a bug that prevents the car from moving

by

He Renault 5 It is a car that is being liked. We verified this by driving it during our first impressions where we say that it is, without a doubt, one of the cars with which I have felt the most observed. And it is easy to verify with sales. The deployment in the French car market has been spectacular. During the month of December he fought face to face with the almighty Tesla Model Ywho managed to take away the honor of best-selling electric car in France for just over 100 units (4,807 units of the Tesla Model Y compared to 4,681 units of the Renault 5). The emergence has been such that with just over two months on the market it has reached close to 10,000 units and has managed to become the seventh best-selling electric car in France, according to data collected by Clean Technica. But some Renault 5 buyers have reported a worrying bug. One that leaves the car unusable because it does not allow them to move from position N. A problem that Renault is already solving The story comes to us through our French colleagues from Jeuxvideowho echoed the case via an official Renault forum in France. In it, the owner of an electric Renault 5 says that, just a week after purchasing the car, his small electric vehicle does not change gears. It is “frozen in N (Neutral) mode,” he explains in the post that you can read at this link. In it it states that the car cannot jump to D/B mode (to resume driving) or R (to reverse). Furthermore, he assures that other drivers have had the same problem, as explained to him by the person who towed the car to the workshop. Of a case collected three weeks ago, “he told me that another owner (of whom I attach a photo) had exactly the same problem“he emphasizes in the publication. In that same publication, two other drivers claim to have had the same problem. One of them assures that it was solved after half an hour and that the vehicle has to be updated. The problem is known to Renault. In fact, the company itself has offered an official response which explains that they have provided a patch to fix this bug that leaves the car unusable. If this happens, they recommend performing a complete reset of the vehicle, which can take between 20 and 30 minutes. Simply using the car again should have solved the problem. In Xataka We have contacted Renault, who have guaranteed us that they have no reports that this could have happened in any of the Renault 5s that already operate in our country. Despite everything, if we find ourselves in this situation and are not at home, Renault also explains that we can wait inside the vehicle for the reset to be completed but that we must comply with the following instructions: Make sure the vehicle is not charging. Do not use interior lights (dome lights, etc.). Do not use screen mirroring, radio or applications. Lock the vehicle using the key and/or the button on the instrument panel. Wait for the SOS LED to turn off before starting the car again Photo | renault In Xataka | Renault surprises with a bombshell: we will have an electric Renault 5 Turbo, rear-wheel drive and 500 HP

We are surrounded. Or, rather, the aviar flu has us surrounded. With positive in France and Portugal, the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food knows that it is a matter of time that the positives explode in Spain. The mission is now to delay everything that can. What does the ministry say? They don’t walk around: “In recent months, outbreaks of high pathogenicity avian influence in poultry, captive and wild (…) in the central and northern area of ​​Europe.” And the situation has gone worse. “In particular, in recent weeks there has been an increase in the number of cases detected (…) indicating a tendency to worsen up of the situation with the consequent increase in risk for Spain,” they continue. All that, “make it advisable to increase the level of risk nationwide and apply risk mitigation measures.” What implies all this. In terms of measures, the ministry has launched a whole series of measures: things such as prohibiting the “breeding of ducks and geese with other species of poultry”, the “breeding of poultry out of the outdoor” or even, even, even “Give water to corral birds from water tanks to which wild birds can access.” However, the standard opens the door to the use of birds or other devices that prevent the entry of wild birds. An inconvenience … necessary. Will we not be exaggerating? As Eloy Ureña, responsible for the Poultry Sector of the COAG, said In eldiario.es“The ministry’s decision can be an inconvenience for those who have layers, but it is worse to have a positive, because they die and because they suppose a relevant loss for exploitation.” And, of course, we are not talking about a futures. And it is not because, right now, the world lives the greatest outbreak of this flu ever registered. That gives us examples for almost everything. In the US, without going any further, the uncontrollable virus sprouts They have caused a shortage of eggs As you don’t remember. In California, without going any further, the dozen has reached 8.97 dollars: the average price of a dozen in the country in January 2002 was 1.93. In Portugal, the sacrifices have already begun and the risk that the wick pledge in Spain is larger every day that passes. Images | Rowan s | Chris Boland In Xataka |

