We have been waiting for Apple Carplay Ultra for three years. Now we have even more doubts about your success

by

From that WWDC held in 2022Apple users have been waiting for that New carplay generation that Never arrived. After almost three years, the company has made the name of its new operating system for cars official. One in which integration with the screens of the same It is practically complete. Carplay Ultra. Carplay’s new generation is called Carplay Ultraand it is exactly as Apple showed it two years ago in Porsche and Aston Martin cars. A system fully integrated in car screens and systems, including speedometer, fuel indicators and elements such as air conditioning. Apple does not want Carplay Ultra to be a system apart from the car interface: he wants to be the system that controls it completely. With all that this implies for manufacturers, which will have to give in to offer. In Aston Martin alone. Apple is Apple, and there was no more exclusive brand than Aston Martin to release his new carplay generation. The owners of the DB12, Vantage, Vanquish or DBX 707 will be the first to enjoy this Carplay update, first in the United States and with a predictable global expansion within the next 12 months. It will be necessary to have a iPhone 12 or superior executing iOS 18.5 or more recent versions. There is no news, saving Porsche as a partner, what more companies will join to give him (literally) the controls to Apple. Afternoon and bad. Apple Carplay Ultra It arrives after months latewith a condition that makes it clear that this system will not be for everyone. This update requires that the manufacturer yield practically all control over the elements of the Apple interface. Speedometer, tachometer, maps and music information, air conditioning … Carplay Ultra wants to be like Android Automotivebut at all times depending on the iPhone being connected. There is also no trace on how Siri will help us and be integrated with the car … because there are no news. The Nueva Siri is still in the airwhile Google pushes showing How Gemini will work on Android Automotive. The iPhone as a center. This is precisely one of CarPlay Ultra’s biggest problems: depending on an external device. In cars with Android Built-in, Android Automotive is the operating system, and does not depend on any time we have the connected mobile. With the Apple approach, without iPhone there is no paradise: Carplay Ultra is not a pre -installed system in the car, and this is a problem for the type of vehicle to which it is oriented: the luxury. Use carplay or Android car wirelessly It is an important punishment for the phone’s battery, and can cause yield inconsistencies when it is low (savings mode). For how many. The big doubt that Carplay Ultra throws is … for whom he is. That Apple has Aston Martin as the main partner is relevant, but Google also chose Polestar to release Android Automotive and ended up arriving at more mainstream marks. The key with Carplay Ultra is the assignment of almost complete control in a system that is not pre -installed natively. It does not seem easy for manufacturers to be willing.

Satellite images have revealed what happened to one of Russia’s biggest arsenals. Now we understand Moscow’s silence

