisense, it has a maximum brightness delivery capacity of 10,000 nits. These figures are a real barbarity. In addition, you are prepared to deal with All HDR formats currently used. The pity is that only two of its four HDMI entries implement Standard 2.1 complete. The 110 UX Mini LED has Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, while the 100E7Q Pro implements Wi-Fi 5 On the other hand, the 100E7Q Pro model has an LCD matrix ranges from 100 inches and 8 bits + FRC that is also able to refresh 144 Hz. However, unlike 110 UX does not propose Mini LED retroilumination; Bet on a much more modest Direct LED scheme. Even so, it maintains compatibility with all HDR formats that are currently used and the two HDMI 2.1 inputs that allow us Wi-Fi 6while 100E7Q Pro implements Wi-Fi 5. Hi the 110 UX Mini LED. The mini LED and 165 Hz tandem is a winning bet for players The 65U8Q TV is one of Hins’ most balanced proposals by 2025. And it is committed to an LCD panel ranges from 65 inches with mini LED retroilumination that is capable of giving us brightness peaks of 5,000 nits. In addition, its refreshment frequency amounts to 165 Hz by activating games for games, and, like the other televisions of this brand, you can process all HDR formats currently used. Another point in your favor: the three HDMI entrances that incorporate implement standard 2.1. And, of tip, its sound on the paper rivals that of the much more ambitious 110 UX mini LED. 75u8q. On the other hand, the 65U7 Pro model has a lot in common with the television in which we have just investigated. It is also committed to an LCD matrix ranges from 165 Hz with mini LED backlight, and both incorporate the socio mediatek MT9655. However, the 65u7q pro delivery 2,000 nits … Read more

2024 YR4 is not going to kill us, but could collide with the moon

The James Webb space telescope has been observing the smallest object of all its history. For a good reason. It is about Famous Asteroid 2024 YR4 That, at the beginning of the year, it appeared in NASA’s planetary defense systems and ESA as a potentially dangerous object. First measurement. The images taken with the near infrared chamber (NIRCAM) of the Webb Telescope show the light reflected by the asteroid. Those taken with the Middle Infrared Instrument (Miri) show their thermal light. The set of these data has allowed astronomers Determine that 2024 YR4 measures 60 meters in diameterapproximately the height of a 15 -story building. However, the asteroid shares thermal properties with larger bodies, perhaps due to the rapid speed at which it is rotating or the lack of fine sand (regolito) on its surface. It is probably formed by rocks the size of a fist or even larger. It will not collide with the earth. Webb’s first observations, which began on March 8, have also confirmed what they had been saying NASA and ESA: 2024 YR4 is not a threat to our planet. The probability of crossing with the Earth in December 2032 is now 0.0011%. All relief, taking into account that It became 3.2% when there were not enough data yet to close the range of uncertainty in the calculations of his career. The UN will no longer have to coordinate with space agencies to try to divert it or to evacuate cities at risk. I could impact the moon. On the other hand, the Webb has confirmed a 2% chance that 2024 YR4 clash with the moon. It is still a very small probability (seen otherwise, there is a 98% probability that it does not happen), but in this case astronomers are in favor of the impact. That the asteroid clashes with the moon would not put us in danger, and instead would allow astronomers to document the impact of a meteorite, their effects on the satellite and the lunar surface material that would be triggered. While natural asteroids that impact the moon are not so rare, they are difficult to predict even after being observed, when their mass and speed are unknown. 2024 YR4 would be a perfectly controlled experiment thanks to all the data that scientists have collected about it. In favor of the impact. “Part of our motivation to continue observing this asteroid in particular is to find out if that number (the probability of impact with the moon) will also be reduced to zero,” he told New Scientist Andrew Rivkin, one of the astronomers of the Johns Hopkins University who asked for hours of the Webb Space Telescope to observe 2024 YR4. “We cross our fingers so that there is an impact on the moon,” added Alan Fitzsimmons, of the Queen’s University of Belfast. “It would have no effect on Earth, but it would allow us to study for the first time the formation of a lunar crater by a known asteroid.” Images | NASA, ESA, CSA In Xataka | In 2011, a collector bought in Morocco a meteorite.

That a model of AI is stuck playing something as basic as ‘Pokémon’ seems worrying. It is not at all