Operator works differently (and better) to other agents who see our screen. Your secret: Cu

by

We already have OpenAi’s agent. It is called Operatorand it is a system capable of seeing our screen and performing actions autonomously in the browser from our requests. It is something we had already seen with ‘Computer Use’ from Anthropic either Deepmind Marinerbut here the company led by Sam Altman has its own special ingredient. Computer-Useing Agent (Cua). Operator uses a model called Computer-Useing Agent (CUA) that is based on GPT-4O. CUA interprets screenshots and interacts with websites through the typical browser controls, such as a cursor or a mouse. How Cua works. As they explain In Openai’s documentationthis system processes those “raw pixels” of the captures that you make and use a mouse and a virtual keyboard to complete its actions. Once you have the screenshot, “reason” and follow a “thought” line in which the past actions take into account. Promising performance. There are several benchmarks since they allow to evaluate the ability of these agricultural models. According to them tests performed internally In Openai, CUA achieves a 38.1% performance in OSWORLD (Use of a computer in general) against platforms such as Anthropic, which achieves 22%. Humans, yes, achieve 72.4% on average, which makes it clear that these systems still have a lot of improvement margin. In the use of the browser, the Benchmarks Webarena and Webvoyager also allow Operator to score very high: 58.1% and 87% respectively, compared to 36.2% and 56% of their competitors. What about those catches that I collect operator. Operator continuously performs screenshots to “see” the browser interface with which he interacts. That browser does not run on our PC, but in a remote browser on OpenAI servers. User data, including these catches, are used according to OpenAI’s privacy policy. This is: they can be used to detect fraudulent activities and to improve the service. That implies that our data can be used to train and improve the model, although We can deactivate that option In operator settings. The user, yes, has the capacity for how long this data is stored in Operator. By default these data are saved until the user decides to delete them. An agent who asks for help (and confirmation) when he needs them. As we have seen in other agents such as ‘Computer Use’ of Anthropic, Operator is an agent who does not act crazy. If you meet an obstacle – like a captcha code or the request to introduce user and password on a website – you will ask that the user take control, and will also ask for the final user confirmation if for example we have to validate a reservation or purchase of a product that has sought Operator. The operator user can also take control at all times. This is how it works. Source: OpenAi Do not release the steering wheel. This reminds us of assisted driving systems such as Tesla FSD. It is true that it is able to take us from one place to another once we introduce the destination address, but it is important to continue paying attention and have our hands in the steering wheel in case they occur unforeseen. With Operator and the rest of this type agents something similar happens. There are things that cannot be done. At the moment Operator cannot complete specialized tasks such as managing complex calendar systems or interacting with very personalized or non -standard websites. You will also refuse to do some tasks with high risk of provoking damages. For example, send emails, make electronic transactions or delete calendar events. Its benefits and capabilities will increase, without a doubt, but they will gradually do so and always guaranteeing that the possibility of error is the least possible.

In danger the prisoners of the Pitches Center for the Hughes fire?