by

On April 22 the satellites began to point out A point on the planeta change only perceptible through the images from space offered a first track of what was happening about 60 kilometers from Moscow. Despite the weather conditions of that day and the low resolution of the optical data captured by the Sentinel-2 satellite From the European Space Agency, the damages were clearly visible. An explosion had “burst” the 51st arsenal of the main missile and artillery direction of the Russian Ministry of Defense. Total devastation of Arsenal. Visual confirmation was reinforced by radar images Synthetic opening (SAR) capable of penetrating clouds and smoke, which showed significant structural alterations in the complex nucleus. The comparison between images Taken on April 14 and 23, it indicated that at least 30 buildings destined to storage of ammunition had been completely destroyed. Explosions, evacuations and blackouts. The day after the explosion, the secondary detonations They still continuedunderlining the magnitude of the stored material. The strength of the outbreak forced Evacuate eight nearby townswhile 37 settlements were left without gas supply. The most remote evacuated town was 4.5 kilometers from Arsenal. NASA fire monitoring system data also confirmed the existence of multiple igneous foci Within the perimeter, coinciding with the analysis of the intelligence expert (OSINT) MT Anderson, who used additional filters to detect heat points and Confirm destruction Massive infrastructure. A strategic arsenal. Then the magnitude of what happened began to be known. He 51st Arsenal Grau It was not simply a deposit of ammunition. As one of the Eight main arsenals that still operated in the European part of Russia, its function was key both in the distribution and in the logistics maintenance of the Moscow weapons. Three of those eight arsenals had already been destroyed for 2024, which turned this loss into a considerable strategic blow for the Kremlin military supply chain. Arsenal was designed to house Up to 264,000 tons of explosive material. Among the remains found after the explosion were identified 107 mm rockets for Multiple type 63 rocket Chinese manufacturing, many of which were recorded spread around local residents, suggesting that part of the material was stored outpatient and had recently been delivered. The catastrophe, or the attacknot only compromised Russian logistics operability in the Ukrainian conflict, but raised (once again) serious doubts about the security of its own arsenal in times of war. Images of the British report with the before and after the explosions A self -inflicted blow. Now, and after A study Of all the images and confidential information of the intelligence of the United Kingdom Ministry of Defense, it has been confirmed that the cause of the incident was not “external”, but a combination of bad practices in the management of armament and a negligent storage management by Russia. British research, in fact, is reinforced by the declaration of the Russian Defense Ministry itself, which, in silence from the incident without offering more data, there were attributed the disaster to the “violation of security requirements” in the manipulation of explosive materials. For the United Kingdom, the event is not an isolated case, but the reflection of a prolonged and documented trend of “Russian ineptitude in the treatment of its own ammunition”, although that yes, in this case it represents the greatest loss of self -inflicted arsenal since the beginning of the large -scale war in Ukraine. Strategic installation We already said it before. The affected deposit was a key installation for the war supply of the Kremlin on the Ukrainian front and, according to figures from the Ukrainian authorities cited by the United Kingdomhosted around hundreds of thousands of tons of ammunition, including ballistic missiles, projectiles thrown from air and anti -aircraft systems. Satellite images verified by the insider medium They also revealed that more than a square kilometer of the complex was affected by the detonations, which suggests that massive and prolonged destruction, with multiple fires and a chain of secondary explosions that, According to disseminated videos In social networks, they even reached nearby civil areas. Error pattern. In addition, it is not the first time that the arsenal of the 51st Grau suffers incidents of this type. Insider told That in June 2022, Russian state media reported a spontaneous explosion during loading and unloading operations that cost four people. The pattern is consistent with British complaint: A continuous chain of operational errors and insufficient security measures that make critical facilities into vulnerable points within the Russian military apparatus. The lack of technical discipline and effective prevention protocols has not only generated large material losses, but also has compromised the safety of populated areas in times of war. Consequences. If you want also, the incident gives wings to the rhetoric of the West. The impact of this catastrophe transcends the material. The destruction of one of the main deposits of Russian ammunition not only weakens the immediate logistics capabilities of Moscow in its offensive against Ukraine, but also reinforces an idea increasingly sustained Among the “alidos”: that of a corroded military power for structural failures, operational improvisation and a dangerous carefree for the most basic security standards. Seen thus, in full prolonged war and with its supply lines under pressure, losing tens of thousands of tons of armament due to internal negligence constitutes a defeat with several readings.

In Spain there are millions of pets and families wishing to travel with them. There are those who have already seen a millionaire business

