The expectations of ‘A Minecraft movie’

by

The rather stimulating trailers of ‘A Minecraft movie’ (the first one accumulated on YouTube More than one million dislikes) They do not guarantee that the film is a failure. Estimates around it from surveys, presales and tickets already bought facing the weekend predict a good result. But triumph or not, ‘Minecraft’s film’ is a good example of one of the big hollywood problems. A Basel for the box office. The first quarter of the year has been terrible: movies like ‘Snow White‘ either ‘Mickey 17 ‘ They have punctured at the box office despite their high expectations, so the looks are now oriented to Warner and this ‘a Minecraft movie’. The projections are generous: there is talk of between 65 and 70 million collection, 140 at the international level, which would be An excellent start for the movie And a respite for the Hollywood box office, matching success premieres like ‘Dune: Part two‘, released now a year ago. The reef of video game adaptations. Although for a time they considered themselves bad business due to the difficulties of transferring the proposals of video game as’ Street Fighter ‘,’ Double Dragon ‘or’ Super Mario Bros. ‘, the adaptations have shaken the curse thanks to indisputable box office bombings as’Sonic The Hedgehog‘ either ‘Super Mario Bros.: The movie ‘. Until an openly lower proposal as ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’ paid off so positively that this year its sequel is released. Other influences. ‘The Minecraft ‘film manages other clear influences: on the one hand’ La Lego Movie ‘and its sequels also produced by Warner, and that are based on the analog construction game, of course, but especially in the great video games also gestated by Warner and that, in some way, have much to do in spirit with’ Minecraft ‘. And in addition, with one of Jack Black’s recent box office successes, the two deliveries of ‘Jumanji’ starring The Rock, and that closing the circle, are based on a movie of the eighties that dealt with a board game without real counterpart but whose rules and development had much to do with the philosophy of video games. Difficult to adapt. The amazing thing about this particular IP is that Minecraft, like all retro spirit games (although it is not materially), it is very difficult to adapt. Not only because of its very unmatched graphics, but by mechanics that touch abstraction and, above all, its lack of history, placing themselves on the opposite side of games like ‘The Last of Us’. In ‘Minecraft’ each player and each game are unique, and generate an argument around that runs the risk of alienating those who have lived radically different experiences with “their” game. Hollywood has solved these types of problems generating a Lore that sometimes goes well (‘Super Mario Bros. the movie’) and sometimes it goes wrong (‘Street Fighter’). And if the problem is abstraction, as in ‘Doom’, leaving the tangent with results not always estimated. Everything is an IP. There is nothing more to see all the films mentioned so far to see that Authentic juggles with formulas and names that have been successful in previous films, agitated in a seemingly infallible formula (the most popular video game of all time, blockbusters and even some commercial subtlety that can escape the little warned, such as the presence of Emma Myers, co -star of a success among the youngest public, such as ‘Wednesday’). The Hollywood game. THE ADVANTAGES FOR THE CONTINUED IPS Cinema Business They are obvious: risks are reduced when dealing with stories and characters that have already been tested and accepted by the public; Success precedents such as Marvel or ‘Star Wars’ incline the balance in favor of franchises; and IPS allow extra income with a corporate approach that comes from merchandising and licenses. An almost safe bet that, of course, is sometimes stumbling blocks Like the recent ‘Borderlands‘or the chopped fall of originality and risk, but they are still anecdotes in the face of reality: the 10 most viewed films in 2024 were All sequelae, remakes or franchises. The numbers sing. Hollywood has turned in the last 15 years in productions of this type and if movies such as ‘Minecraft’ continue to find a box office hole, nothing will make the situation change. 30 of the most viewing films in streaming in 2024, according to NielsenThey were based on pre-existing material. Of the 66 films that exceeded 100 million collection in the last three years, 47 They were from a franchise. And so on to infinity: the strangeness with these figures is not that there are films like ‘Minecraft’. The strange thing, knowing how money likes in Hollywood, is that not all of them.