by

The Hughes fire not only caused intense flames also disassembled the controversy for the safety of thousands of inmates at the Pi PiSess Detention Center. Janet Asante, spokesman for Dignity and Power Now, a non -profit organization that defends the rights of imprisoned people on Wednesday night to the sheriff Robert Lun Ignore the warnings of the advance of the Hughes fire. ” The Hughes fire began around 11:00 am on Wednesday in a remote area of ​​the East Area of ​​Lake Castaic, located 43 miles north of Los Angeles, which was helped to grow in danger due to the strong gusts of the Holy Winds Ana, according to Cal Fire authorities. The flames have already burned more than 10,000 grassland and weed acres and the fire has been contained in 36%. In fact, Justicela demanded the immediate evacuation of the four buildings that make up the Pitches Detention Center. This did not happen. “For months, we knew that the county only has 20 buses to transport imprisoned people and many of them do not work,” Asante said. “In danger were thousands of people.” In a report, the sheriff Luna said he would keep the inmates in the place. The last time Asante had verified the closeness of the fire of the prison facilities, it was half mile.“You could see the flames from the front of the facilities,” he said. “The news and images showed helicopters by launching fire retardants near prisons.” He informed that his concern was because members of Dignity and Power who have relatives in jail, “many of whom forget that they are in preventive detention, and that many more are there due to mental illnesses.” Indeed, in the Pitsss detention center there is a population of 1,200 individuals with mental problems. It was reported that 476 prisoners of the Pitches Detention Center that were evacuated on Wednesday as a consequence of the fierce Hughes fire in Castaic, continue to be protected in the North Correctional Center of the Los Angeles County. “The evacuation order of the rest of the prisoners was lifted at 9:00 am (on Thursday),” officer Gabriela Robles, from the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department (Lasd). Those who were moved to the building with cement walls, are still there. ” Robles said that “the good” was that, in addition, there was no danger of fire for the houses and ravages of the fire Hughes have concentrated in desert and mountainous areas. Luna’s reasonsLuna, Chief of Lasd, described that on Wednesday at noon, approximately 476 inmates of the southern facilities of the Pitches Detention Center (PDC) were transferred to the North County Correctional Installation, (NCCF) located in the northern part of the prison complex. Luna pointed out that this precautionary measure “was taken by having as the highest priority the security of those who are in our care.” He said that Custody staff coordinated six buses to help with the relocation of inmates.The inmates of the East Installation of the PDC, which houses the inmates of the Fire camping, were also transferred to the NCCF. To protect themselves against smoke exposure, the air circulation system in NCCF was temporarily closed in all housing units and agents offered N95 masks to inmates and staff. “These proactive measures were taken to protect everyone’s health and well -being in the prison complex while the fire department staff continued to fight the Hughes fire,” said the head of the sheriff. Luna added that the head of the Los Angeles County Fire Department, Anthony C. Marrone and the experts of his command staff reviewed the behavior of Hughes Fire, the type of building construction and the shape of fire fuel and recommended to the Sheriff and custody executives have all the refuge of the PDC complex in their place. After evaluating the strategic options, the risks to the safety of life and defensible space around prisons, Sheriff Luna made the decision to take refuge in prisoners and more than 300 members of the custody personnel in the building. “This tactic, backed by the leadership of the Fire Department of Los Angeles County, is a proven and effective strategy,” said Lasd. The approach to take refuge in the place (staying in the building) was used more recently at the Pepperdine University during the Franklin fire and at the Olive View hospital during the Hurst Fire, where more than a thousand students were recommended to take refuge in the place Due to the challenges of safely transferring large groups in an insecure environment. Feared for the life of his relativeIn the midst of chaos, Camila Sánchez, told the opinion that he felt fear for the life of a relative who has been in preventive detention for three years in Pitches Detention Center. “It was very difficult and frustrating having feelings and thoughts that there is not much to do when you can do when things do not depend on you,” he said. Camila’s concern increased with the passing of the hours, since he was only informed that some inmates were transferred from the southern installation to the North County Center, which is one of the four Pitches Detention Center buildings. He said he spent all night trying to obtain information through the Watch Duty application, and reviewing the different news sources that sail on Instagram, Facebook and Google.“I called this morning (Thursday) and the computer did not work. I couldn’t even check if they had buses ready to leave in case of an evacuation. ” Camila’s concern was justified. Due to the scarcity of transport of LASD, three times his relative was not taken to a hearing prior to his trial in court. “In addition, a friend of mine, whose son is imprisoned, told me that in one of the facilities they had barely distributed paper masks to cover their faces and that they had closed the bedrooms because they had to spray fire retarders outside the buildings,” Camila said. Thousands with evacuation ordersLuna said that 31,000 people are under the … Read more

In the midst of a campaign against TikTok, ByteDance has an ace up its sleeve: becoming an AI powerhouse

by

At ByteDance there is frenetic activity. At the moment, your social network TikTok is on a kind of legal limbo in the USbut ByteDance has many more open fronts. One is especially striking: AI. Especially because she had barely shown any signs of being involved in this segment. A most “interstellar” AI agent. First of all, the launch of the UI-TARS project is surprising. The name is probably a nod to the movie ‘Interstellar’, which featured an AI robot called TARS. The proposal is very reminiscent of Anthropic’s ‘Computer Use’ system, but unlike it, UI-TARS is Open Source, something surprising and which suggests that other startups and independent developers can use it as a basis for their projects. The code is available on GitHub. “Talking” to your computer. As in the case of Anthropic, it is possible to ask UI-TARS Desktop that executes tasks on your computer interface, which is capable of analyzing and recognizing to execute them. The developers warn that at the moment performance and behavior may be erratic. Your own programming assistant. Bytedance recently launched a developer assistant. Is called Bring and offers the same advantages as already popular alternatives as Cursor. With this platform we have a “virtual software engineer” who answers questions about the code, completes and generates it, and is even capable of developing projects from scratch based on user prompts. And a model that reasons…. The thing doesn’t end there, of course. ByteDance launched this week Doubao-1.5-proan update to its AI model that is now capable of “reasoning” and thus competing with OpenAI’s o1. In fact, those responsible for it claim that it surpasses its competitor in the AIME benchmark, in which the response of these models to complex instructions is measured. And even though it is affordable, cheap and gives benefits. As they point out on PandaDailythe model is especially efficient and for example the price per million input tokens is only 11 cents. Not only that: even though it costs relatively little, it promises a gross margin of 50%, which in a reasoning model – which usually requires significantly more resources – is striking. {“videoId”:”x9c3qcu”,”autoplay”:false,”title”:”The BRUTAL Chinese SURVEILLANCE system”, “tag”:”video surveillance”, “duration”:”73″} Huge investment in chips. In 2025 ByteDance plans to spend $12.3 billion on infrastructure for the development of its AI models. This is indicated by sources close to the company, indicate in Financial Times. 5.5 billion will be dedicated to acquiring chips in China, while 6.8 billion dollars will be invested abroad to develop their models taking advantage of advanced NVIDIA chips. Be careful with this other Bytedance. These are just the latest developments in the field of AI for ByteDance. This division continues to make losses – like most AI companies – because among other things it is reinvesting over and over again in R&D, and at this rate we may soon have to talk about another AI giant. In Xataka | China strikes back in the AI ​​war: its new open model matches Claude and GPT-4, and it is giving it away (function() { window._JS_MODULES = window._JS_MODULES || {}; var headElement = document.getElementsByTagName(‘head’)(0); if (_JS_MODULES.instagram) { var instagramScript = document.createElement(‘script’) ; instagramScript.src=”https://platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js”; instagramScript.async = true; instagramScript.defer = true; headElement.appendChild(instagramScript); – The news In the midst of a campaign against TikTok, ByteDance has an ace up its sleeve: becoming an AI powerhouse was originally published in Xataka by Javier Pastor .