by

At this point of the year, last May Ecuador and with summer almost (almost) to stone shooting, it is likely that you have already thought about your next vacation. The usual thing: you decide where you will leave, how you will move, who will accompany you, how much you will spend and begin to take a look at the destination in case you need reservations inputs or excursions in advance. To those concerns more and more people Add another: what to do with your pets. And in a country where there is already Many more company animals That children is not a minor issue. In fact that question is the key to a booming business. On vacation with your pet? If you have a pet and you are looking for options not to leave it behind during your vacation, you are not alone. More and more people do it. A while ago the agencies investigated the issue and discovered that between 2019 and 2022 Google searches on accommodations that admit animals had shot 93%with 65,000 searches In the summer months. In fact more than half From those consultations they started from people who seemed more interested in finding hotels Pet Friendly At any point in Spain that in locating them in a concrete city or province, which suggests that pets are key when planning the getaways. That interest also corroborates the travel agencies o Booking, one of the great platforms in the sector: in approximately 2023 eight million of people used pet filters while searching accommodation on their website. Hotels with them or for them. To that growing interest in hotels Pet Friendly The one of the specific residences for animals is added, which according to the marketing agency generated 80,210 consultations on average in June 2022. And the trend does not seem to have declined. A quick search arrives on Google to find a Good handful of news that They speak of The high demand of the Canine Hotels, the diversification OF THE OFFER (WITH ACCOMMODATIONS “deluxe” for dogs) or how your activity He has shot with the Animal Welfare Law. New demand, new business. That interest has not only promoted New businesses focused on taking care of pets while their owners go on vacation. The hotels themselves have decided to adapt. There is estimates They talk about almost One third (30%) of Booking accommodations support pets. If you are looking for a room for two people between August 18 and 24 in Spain, without specifying destination, its search engine showed 70,700 options on Thursday. When using the pet filter stays in about 17,400more or less 25%. “They usually invest more”. A few weeks ago the Palladium Hotel Group gave a The country A key to understanding that interest: admitting pets can lead to certain changes in the operation of accommodation, but also has its reflection on the income sheet. “Travelers who choose accommodations Pet Friendly They usually invest more in their stay, whether in broader suites or additional services, which positively impacts average spending by host, ” Recognize. Other companies have launched to organize trips and activities Designed so that the client can enjoy them in the company of their pet or have even gone further with bets more risky. Cruise Tails and Expedia Cruises of West Orland have organized A cruise that allows you to cross the sea In your dog’s companywith petroat service, hairdressing and veterinary on board. Maybe it sounds strange, but a considerable percentage His pets already accompanied by people. And that despite the fact that airlines and companies in charge of operating railway and bus services do not always make it easy to travel with animals. Even the Imserso It has adapted To the trend. More pets than children. That there are more and more demand and businesses focused on pets is better understood if a key fact is handled: in Spain there are more (Many more) Company animals that children. In September The world He pulled calculator And it came out that there are almost six furry companions for each child under four years. While the latter have fallen during the last decade to represent 3.7% of the population, pets touch the 10.5 million. After contacting all the veterinary schools of Spain, The country contributed Another estimate A few months ago: at the beginning of 2025 in the country there were around 1.6 million cats and 9.3 million dogs. In total: 10.9 million censored pets, without counting reptiles, birds, fish and other species. From the Reiac they point out that the figure “is not real at all” (there are animals without chip and owners who do not discharge them when they die), but it is the one that approaches reality. In any case, it clearly exceeds the number of children in Spain. In 2022 the INE counted 1.8 million about 6.5 million With less than 15 years. A Milmillonario business. Their data is not the only ones that reflect the growing weight of pets in Spanish society. It is calculated that in 80% of the municipalities From Malaga there are already double pets than children and the first They already double to the latter. At an economic level that translates into a lucrative business of thousands of millions of euros. Estimates do not always coincide, but give an idea of ​​their reach and how it has evolved. In 2017 it was estimated that in the EU the pet business invoiced 36.5 billion euroswith the Spanish market occupying the fifth position. Since then, despite the fact that the sector has given some moderation samples, the figure would have increased considerably. ANFAAC talks about almost 2,000 million In 2023 and there are estimates that raise clear that sum.

