step by step creating the bot and adding artificial intelligence to it

by

Let’s explain to you how to create your own AI bot on Telegramso you can interact with it at any time. In this way, the bot will be yours and you can put the model of artificial intelligence whatever you want, whether Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude or whatever. To carry out this task we are going to use two services. First we will use BotFather of Telegram to create the bot, and then we will use the service Make to create a workflow or workflow that adds an AI, which in the case of our step by step will be Gemini, but you can use any other. But before we start, I must remind you that even if the bot is yours, everything you write will be sent to the Make servers to process the workflow and the AI ​​you choose. Therefore, be careful with writing personal details that may violate your security or privacy, because you will be giving them to these two companies. First you must create the bot The first thing you have to do is create a bot on Telegram using BotFather. To do this, write a message to the bot @BotFather and write to you as if you were a new user. Type the command /newbot to create a new bot, to which you have to give a name to identify yourself and a unique username to access the bot whenever you want. When you do it, it will give you two things, first the username and address of your bot to access it, and second an access token with various figures and letters. You have to save this token to use later. In the message that Telegram will return to you, will also give you a link to the bot you createdwhich will basically be t.me/@botname. This will be important for later. Also you can use BotFather options to customize your botputting a profile image, a description or whatever you want. We have explained all this to you in our post about BotFather. Now get the API of an AI Now we have to get an API from an AI. We will use the Free Gemini APIwhich although it has some limits in its use, will be useful for some tests without spending. To get it go to the website aistudio.google.com and sign in with your Google account. When you do, in the bar on the left at the bottom click on Get API Key. Now you have to click on the option Create API key that appears at the top of the screen you have created. This will open a window where you have to create the project for which you are going to use it in order to identify it, for example “Bot Telegram IA”. When you create the project, you can now create the API. When you have created the API, you will see that it appears in the list of API keys. You just have to click on the left, below where it says Clueand a window with the API will open, starting with “AIza–“. Now create the workflow Now let’s create the workflow or workflow using the service Make. Within this program we are going to create a new scenario. We start by clicking on the initial + for the first step, for which you have to write Telegram and choose the option Watch Updates within the options related to Telegram that will appear. When you do this the first time you will have to create a webhook. Basically, it will be like creating a connection, and by doing so you will be able to give it a name and when establishing the connection, you will only have to type the Telegram bot token that BotFather gave us. Once the connection is established, open the Telegram bot that you created in the app, and click on Start. When you do this, the message /start will be written. When you do this, go back to make.com and, at the bottom, press the button Run eleven. This will simply test the connection with the bot. Now, click on the + button on the right of Telegram Bot to generate a new module, and you will have to choose the module to generate an AI response. Simply type the name of the AI ​​you have a token for, in our case Gemini, and choose the option that means generating a response. A window will open to configure your AI. In it, you have to establish a connection using the APIwhich is what we have done above. You will also be able to choose the model you want to use. Keep in mind that the more advanced the model, the more credits the AI ​​will use, and your free API will have limited credits. Now comes the most complex part of all. You have to go to the section messages of this window, and in Item 1, in the field Role you have to put User. Now, in Parts you have to fill out Item 1 by putting in Message Type the option textand in text just below choose option 1. Message: Text. As before we have already executed our project with the Telegram bot, when you click on the value you will get suggestions based on the results of the bot. In these suggestions you will see the 1. Message: Text. You will recognize it in the next window because it is where it says /start, which is what we wrote to the bot. Down in System instructions go to Promptsand in the value of Prompt 1 you also have to put 1. Message: Text. Below, in Response Modalities you have to **choose only the option textdeactivating Imagebecause with the API we will not be able to generate images in our country. Now we are going to create the third step, that of sending the AI ​​response to the Telegram bot. To do this, create a new module, look for the Telegram … Read more