It was written by the head of AI at Microsoft

by

Bill Gates is an avid reader who, from time to time, recommends most interesting readings that have passed through their hands. In a recent entry on your blog Personally, the millionaire founder of Microsoft assured that everyone should read “their favorite book on AI”, which predicts the enormous impact that AI will have on the labor market and the way people work. The book in question is titled ‘The coming wave: Technology, power and the great dilemma of the 21st century‘and he did not have to go far to look for his author, since he is Mustafa Suleymancurrent head of artificial intelligence at Microsoft and co-founder of Deepmind. A prophetic reading on AI “It’s the book I recommend more than any other on AI—to heads of state, business leaders, and anyone else who asks—because it offers something rare: a clear view of both the extraordinary opportunities and genuine risks that lie ahead. they wait,” Gates said in his review. Suleyman’s book, written in 2023, predicted the changes that the development and implementation of AIas well as its integration in almost all industrial sectors. In the book it is mentioned a study from the consulting firm McKinsey in 2023 in which it was estimated that half of “work activities” will be automated from 2030. The implications of the arrival of AI “will be enormously destabilizing for hundreds of millions of people who, at a minimum, will need to retrain and transition to new types of work,” Suleyman said in his book. According to study forecasts ‘Jobs lost, jobs gained’ Elaborated by McKinsey, more than 400 million workers around the world will need to apply some type of transition in the performance of their job due to AI. This It does not mean that they will be replacedbut that AI will be integrated at some point in their production processes and they will have to learn to use the new tools. However, the writer and CEO of Microsoft AI highlighted that, although in the first place these tools will only complement human work improving your productivity“it will fundamentally replace part of the workforce.” Suleyman stated in his work that, to a greater or lesser extent, the AI-powered automation It will affect the vast majority of industrial sectors to a greater or lesser extent, in tasks such as administration, customer service and content creation. Something that, just two years later, we are already seeing reach some industrial segments. The impact of AI on employment The Microsoft AI CEO’s book describes how a small handful of jobs will remain outside of this automation because the AI will not be able to automate its functions. These are those sectors in which the human factor is decisive: craftsmen, electricians, plumbers, or those positions that require creative or critical thinking skills, something that, for the moment, remains out of reach of AI. What the book points out as a certainty is that the vast majority of workers will need to expand their capabilities to learn to use AI tools, in the same way that a bricklayer learns to make cement or a lawyer knows the legal system. . They will be basic knowledge to carry out your work. OK to what was published According to the consulting firm Gartner in May 2024, 39% of technology departments in companies in the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany already had plans to train their employees in the use of AI, and 26% plan to do so in a future. period of six months. Gartner assured that, by 2028, one in four regrettable staff attrition will be due to managers’ lack of AI literacy. The report’ Future of Jobs Report 2025‘ which has just been presented at the World Economic Forum in Davos, points out that AI will destroy some 92 million jobs, but will generate 170 million new jobs. That is, there will be a displacement of skills that will force many workers to specialize in the use of AI. The study estimates that around 1,090 million jobs will continue with small modifications that will not affect their performance. In this sense, Suleyman’s forecasts coincide with the recently made by Sam Altmanrecognizing that the emergence of AI was going to cause many workers to be forced to move towards other new professions that currently they are still being defined.