The new great models of generative the AI ​​do not stop delaying. It is a dangerous indication that we have touched the roof

by

We expected to have GPT-5 available at the beginning of the year, but OpenAi gave us GPT-4.5. The generative AI model, which theoretically represented a remarkable leap with respect to its predecessors, ended up disappointing and the company announced that it will eliminate it from its API in July. It was too expensive and simply did not compensate. That was already a bad sign of AI advance, but there is more. And GPT-5, what? It was expected that GPT-5 will arrive in the middle of the year. Sam Altman has been creating Hypebut in December we knew that the arrival of that model was being problematic. The jump in benefits I wasn’t being expected And the cost of developing it is huge. What did they do in Openai? Delay it and launch in its place GPT-4.5 That, as we have seen, it was one of the great disappointments in the history of Openai. Bad signal one signal. Behemoth is delayed. As indicated In The Wall Street JournalGoal will delay the launch and deployment of its most ambitious model to date, call 4 Behemoth. This “monster” with 288,000 million active parameters (two billion in total) is the third member of the newly presented family calls 4. However, according to WSJ “Company engineers are having difficulties in significantly improving” their capabilities. It should have arrived in April, but now it is estimated that it will arrive in autumn, or even later. Frustration. Sources close to the company indicate that managers are frustrated with the performance of the team that is developing calls 4 Behemoth. “Significant management changes” are already contemplated that would raise internal movements (and who knows if layoffs) as a result of these bad results. And not that the available flame models 4 are having a good receptionlet it be said. Bad signal number two. Unbalanced. In WSJ also highlight how the first flame version was created by its fundamental research team, formed by academics and researchers. Since then 11 of the 14 researchers have left the company. Anthropic does not advance either. We also expected a “round” leap in Claude, the Chabot of the generative of Anthropic, but in February the company presented Claude 3.7. It is true that this model Yes offered striking benefitsbut at the moment its Opus version, the most ambitious, still does not appear, and nothing is known about Claude 4.0. Bad signal number three. Jumps not, at most jumps. What we are seeing in recent months are not significant leaps in the capacity of the models, but striking improvements only in some sections or effective characteristics. It happened with Gemini 2.5 Pro, especially powerful in programming and that has allowed Google to win integersbut also with Openai and the famous images that imitate Studio Ghibli Oa Grok 3, who has become more famous for his lack of censorship that for its accuracy or quality (which is not bad). Deceleration. All this triggers the debate on a potential “deceleration” of AI: the climb no longer seems to work so well, and that of using more GPUS and more data to train models is not offering the expected return. Jaime Sevilla, CEO of Cophai, I did believe That the rhythm of improvement was being expected, but these delays of course make the future progress of generative the AI ​​again. The agents and the AI ​​that “reason” are hope. The models with “reasoning” capacity Yes, they have allowed us to propose striking improvements in some areas, and companies have launched to present this type of variants and deep research modes For specialized uses. The other great hope of 2025 are the agents of AI capable of completing task sequences autonomously to solve a problem, even connecting to other services or data sources. At the moment we already have outstanding examples in the schedule of programmingbut practical applications for end users are limited. Image | Goal In Xataka | There are too many AI models. That raises a true death sentence for Anthropic and Claude