Microsoft reinforces Copilot. The problem is that he does it with options traced to those of his competitors

by

Microsoft He turns 50 today Since its creation, and to celebrate it, it presents a new niche of characteristics for its artificial intelligence platform. Copilot is reinforced With interesting options, but the problem is not that: none is essentially differential. In fact, all of them have been available for some time in the AI ​​models of their competitors. Here it shows for example how Microsoft continues to adapt options of the AI ​​model of its main partner, OpenAi. Mustafa Suleymanhead of the AI ​​division in Microsoft, explained in the statement the objective with this announcement. He remembered how Bill Gates’ ambition when creating Microsoft was to put a PC in each home. That of this Microsoft today is to create “an AI partner for everyone.” And that tries Copilot, which as we say has been updated with new functions that try to make this chatbot more versatile than ever. The novelties are the following: COPILOT ACTIONS: Here Microsoft’s AI acts as an AI agent capable of performing actions autonomously. In the example shown searches and filled forms to find a storage or reserve a restaurant. Once again it remains to be seen how far this type of octive can go, which, As Operator demonstratedit is one of the great market trends. COPILOT PAGES: Through this option the user can collaborate with Copilot in real time, talking with him to edit answers adding files and context. The proposal is identical to the characteristic Canvas of chatgpt. Deep Research: In Microsoft they also offer – as for weeks– This mode of functioning that allows much more detailed analysis of our requests to search on the Internet, analyze data and start from showing a more “meditated” and theoretically more precise and detailed response. COPILOT VISION: This option is especially striking Artificial vision that allows Co -ilot to “see your screen” and help you complete tasks that you don’t know how to do in it. It also indicates on the screen what you have to do, something especially useful. Copilot Memory: If you give your permission, Copilot will remember your interaction with the model to be more useful and be more adjusted to your preferences over time. In this way, when using this information, for example for travel or restaurants recommendations. Copilot Search: As they already did Perplexity (In January 2023!) And also Chatgpt Search, now Copilot also gives access to a search engine that is also based totally on references and sources that is quoting in the answers. Copilot Podcasts: This chatbot is now capable of generating podcasts with voices synthesized with Ia. The idea is basically the same with which Notebooklm conquered us A few months ago. Copilot Shopping: A reinvention of aid for products searches, offers alerts and AI -based price analysis. Another segment in which there is also and there will be fierce competition, but that of course provides another useful option for the Copilot ecosystem. As we said, many of those options have been launched by OpenAI in recent weeks and it is natural that they end up arriving in Co -cilot given the alliance between both companies. In other cases what it does is offer characteristics that we had already seen for example in Google or Anthropic models. The advance is to thank and strengthens Microsoft’s proposal, but here the feeling is that the company will rely instead of leading this segment. That does not mean that Microsoft does not have plan B. They have been working on their own AI models for many months –Phi-4, which we tried in Xatakait is a good example – this is already sure It is more a “update” of its offer of services of AI than anything else. There are no revolutions here, but an expected evolution and that at least allows Microsoft to continue to be in that fight.