Hisense has found the key to improving the color on its 2026 Mini LED and Micro LED televisions: adding more subpixels

by

One of the challenges for television manufacturers is to evolve their technologies to improve their ability to represent color, without implying an excessive increase in production costs. Hisense seems to have found the key for its 2026 televisions to improve their image quality: add one more color subpixel to its matrix of Mini LED and Micro LED panels. The brand presented at CES 2026, which is being held in Las Vegas, two advances that seek to make colors more natural and precise: Mini LED evowhich adds a fourth cyan subpixel, and the evolution of its MicroLED panels with the RGBY Micro LEDwhich incorporates a yellow subpixel to its RGB matrix. Both changes allow televisions to better reproduce the most difficult-to-achieve color nuances. RGB MiniLED evo: cyan is the new white The televisions Current Hisense MiniLEDs They are based on thousands of small LED light diodes that illuminate the screen from behind, achieving better lighting control. This improves the contrast without sacrificing the brightness of the screen, being able to turn off more areas of the screen to achieve deeper blacks. In 2025, Hisense put on the table an evolution of that technology with RGB MiniLED, in which the white or blue mini LEDs were replaced by three RGB diodes (red, green and blue) to directly generate colorsinstead of using color filters as traditional LCD screens did. The MiniLED evo that Hisense has just presented goes one step further in this development and adds a fourth cyan subpixel to that RGB matrix. This intermediate color between blue and green helps reproduce complex tones that were previously only approximated by combining the three subpixels. Hisense’s solution is an adaptation to LED of what LG had been doing in its WRGB OLED panelsin which a white subpixel was added to improve brightness, although in this version the aim is to increase the color volume. Clear skies, water or certain skin tones look more natural and with softer gradients. In addition, local light management (local dimming) becomes more precise, reducing halos and poorly lit areas in scenes with high contrast. The introduction of this fourth subpixel increases the effective color gamut, achieving 110% coverage of the BT.2020 color space used as the professional cinema standard. Since, in essence it is an evolution (not a revolution) of the MiniLED RGB system that it already implemented last year in its top model, this new technology will be deployed to models ranging from 55 to 100 inches in a new UR9 and UR8 family, while the new MiniLED RGB evo panels will be limited to the 116UXS (which, as its name indicates, has a diagonal of 116 inches) as an evolution to the MiniLED RGB model of 2025. MicroLED RGB: three colors are no longer enough Along the same lines, Hisense has also presented improvements to the Micro LED RGB panels that it already presented in 2025 for its most premium range. As was the case with the Mini LEDs, the brand is committed to separating the color from the point of emission, replacing the blue or white diodes with three diodes that directly emit the RGB matrix. This is something that Samsung also has launched in its plans for 2026. However, in the variant presented by Hisense for 2026, a fourth yellow subpixel has been added along with red, green and blue, leaving an RGBY configuration. The yellow subpixel fills a critical gap in the spectrum that the three traditional colors cannot accurately cover. This addition improves the reproduction of warm tones and complex light transitions, such as those presented by skin, golden lights or sunsets, with softer and more natural gradients. For the moment, the new RGBY Micro LED is reserved for the 163MX RGBY model of no less than 163 incheswhich integrates millions of subpixels managed by a new processor and algorithms that balance brightness and color. The combination of greater precision in the backlighting provided by much smaller diodes and the incorporation of the yellow subpixel allows 100% of the BT.2020 color space to be achieved, bringing the quality of giant screens closer to those used in professional production. It’s a new era for LED The evolution that Hisense has presented is nothing more than confirmation that, although OLED represents an “affordable” way to obtain the best image quality, LED still has a lot to say in terms of quality and color volume. In the MiniLED evo, the addition of the fourth cyan subpixel allows intermediate colors between blue and green to look more natural, while in the RGBY microLED, the yellow subpixel improves the fidelity of warm and complex tones. In practice, these improvements translate into more consistent, natural and detailed images, without depending only on brightness or resolution. Hisense’s proposal for 2026 is presented more as an evolution in qualitative terms than as a revolution. It is a sign that the future of Mini LEDs and Micro LED involves optimizing the way colors are generated, using additional subpixels and controlling light emission with better processors and more refined algorithms.