We have a new explanation for dark matter. We have found it in superconductivity

by

Dark matter remains one of the great mysteries that intrigue astrophysicists around the world. The existence of this matter is assumed by the generally accepted cosmological models, but when determining the nature of the elusive matter we only have more or less founded conjectures and speculation. A new explanation. A group of researchers has proposed a new mathematical model which offers an explanation of the nature and origin of dark matter. The origin of this matter would be in the Big Bangas a consequence of the collision of high -energy and no mass particles, which would have won a great mass after their union. “Dark matter began its life as relativistic particles with hardly any mass, almost like light,” pointed in a press release Robert Caldwell, co -author of the study. “It is totally antithetical about what is usually believed to be dark matter (…). Our theory tries to explain how it was light to become masses.” Perhaps the most important detail in this work is that the theory postulated by this team can be tested thanks to the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The dark matter. The Dark matter It is the proposed explanation to explain a series of anomalies observed in the movement of the great objects of the observable universe as galactic galaxies and clusters. If we analyze their movements and compare them with the models used to describe them, such as the theory of relativity, we encounter that something does not match. Something seems to be pulling the matter. The dark matter would be different from the conventional or barionic in the fact that it would not interact with the rest of known physical particles except in one way: through gravity. That is why it would be so elusive despite the fact that its gravitational influence is still apparent. According to estimates, dark matter represents 85% of the matter of the universe. Return to Big Bang. The new proposed hypothesis Point out that fast particles, similar to photons, were the ones that dominated the universe after the “burst” of the big Bang. However, in that initial “chaos”, these particles would have joined in pairs. As postulate, the spin, one of the properties of the subatomic particles, would have exerted magnet among these particles: as if it were objects with opposite poles, the opposite spins of the particles would have caused the fusion. The hypothesis also proposes that, when these particles are cooling over time, the “imbalance in its spins” would have caused a drastic reduction in its energy, resulting in cold and heavy particles, dark matter. The “inspiration” for this model would have come from an analogous phenomenon seen in electrons, in the Cooper’s pairs, which allows electrical conduction without resistance, superconductivity. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Physical Review Letters. Putting the theory to the test. One of the great strengths of this hypothesis is that it is possible to test it. The key is that, according to the model, this “non -relativistic mass condensate” would decide faster than the standard scenario predicts. Explains the team that this prediction can be tested thanks to the cosmic microwave background, a type of radiation remnant Big Bang.

The companies of AI and their ‘Game of Thrones’, what would have happened if Apple had bought Tesla and much more in crossover

Your advertisement system leaves it exposed to a sanction under the DSA

by

Tiktok has one Announcement Library. Is available in any browserit is not necessary to have an account on the platform and, in theory, it allows us to consult what brands are announced, what content they promote and what type of users are directed. All this is part of an obligation imposed by the Digital Services Law (DSA) to the big online platforms. But there is a problem: according to the European Commission, which Tiktok offers is not enough. This Thursday, Brussels has notified the Chinese company its first preliminary conclusions after a Open research in February 2024. According to the official statementTiktok would not be providing key information on the content of the ads, the profile of the users to whom they are directed or the entities that finance them. Nor does it allow exhaustive searches within the repository. And that, for the commission, limits the real utility of the tool. A legal requirement that goes far beyond marketing These obligations are not a simple recommendation. The DSA, in force since February 2024, imposes strict rules on Vary Large Online Platforms (Vlops)that is, those that exceed 45 million monthly users in the EU. Tiktok is part of that list since April 2023 and, as such, must meet a series of Additional requirements in terms of transparency, protection of fundamental rights and control of systemic risk. This is the Tiktok advertisement library These requirements include the creation of a public repository of advertisements accessible to anyone. Its objective is to facilitate the detection of fraudulent campaigns, misinformation, undercover operations or attempts at electoral manipulation. Open access to this information also allows researchers, authorities and civil society to audit the advertising behavior of the platforms. In the case of Tiktok, Brussels believes that current mechanisms may not be complying with current legislation. The diagnosis, although preliminary, is based on the Internal Document Analysisfunctional evidence of the tools and interviews with experts, as detailed by the commission in its official note. What can happen from now The investigation is in a preliminary phase, which implies that Tiktok still has the right to review the file and present written allegations. But if the Commission confirms its conclusions and determines that there is a breach, it may issue a formal decision that activates the sanctioning regime of the DSA. That can translate into a fine of up to 6 % of the annual global billing of the company, in addition to reinforced supervision measures. In statements collected by Reutersa company spokesman has affirmed that Tiktok remains committed to improving its transparency tools and supports the objectives of the regulation. However, he has shown his disagreement with some of the interpretations of the Commission and has indicated that the conclusions are preliminary, not “clear public guidelines.” It has also requested conditions of equality and a coherent application of the regulations.