The key is called Giuk and gives China and Russia to the east of the US

by

In January it sounded strongly and since then there is no week that the idea is not reproduced: United States Groenland wants. We explain that we are not really new, and that when Trump said wanting to take control of the enclave it was The fifth time in the history that the United States “touched” at the door of the island. However, there is now a difference with respect to other attempts. Greenland has something that makes it a strategic zone “for what can happen.” Russian and Chinese threat. Greenland has become A critical point For the national security of the United States, and although much has been commented, it is not mainly for economic or symbolic reasons, but for Its strategic position in the fight against the progress of Russian or eventually Chinese submarines. In fact, this has been confirmed through General Christopher G. Cavoli, Supreme Commander of NATO in Europe and head of the US European command. The man declared before the Senate Armed Services Committee that access to the airspace and maritime of Greenlandia It is fundamental To detect and follow the track of the Russian submarines before they are lost in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean. The island is part of the western edge of the Giuk gap (Greenland-Islandia-Reinian Reino), a vital corridor through which the Russian underwater fleet from Murmansk, home of the most advanced naves of the Kremlin, such as class submersibles, such as class submersibles, such as class submersible Yasen-mequipped with long -range cruise missiles. The giuk gap. This corridor is a strangulation point Maritime that, if not properly watched, allows Russian or Chinese submarines operate without being detected In the North Atlantic. Once they cross the gap, its location becomes extremely difficult, both because of the acoustic conditions of the underwater terrain and by the oceanic vastness. Thus, from these hidden positions they can launch missile attacks against strategic objectives On the east coast of the American continent. In fact and in response to this, the United States formed in 2021 the so -called Task Group Greyhounda specialized group of anti -submarine destroyers Designed to counteract This specific threat. The American navy itself warned at the time that the east coast of the country already It was not a safe shelterunderlining the urgency of establishing surveillance and defense points in key areas such as Greenland. Map of the Giuk Via of the Cold War (still relevant) The Russian answer. For their part, they counted the The War Zone analysts that Russia has proven to know very well the value of this corridor. In 2019, he organized his greatest naval exercise since the Cold War, sending at least ten submarines through the completely submerged Giuk gap, with the aim of reaching the Atlantic without being intercepted. According to Norwegian mediathe intention was clear: to prove the capacity of the West to detect movements of his fleet and demonstrate that he could project power to the US coast. These exercises also fulfill a fund growing territorial presence. Advanced control point. The island of Goenland, with only 320 km of separation from Iceland, constitutes a natural bottleneck inside the Giuk. This proximity allows its use as an advanced basis for anti -submarine operations. Although the United States already has the base of the space force In Pituffik (Antigua Thule), equipped with early alert radars against ballistic attacks, General Cavoli suggests that it would be strategically advantageous to expand military capabilities in other areas of the island. Under this prism, the simple possibility that Russia or China can establish military facilities in Greenland represents an unacceptable risk: from there, they could deploy weapons of intercontinental reach only 2,000 km from the US territory. A Yasen-M class Diplomatic tension With this context we arrive at the news of these days. General Cavoli’s statements occur in a political high voltage environment between the United States and Denmark, Sovereign Nation on Greenland. The renewed Donald Trump’s insistence In acquiring the island, it has revived a diplomatic conflict dating from its first mandate. Plus: the Recent visit of vice president JD Vance to Island caused a strong rejection by local and Danish authorities, who met to stage your unit Faced with US desires for annexation. At the same time, Secretary of State Marco Rubio moved to Denmark to calm the situation and reaffirm the strength of the bilateral relationship, although tensions remain latent. One More Thing. While the persecution of Russian submarines is the central axis of the strategy, there is much more. To begin with, Greenland also offers other military advantages: its radar infrastructure It allows early detection of ballistic releases, which gives the US government additional time to respond to an attack. In addition, its position at the northwest of the Atlantic makes it a crucial logistics point within the framework of any Arctic or Intercontinental conflict. Although Iceland already houses American anti -submarine aircraft squads that cover the Giuk gap, Greenland could offer redundancy, extended reach and greater operational flexibility. Geopolitics in the ice. So things, and while the debate persists on whether the United States really needs Acquire Greenland Or simply reinforce its presence in the area, the truth is that the island has ceased to be a remote block of ice to become a strategic focus of the first order. The growing Arctic militarizationthe resurgence of Russian naval power and The global competition For the control of polar routes they place Greenland in the center of a new geopolitical board. Its value does not reside in its demography, economy or tourist attraction, but in its ability to influence the balance of power between rival powers. In times of submarine cold war, every kilometer of coast vigilated is worth its weight in gold, and Greenland, today more than ever, he tells much.

They have lost more than 208,000 million in one day

The already turbulent business of business and finance has been shaken by the earthquake of the tariffs that the US imposed on all the countries of the world, regardless of whether its only inhabitants They were penguins and seals. The immediate consequences has been a general fall in the main stock markets, which has especially affected the titans of technology and luxury, eliminated from a stroke more than 208,000 million dollars of their balances in a single day, According to estimates Bloomberg. According to Forbeslosses for the 3,000 most important millionaires reached 270,000 million.