The trend of adding protein to coffee was born on TikTok. And capitalism has taken note of this “functional coffee”

by

Drinking coffee is a very personal thing. You can do it because you like its flavorbecause you want to take advantage of its health benefits or even because you want that caffeine ‘shot’. It is also a social drink with that classic “let’s have a coffee”, but in recent years, coffee has also become a functional drink. Reason? The need to add protein to everything. And coffee chains have not been slow to surf the trend. The ‘profess’. Proteins are one of the pillars of a balanced dietbut if we do intense and regular sports, its intake becomes essential. The ideal is to get it from food, but protein powder (whether vegetable or whey) It is a quick and easy way to increase daily grams. The “normal” thing is to have a smoothie, but in 2021 a trend appeared on TikTok: the ‘teacher‘. Basically, it is the combination between ‘protein’ and ‘coffee’ and it is what you are imagining: enrich a coffee with protein powder. Hacking coffee. Named As ‘broistas’, a term that can be somewhat derogatory and combines ‘gymbro’ with ‘barista’, there were those who went directly to a cafeteria, ordered a long coffee and mixed it with their protein shake. Here the search is to convert coffee into a strictly functional drink that provides caffeine that allows you to perform more during the training session, burn more fat if that training is going to be cardio and add a few more grams of protein to the daily count. Dutch Bros menu Dutch Bros.. Evidently, coffee shops have taken note. The entire food industryIn fact, she has been on the protein diet bandwagon for years, with very particular labeling and higher prices in foods that have one or two more grams of protein per 100 grams than the unenhanced version (which is a ridiculous amount). And, as we say, the coffee shops have not wanted to miss that train of body worship. If people come, order a coffee and add it to their proteins, why not offer the combination directly? Thus, at the beginning of 2024, the coffee chain Dutch Bros. -very direct competition from Starbucks, at least on US soil- launched a series of protein drinks. Coffees like the Salted Caramel Protein Latte or the Salted Caramel Protein Mocha have 20 grams of protein and no added sugar. The key is their reduced-fat protein milk to which they have added proteins -casein-, and little by little they have been opening the range of protein versions of their most popular coffees. starbucks. Also in the American West, but somewhat further north, this protein coffee thing resonated. Starbucks wasn’t going to stand by while customers demanded something the competition was already offering, and just a few weeks agothey launched a protein drink line within your menu. It depends on what you choose, but there are milk foam options that provide about 15 grams of protein per drink in a large size, to others that use milk with whey protein that provides between 30 and 35 grams of protein per drink. As is logical at Starbucks, there are plenty of drinks available to choose from and it doesn’t look like it’s going to be a fad: it’s here to stay. Tressie Lieberman is the company’s chief brand officer and commented that it is something that “responds to the growing demand for protein by consumers.” And other companies are preparing their strategies, like Peet’s Coffee with its ‘Vitality Menu‘ with protein lattes. Necessary? I know esteem that the market for this functional coffee is valued at 4,000 million dollars and that it will reach more than 14,700 million by 2034. It is the consequence of that aforementioned cult of the body, especially in younger consumers, because it is an aid to reach the necessary grams of protein in a simpler way. However, there are those who are skeptical. Eating protein, especially if you practice sports, is fine, but nutritionists already warn that, while an essential nutrient, protein “should not be treated like fairy dust that we sprinkle on everything.” In the end, it all depends on each person’s nutritional needs and how convenient a shake is… or the pleasure of getting that protein from food.

There are those who are adding fungi such as cordyceps to coffee to lose weight. Science has many reservations