It was 2013 and almost no one had heard of Deepminda small artificial intelligence startup. His researchers came up to make their AI system learn to play (already win) video games, and They trained her with some titles of the old Atari console. Among them was ‘Breakout’ (in Spain it appeared as ‘Arkanoid’), and A video of the time It shows how after 10 minutes playing the machine did not know just anything. After two hours of play, yes, I already played as an expert. But at four o’clock something amazing spent: The machine discovered a “trick” To maximize the effort: it made the ball end up creating “a tunnel” and then cast the ball through that tunnel so that it would not stop bouncing and ending almost the entire level effortlessly. Since then using video games to train AI models or to check if they are able to adapt to them and complete them is common in the industry. It is precisely what Anthropic tried when a few weeks ago Claude 3.7 launched. This hybrid model of AI has proven to be a notable advance in areas such as programming and reasoning, but in Anthropic they wanted to test it with a singular test: To play the ‘Pokémon’ video game. The AI ​​is stuck In this experiment those responsible for Anthropic wanted to evaluate whether the AI ​​systems “can face challenges with increasingly complex competences, not only through training, but of generalized reasoning.” Claude’s previous versions had a bad time even trying to start playing from the video game’s beginning screen, but Claude 3.7 Sonnet’s “expanded thinking” allows the new model «Plan in advanceremember their objectives and adapt when the initial strategies fail »in a way that their predecessors did not do. For those responsible for Anthropic these improvements will end up helping to solve real world problems. It is something we are also seeing With the benchmark arc -agi 2which is precisely aimed at measuring the ability of the Ias to do things that are easy for us (controlling a video game, solving a visual puzzle) but these models are especially difficult. Source: Anthropic. The advance of Anthropic here is remarkable, but is far from being able to be considered a success. In fact and how they comment In Ars Technicathousands of spectators have proven On the Twitch Channel created by Anthropic how Claude stayed totally stuck in Mount Sléniteone of the video game sections. In that channel you can also see how Claude is still trying to solve the problem and advance. “Think” and “reason” and even shows what “thinking” and “reasoning”, but the model still does not overcome that video game. And despite everything, this is a great achievement of AI Taking into account that the video game is oriented to children, it seems easy to despise the achievement of Anthropic, but these advances must be valued very positively. To start, Claude 3.7 model used to play was not “pressed” to play the video game: I had to learn about the march and adapt to the game. Here also Claude “sees” the screen and what happens to react based on that analysis. And the problem is that The ‘Pokémon’ graphics are very basic and pixelatedwhich raises an even greater challenge for the Anthropic model: with better graphics it would probably behave much better, explained one of those responsible for the experiment. Even so, Claude behaves especially well in the parts of the game in which text is shown, something that allows this model to better recognize what he needs to do in that phase of the video game. But if there is a serious problem, that is also that of memorization. Claude has trouble remembering everything you have learned: It has a limited “memory” Of 200,000 tokens and when they exhaust Claude, they resort to summaries and condense the information, which can lead to eliminate small details that are important to advance in the game. Be that as it may, the achievement of Anthropic remains remarkable, and points to a future in which these models can play autonomously and do so exceptionally to all kinds of games. As Deepmind already did it with that simplistic version of the ‘Arkanoid’, but in a big way. In Xataka | The latest Google is an AI that plays video games.

The great drama of private employment in Spain: almost everyone would sacrifice him for being an official

The data reveals the Last study ‘Status of discomfort: the labor turn to the public sector ‘prepared by Oppositatest leaves a photograph of the current state of the employment of the private sector in Spain: seven out of ten Spaniards would leave a stable job in the private sector for a fixed position in the public sector. Public employment is gaining land as the preferred option in an increasingly challenging labor market. The Stability searchbetter working conditions and a more favorable environment for reconcile personal and professional life It is promoting this transition to the private sector. Public employment: a refuge value. The portal dedicated to the formation of opponents conducts an annual study of the situation of the opponent. On this occasion, the report has been based on 2,000 representative interviews at the national level that show that the public sector is consolidated as the labor alternative preferred by the Spaniards. 68% of men and 72% of women would abandon stable job in the private sector to access a place in the public sector. Details about this decision reveal that 30% of public sector employees have had more than ten contracts in the private sector in their working life before presenting an opposition, compared to 15% of private sector workers. The data on working life in the sector could be an indicative that the public sector has become a refuge value against the excesses suffered for those employees during their stage in the private sector. In Xataka Some researchers have analyzed the working day in Spain: the same thing that 40 years ago is worked, but in worse jobs An increasingly attractive option. According to the study, one in two Spaniards considers that today opposing is a more attractive job option than it was a decade ago, evidencing a significant change in the perception of the public sector against the private. This statement takes on special strength in the age strip of between 18 and 24 years with 54% who thinks and between 25 and 34 years with 52%. In addition, this trend is more marked in some autonomous communities. In the Basque Country and Murcia, about 80% of workers would be willing to change the public sector, while in Madrid this figure descends to 57%. This regional contrast reflects differences, economic, labor and social that influence the perception of public and private employment. The key: salaries. The stability offered by public employment is one of the key factors that drives this preference. The data suggest that 44% of Spaniards would change the public sector Looking for better salariesespecially those of the age strip between 25 and 34 years, which amounts to 46%. The data support them, since according to A report From the Bank of Spain, salaries in the public sector exceed 24.97% to those of the private sector, exceeding the European average that marks an 8% gap between the salaries of the public and private sector. In addition, according to data from the Active Population Surveyfour out of ten Spaniards do not charge the overtime worked, which deepens the problem. In Xataka A painful comparison: what a computer engineer charges in Spain against what their counterparts in Europe charge Conciliation and job stability. Another factors that are subtracting competitiveness from the private sector in front of the public sector are labor conciliation and stability measures. 89% of respondents affirm that the public sector offers better labor conciliation measures and reduction of working hours, in which a progressive hardening of return policies to the office and Reduction of teleworking options. In addition, 40% of young people aged 18 to 24 see in the public sector a labor guarantee that It would allow them to become independent With stability that they have not found in the private sector, while 37% suggest that the public sector allows them to consider a family. On the other hand, 50% of the strip of between 44 and 55 years highlights its preference for the public sector as a way to access better retirement that would obtain it in the private sector, due to higher salary bases. {“Videid”: “X919SE0”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “The AI ​​and the future of our work Silvia Rivela | 100 years, 100 visions Ep.3”, “Tag”: “”, “Duration”: “2630”} A touch of alert to the private sector. The public sector has accelerated its Post of call for new places public in forecast of the Aging of its template of officials, that He will retire at a rate of 100,000 officials a year in the next ten years. With this massive demand, the private sector runs the risk of lose the best talent for not offering adequate working and salary conditions to offer greater stability. With this scenario, structural change is not only an option, but a need to balance forces and build a more sustainable and competitive labor market in the future.