One week after the ninth launch of Starship, something is not going well at the Spacex headquarters

by

There are few days left for the expected ninth test flight of Starship. Is scheduled, according to the Notice to navigatorsfor next Wednesday, May 21; And the tension is palpable. Not just because two previous starship will explode Before reaching its objective height, but because the situation in Starbase is quite similar to a pressure cooker. Morality in minimums. In recent days accusations have appeared on poor management of Starbase Since Elon Musk spends more time in the White House than at the company’s headquarters. A toxic work culture, serious security failures and managers’ behavior is undermining the moral of employees and putting the future of the company at risk, according to these complaints, published mainly on the social network X. The accusations, mainly poured by Morgan Wyatt Khan and Dylan Small, both ex -employed from Spacex, draw a bleak panorama in Starbase, the city that Elon Musk is building in Texas next to the factory and the starship launch facilities, the highest and most powerful rocket in the world. What should be a hotbed of enthusiasm seems to have become, for some, a hostile work environment. Risk situations. Morgan Wyatt Khan, who worked by installing engines in Starship, regrets having to leave a job he loved for the “disgusting and demoralizing behavior of the address.” In your messages, Ask for a Starbase audit and denounces the lack of knowledge and respect for the hardware from some workers. He also says he has seen robberies and risk situations, such as nitrogen exposure or the presence of “stones, screws, garbage and human waste” inside the rockets. He even mentions that the bosses ignored safety problems related to defective hydraulic systems and wonders if they are due to a negligent design or that “Elon has left Spacex in automatic pilot while dedicated to his adventures in the White House.” A “terrible” management. Dylan Small, who worked at Falcon 9 and later in Starship, describes the “terrible” Starbase management. Small recounts how he contracted tuberculosis during his stay in Starbase and the company handled the situation “unacceptable”, with “zero real support and a complete lack of attention.” Small denounces that Engineers attributed foreign ideasthat their requests to establish more efficient schedules were rejected and that I had never seen “so much personnel rotation and administrative dysfunction.” “Friends with more than 15 years in Spacex wonder what the hell has happened.” We need you, Elon. “Moral is low. People are burned and start feeling abandoned. Please come back and travel the plant,” Small writes in a message addressed to Elon Musk. “Talk to the technicians, the welders, the crane operators, the quality inspectors. Everyone continues to believe in the mission. They need you to help rekindle the spark.” The situation has reached such an extent that Musk himself responded to the accusations confirming that will be in Starbase next week To give a talk to employees before launch. Is Elon the solution? That is the big question. Elon Musk’s incursion into politics and his radical messages about immigration or gender ideology have led to, even within their companies, there is a growing division of opinions about his figure. Nor is it that Musk is known for promoting a healthy and pleasant work culture. His style tends more to micromanagement already exalt the overfoundputting as an example Your holiday aversion and the nights he has slept in his companies. As May water. At the moment of truth, morality will not improve unless Starship’s 9 flight is successful. To the explosions of flights 7 and 8 you have to add problems with an engine in a recent ignition test. Spacex needs, as May water, that the Starship 35 completes its objectives. But the most interesting thing will surely happen behind the scenes, where Elon Musk or some of their trusted people must take action on the matter to straighten the internal course of the company.

The US president has just launched a clear notice to Apple

by

Apple is still looking for how to reduce its dependence on China. In a recent conversation with investorsTim Cook confirmed that most iPhone that will be sold in the United States in the coming months will be manufactured in India. Is another step in the diversification process that the company has started silentlybut already gives results: Half of its iPhone for the US market already leave factories in the country led by Narendra Modi. But the strategy has not been well received on all fronts. During a public intervention in Qatar, within the framework of his Middle East tour, the US president said he had “a small problem with Tim Cook”. His words, Video registered and available on YouTubeThey showed a clear discomfort with the direction that Apple has taken. According to his own testimony, I would have told the company’s CEO: “You will invest 500,000 million, but now I find out that you are building throughout India. I don’t want you to build in India.” The president went further at his presentation. He said that, after years of accepting that Apple built factories in China, now the expectation is that this production is transferred to American soil. “We want you to build here. We are not interested that you continue expanding in India, ”he said in a direct tone that he can mark a new stage in the relationship between the new administration and the Cupertino company, which, by the way, It is one of the largest in the world for stock market.