by

Coffee is a food, with numerous positive effects on our body. We get more and more about this Positive coffee actionbut we have determined to improve it adding supplements as proteins either Spirulina. One of the latest trends? Enrich coffee with fungi. So that? To lose weight. And here the evidence is not so clear that this trend of ‘Mushroom Coffee’ is so healthy that invites a coffee with cordyceps to drink. The promise. Eating mushrooms or fungi has nothing weird, but a few years ago we began to see how the food industry It began to add them to other foods to create improved versions of them. One of the first brands that added fungi to the cocoa or coffee was FOUR SIGMICan American company that creates “functional foods” and well -being supplements. That is, coffee is not only coffee: it has a series of additions vegetables to relieve these, support the immune system or accelerate weight loss. The latter is what a more recent grabs Trend in networks like Tiktokthe baptized as ‘Mushroom Coffee’. There are several brands that sell coffee with fungi Cordyceps coffee. The defenders claim that coffee (and other foods) can be enhanced with medicinal fungi whose compounds carry a series of positive effects. Among those fungi are Reishithe León hairhe Maitake or the Shiitake (great in broths)but also the most famous cordyceps. Yes, that parasitic fungus that makes Some ants become ‘zombies‘And what is protagonist of the Apocalypse of ‘The Last of Us’. These fungi can increase energy production and improve metabolic function, helping in the burning of fats. They can also help control hunger, stabilize glucose levels and have Probiotic properties that favor both digestion and nutrient absorption. Market. And it is not a bizarre or the US thing: you can Buy coffee With cordyceps In Amazon If you want the healthy effects of coffee more, Chow they announcegreater energy and improvement in your mental clarity. There are different estimates, but this coffee market is expected to grow at a rate of between 5.4% and 5.7% during the next decade. There are studies that place their value at 1,203.4 million dollars in 2023 with a growth up to 1,833.4 million by 2031. They are considerable figures, but we compare, the estimate of specialty coffee is 62,500 million by 2032 and that of the entire market It will be of 632,000 million for that year. But well, it seems that this trend, little by little, is consolidated and grows. The small print. The logic here seems simple. In the case of protein: if it is a good supplement and coffee is a good food, mixing them works. With fungi and coffee the same thing happens, but something that should not be overlooked: there is a lack of research. The relationship between coffee and weight loss is well documented, being a good stimulating before performing some training and selling the caffeine as supplement. But, although the properties of these fungi are also documented, evidence on coffee with fungi and its action in weight loss or mental well -being is limited. Clinical trials are missing that confirm its direct effectiveness to lose weight and most of those available studies are in animals. Also, as we read in VogueNutritionist Marta Marcè comments that it is not usually specified whether the extract is from the fruiting body (rich in properties) or the roots (less powerful), in addition to using very low doses. And sometimes It is not even the real fungus. Dangers. Although cordyceps has a bad reputation due to fiction products in which it has been the protagonist and its effect on some insectsusually has no health hazards. Cordyceps coffee is approved by the USDA -The United States Department of Agriculture-, but you have to take some things into account. It may produce some allergies in certain people and it is necessary Influence when combining it With other stimulating products or drugs, but most importantly, above all, it is to know where those fungi that supplement chocolate or cocoa. Marketing, already such Because here the danger is how that fungus has been manipulated and the example we have had in Colombia, where a health alert on cordyceps supplements not regulated or fraudulent. And if you dare to try it, be from reliable and out of curiosity, not so much for its numerous promises, that millions move in the other part of the world.

If you visit the website right now www.victoriassecret.comyou will not see catalogs or special offers. Instead, a warning appears that reports a cybersecurity incident. Victoria’s Secret has temporarily closed its website and has suspended some services in store while investigating what happened. A preventive measure. According to the company, the closure is part of a series of preventive actions adopted after detecting the incident. In the message they explain that they are “working tirelessly to completely restore operations”, although it is not specified when the page will be available again. The closure does not affect all countries. Although Victoria’s Secret’s main site remains closed, the measure is limited to the international version with .com domain. The website for the Spanish market Follow operational, as we have been able to check, and shows no messages related to the incident or limited operation signs. Many unknowns on the table. According to Bloombergin addition to the closure of the web and certain services in store, Victoria’s Secret has stopped part of its office operations. Some employees were left without access to their email accounts after password blocking, and customer service has also been paralyzed. The executive director, Hillary Super, recognized in an internal note seen by the aforementioned means that the recovery “will take time.” Meanwhile, we know that the company works with experts to clarify what happened, but has not provided details about the type of attack, the actual scope of the incident or if any data gap has occurred. It is not an isolated case. In recent weeks, several major brands of the textile and retail sector have also recognized cybersecurity incidents.