why women usually live more than men

by

Rare is the country or society where the life expectancy of men is greater than that of women. To explain this phenomenon we can pull intuition that perhaps tells us that men have a greater affinity for the activities that put them at risk, from tobacco consumption to recklessness at the wheel. Although there is something really in this explanation, this is only part of the story. Genetics. Now, a team of researchers He has discovered A genetic mechanism that could be protecting women from cognitive deterioration associated with age. A mechanism that could also partly explain the greatest longevity of these in front of men. Chromosomes turned off. The human being (As a general rule) It has 23 pairs of chromosomes, of which one is linked to our sex. In cases where a person inherits an X chromosome and a chromosome and, the second predominates and the first is latent, the sex that develops is the masculine. In cases where two X chromosomes are inherited, one of them remains active and the other “sleep”, sex would be in this case the female. This is still a model and nature is capricious, sometimes it surprises us. The last surprise has been starred in some genes on this sleeping X chromosome: it turns out that the “dream” of these genes was not so deep. In the hippocampus. In EK new study, the responsible team detected that about twenty genes on the silent X chromosome were reactivated In hippocampus cells of the mice in which the study was conducted. This activation was given in the subsequent stages of life and, to occur in the hippocampus and by the genes involved, it could imply a greater capacity to maintain cognitive abilities in old age. “In typical aging, women have a brain that seems younger, with less cognitive deficits compared to men,” pointed in a press release Dena Dubal, co -author of the study. “These results show that the silent x females are later reactivated later in life, probably helping to slow down cognitive deterioration.” The team indicates that, among the 22 genes that “escaped” silence, one stood out: PLP1 (Proteolipid Protein 1). This gene contributes to the creation of Myelina protective substance that surrounds neuronal connections and whose deterioration is linked to the appearance of diseases such as sclerosis. Animal models. The team conducted its study in laboratory mice, combining two differentiated lineages from these to clearly differentiate the two X chromosomes and the two genes in each animal. By measuring gene expression in the animals hippocampus, they observed a reactivation that occurred in females at 20 months of life, something that would be equivalent to the 65 years of life in humans. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Science Advances. And in humans? Now, the team investigates whether this late activation is also given in older women. As explainedThere are reasons to think that it is the case. In some brain samples studied, it has been found that women had high levels of the PLP1 protein in the same regions as the study mice.

tariffs, refinery closure and overproduction

by

Energy expert Javier Blas He has shown Through the social network X (old Twitter) as the price of Brent barrel, it has suffered one of its greatest falls in recent decades. In just two days, I know It has collapsed $ 10.4, Brent barrel at $ 65.14. This strong descent reminds other historical falls such as the Ukraine War in 2022, the Covid-19 Pandemia and the Price War in Saudi Arabia in 2020, the 2008 global financial crisis and the Gulf War in 1991. Short. According to has had access Reuterscrude oil has been driven by The announcement of tariffs by US President Donald Trump. These tariff measures, They have given much to talkThey have generated fears about global economic growth and energy demand. A blow after another. In the last years of fluctuations and political uncertainty, we must add the closure of refineries. As has advanced Oilpriceone in five global refineries faces closing risk, despite the fact that the demand for fuel is still increasing. This imbalance between supply and infrastructure is generating additional tensions in the market. In addition, operators seem to have lost confidence in a robust and sustained recovery of energy consumption, which has led to massive positions of positions in futures markets. OPEC+ continues on the same path. In recent statements They have decided Accelerate its production increase schedule, adding 441,000 barrels per day in May, as part of one to gradually add 2.2 million barrels per day to the market. This increase in crude could put even more down pressure on oil prices, also taking into account Kazakhstan that does not stop producing. From the New York Timessome analysts have interpreted this movement as a gesture towards Trump, who seeks to reduce fuel prices, while others see them as a way to prevent members from exceeding their production quotas. A downward trend? This whole situation may be maintained in the short term. On the one hand, tariffs and overproduction of the OPEC+ can make the price continue. On the other hand, the closure of some refineries could keep the prices of derived products, such as gasoline and diesel. Thus, although the price of crude is still low, the imbalances in supply and infrastructure could maintain tensions in the energy market. The coming months will be crucial to determine whether this fall is a temporary anomaly or a prolonged trend.

In case they have not been rare enough in recent weeks, now a record storm is being formed in the middle of the Atlantic

by

While the next Nuria front already causes problems on the peninsula, meteorologists begin to focus on what comes next. And what comes next is, As González Alemán saysa great Atlantic storm. But a very rare: possibly the deepest ever registered on these dates. A very strange Atlantic. As we have been in a couple of years of rain, our conversations have focused on accumulated, overflows and reservoirs. However, we have paid little attention to the cause of all this: a circulation and an atmospheric dynamic in the Atlantic that are “really interesting and worthy of study.” Another rarity. In the next few days, According to the models“We will see the formation of a great very rare Atlantic storm, with its 969 hpa.” That is, a storm that could “be recorded (depth) for the time we are.” What does this mean? In the same way that an anticyclone is a high -pressing area, a storm is essentially a low pressures zone. That, for practical purposes, means that there is what is called “Convergence of air on the ground”; That is, the surrounding air goes to these areas to “fill” the hole and generate surface currents that, ultimately, are what gives that characteristic shaped shape. In weather jargon, more “depth”, less pressure. And “lower pressure”, more numerous and powerful currents. Do we have to worry? It is the key question because, as we know, Everything seems to indicate That as of April 11 the rain will be present in Spain yes or yes. That could square with the arrival of fronts linked to this storm. However, it is not so clear. In the first place, because the fact that it will rain more than normal during Holy Week does not tell us how to rain. We already know that, roughly, in Spain we have two types of storms: those caused by the Danas (which are not very useful) and cause them the deep storms (which, as has happened this March, are fantastic for the reservoirs). There is more, of course; But this scheme is worth understanding that we do not talk about the tables of the law. Will it rain? It seems that. But we don’t know how. And secondly? That the effect of storms on Europe depends on the rest of the pieces on the board. The best example is the map that heads this piece: according to the model, there is a dorsal that blocks its arrival to the peninsula. This does not mean anything, really. They can almost pass a dozen different scenarios. However, most likely right now is that storm becomes a curious fact without serious effects in the country. And as we are, it would not be bad.

China has responded to US tariffs attacking one of its weak points: rare earths

by

As expected, the Chinese government has not been left with a crossed arms before The tariffs prepared by the USA. Just 24 hours after Donald Trump releases the taxes to be applied to The importation of most products Coming from abroad, the administration led by Xi Jinping has responded. And he has done it with forcefulness. On April 10 China will impose a 34% tariff to all imports from the US. The choice of that day is not casual. And is that the tariffs approved by the Donald Trump administration will take effect on April 9. Just a day before. Presumably the Chinese government has chosen to keep a few days of margin in the hope of reaching an agreement with its American counterpart and relax a little tension. China has decided to press the US more than ever with rare earths China’s response to the US does not only go through new tariffs; He has also chosen to suspend the import licenses of the products belonging to six US companies, as well as imposing more controls on the export of some rare earths. This is not at all the first time that the Xi Jinping government decides to pressure the US and its allies establishing limitations to the export of these raw materials. In fact, on December 21, 2023 the Chinese administration decided to restrict export of some of its rare earth processing technologies, shaping a maneuver that pursues defend their strategic interests in full confrontation with the US and its allies. And at the beginning of December 2024 He chose to prohibit The export of critical minerals to the US. On December 21, 2023, the Chinese administration decided to restrict the export of some of its rare earth processing technologies Among them are three essential chemical elements for the semiconductor industry (Gallium, Germanio and Antimony), as well as some materials that are characterized by their extreme hardness, and which, therefore, can be used for military applications. An important note before moving forward: Rare earths are a real treasure. To this peculiar group of chemical elements belong some metals as elusive and with names as suggestive as neodymium, promised, gadolinium, ititrium or scandio, among others. Some of them are relatively scarce, and, in addition, they are not usually found purely in nature, but what makes them so special are their physicochemical properties. Its characteristics are beyond the reach of the other elements of the periodic table, which has caused that during the last decades they are consolidated as A very valuable resource In numerous industries, especially in those of semiconductors, electronics and renewable energies. This is the reason why rare earths They are so important to the US. We still do not know what reach the new export controls of the rare earths that the Ministry of Commerce of China has just approved, but as soon as we have more information we will include it in this article. The cards are on the table. The US and China still have five days ahead to reach an agreement before their new taxes enter into force. We will see if they are really willing to relax the tension. Even if it’s just a bit. Image | Lio voo More information | CN Wire In Xataka | The US will not be able to contain the technological development of China. Experts from the chips industry forecast it

A 54%tariff, an iPhone of $ 2,300 and no easy output for Apple

by

Trump has announced A tariff pack He has shaken the markets and put Apple in the spotlight. The company, which manufactures most of its devices in Asia, faces 54% tariffs for products from China, 46% for Vietnam, and 26-27% for India. Just the countries where it has concentrated its production. Apple opted for diversify its manufacture After Trump’s first presidency, but this strategy It has been counterproductivesince the new tariffs affect precisely all their production centers. There is no escape. It is the same that has happened To another company closely linked to Apple: Nike. Why is it important. The Impact for Apple is double: financial and industrial. The company depends on its devices to generate 75% of its almost 400,000 million dollars in annual income – the rest comes from services. This tariff imposition could increase its annual costs by about 8,500 million dollars, reducing its benefits in approximately 7%. Its action – like those of many other technological ones, although Apple’s even more – has noticed, with a 9% drop and another 5% in the Premarket Friday. And now what. Apple’s options are limited and none is ideal: Absorbing tariff costs, which would erode their profit margins, which are so baggy (around 25%) as sacred for directive and investors. Move consumers cost through important price increases. And Apple has a much less elastic demand than the rest of the brands, but also average prices closer to the limit that the client can assume. Combine both strategies, distributing the impact and waiting for the result to be as favorable as possible to your interests. Another option is to get a tariff exemption such as the one already obtained in Trump’s first legislature. In figures. The analysis of Rosenblatt Securities project that Apple would need to increase the price of its devices to 43% if you wanted to keep your current margins. This would mean: A iPhone 16 base would go from $ 799 to $ 1,142. A iPhone 16 Pro Max With 1 TB of storage could reach $ 2,300 (from 1,599). Even the iPhone 16Elaunched in February to $ 599, it would rise to $ 856. The context. Apple has cultivated a relationship with Trump for years that allowed him to avoid tariffs during his first administration. Tim Cook attended Trump’s inauguration and promised large investments in the United States. And has received Trump’s presidency With much better predisposition than in 2017. In February, Apple announced an investment plan of 500,000 million dollars In the United States, including a plant in Texas and 20,000 jobs in research and development. However, he has not achieved the exemption he obtained in 2018. The background. Cook has commented several times Apple’s difficulty to produce in his own country, referring among other reasons to the scarcity of the type of qualified personnel in something so specific. Apple, despite its enviable position in inertia of income, margins and stock capitalization, was already coming from some previous turbulence. For example, iPhone sales without expected growth or His difficulties with the implementation of his AI. Now, a tariff crisis. In summary. The clash between the Trump administration and companies such as Apple (but not only Apple) is a clash between two opposite ways to see the economy: the national protectionism of the first and the optimized globalization of the second. Looking ahead to the consumer, the message is clear: we can prepare for some more expensive iPhone. In the face of Apple, less margin to innovate for the reduction of its benefits. In any case, it will depend on what the company’s response is, if you get an exemption or if there is negotiation in extremis before April 9.

How to activate chatgpt in Siri to ask artificial intelligence things through the wizard

by

Let’s explain How to activate chatgpt in Siriso that you can use the Openai assistant in the iOS assistant. Siri has won some new powers with Apple Intelligence, although there are still several that are yet to come. However, one of its most interesting options is to be able to use Chatgpt. This way, You can ask chatgpt things directly through Siri and without needing to have the official app. You will even be able to link your OpenAI account in the event that you have a payment version of your AI. Doing it is quite easy, although the first time you will have to activate it. These Apple Intelligence functions are available to iPhone from 15 Pro and 16 that have iOS 18.4 and higher versions. Also for iPads with M1 chip onwards or A17 with ipados 18.4 or higher, as well as mac with M1 or superiors with macOS 15.4 or higher. Activa Chatgpt in Siri The first time you want to use chatgpt, you have to Ask Siri to tell Chatgpt somethinga command with which you ask that it invokes Openai’s AI. For example, tell him to draw. When you ask for this, Siri will tell you that you have to activate chatgpt, and then you must click on the button Start using. This will make a necessary data download that can last a few minutes. It will also start a configuration process in which you are informed of the functions, and where you have to click on the button Following On a couple of screens. Now, you have to enter the section Apple Intelligence and Siri of the adjustments of iOS, and click on the chatgpt option within the section Extensions. Here you will have a section where you can link your Chatgpt account. I recommend you deactivate Confirm Petitions to ChatgPTbecause if you have this option activated, every time you ask Siri for something for OpenAi’s AI, you will ask you to confirm the action by clicking a button. Everything will be faster if you have it disabled. Now you can use chatgpt whenever you want in Siri. You just have to Tell him a voice command mentioning that you want to do it chatgpt. In addition to this, if you ask that you look for something that Siri cannot find, such as information or performing some actions, it will also refer Chatgpt without saying anything.
