Xiaomi smart glasses arrive in Spain at a very low price. They are just missing a small detail

by

Xiaomi, for a long time, has not been a smartphone brand. It is an ecosystem brand. And to close the product circle it presented its Xiaomi AI Glasses. While these end up landing (or not) in Spain, the company has just quietly brought its Mijia Smart Audio Glasses. A quite different alternative in design to the formats we are used to for a simple reason: they are glasses purely focused on audio. You see it, you hear it. This is the slogan of Mijia, Xiaomi’s ecosystem sub-brand, for its Smart Audio Glasses. These are not the smart glasses we are used to. They are a device designed for audio functions. They have compatibility with both Siri as with him Google Voice Assistant. They have a voice recorder, included for calls. Real-time noise cancellation. Real-time notifications A design of… glasses. One of the main problems with alternatives with double chambers is the thickness of the temple. Being simpler glasses, these Audio Glasses have an appearance that could easily pass them off as normal glasses. In fact, the thickness of the rods is only 5mm. The chassis weighs only 27.6 grams. The hinge promises more than 15,000 bends and is detachable in case we need to replace it. They have polarized lenses that not only filter 99.9% of ultraviolet light, they also filter reflections and 25% of blue light. The design is finished in titanium. The controls. To interact with these Xiaomi glasses we will have two solutions. The first is to use its temples, with touch controls. These allow you to enable calls, alerts, start recordings… Of course, while we are recording a small indicator light will turn on, so that there is evidence that we are recording. The second method is to use its app, through which we can manage recordings, connected devices, gesture control and even find the glasses by emitting a sound if we can’t find them. The autonomy. If you are wondering how long the battery of a product like this lasts, the answer is: little if you use them a lot, enough with logical use. They promise up to 13 hours of continuous playback, 9 hours in calls and an average of a day and a half of use. Why is it important. The Mijia Smart Audio Glasses are not just glasses focused on audio, they are proof that Xiaomi wants to bring to Spain a product ecosystem that, sooner or later, will end up competing with giants like Go with your RayBans. The integration of the Xiaomi ecosystem as a Trojan horse in Spain It is something we have been talking about for a long time, bringing its ‘Human x Car x Home’ philosophy to all aspects: smartphones, appliances, smart accessories, cars… and even robots. Styles and price. The Mijia Smart Audio Glasses are now on sale in the Xiaomi Spain website in three different mounts: Pilot Style: 179.99 euros Browline: 179.99 euros Titanium: 199.99 euros Image | Xiaomi In Xataka | Meta is so serious about smart glasses that its catalog is already a mess: this is how the new models differentiate themselves

Elon Musk says AGI will arrive in 2026. He said the same thing last year

by

Artificial general intelligence or AGI is the great goal that AI gurus keep mentioning. From Sam Altmanpassing through Zuckerberg and his superintelligence teameven of course Elon Musk. The problem is that they are already beginning to repeat themselves and this whole thing sounds more and more like a huge déjà vu. Today he doesn’t trust, tomorrow he does. Surely you have come across this nice sign in some of those authentic bars or shops. The AGI is starting to sound exactly the same. They count in Gizmodo that Elon Musk has set a date for the arrival of the long-awaited AGI: 2026. He recently said that Grok 5, which will be launched next year, had 10% chance of getting the AGI and it seems like he’s now upping his ante. During an xAI meeting, Musk stated that he is confident that the company’s ability to scale its computing power will help them achieve AI that surpasses human intelligence. Everything good, except because in 2024 he said that the AGI would arrive in 2025. He hype and the calm. What happened to Musk is further proof of the disconnect between the discourse of the “sellers” of AI and the experts who make AI. Altman, Musk and Zuckerberg start from the idea that the more AI scales (that is, the more investment is made), the sooner AGI will arrive. From there exorbitant investment in data centerssome the size of entire cities. On the other side we have AI researchers and developers, whose speech is much more realistic. Yann LeCun recently saidconsidered the godfather of AI, that the path to achieving AGI is not language models, but world models. Research also points in that direction and recently we talked about how language is not the same as intelligenceso the current path seems more like a dead end. Andrej Karpathy, co-founder of OpenAI, has also spoken out, and in his opinion the AGI will arrive, but it will take at least another decade. Musk’s other predictions. According to Business Insiderin the meeting with xAI employees, Musk also talked about the construction of data centers in space, an idea with which several companies are flirting in view of the energy problem. Musk related this infrastructure to his plans to colonize Mars and pointed to the possibility that Tesla Optimus robots were the operators of these infrastructures. It hasn’t always been so optimistic. In 2017 issued a warning: “It is urgent to regulate artificial intelligence before it becomes a danger to humanity.” Maybe 2017 sounds very far away, but we don’t have to go that far back. In 2023 signed a letter with other personalities from the technological world in which he called for AI laboratories to pause model development for at least six months due to the immediate danger of a replacement of humanity. Today he believes that AGI is imminent and defends that AI will do everything for us and that “working will be optional.” Musk’s speech on AI has taken a radical turn, especially now that he has an AI company.

will arrive in space with a prototype spacesuit for ESA

by

Until now, when we thought about Decathlon, a breathable t-shirt, a hiking backpack or that idea of ​​making sport accessible to everyone came to mind. That same company, founded in 1976 in Francehas taken an unexpected step: has collaborated in the development of EuroSuit, a spacesuit prototype that will be tested on the International Space Station. It is not about opening a new market, but about participating for the first time in a European space exploration project together with specialized players in the sector. The mission in which this prototype will be tested has its own name: εpsilon. This is how he baptized the European Space Agency the first expedition of Sophie Adenotscheduled for 2026 and destined for the International Space Station. The name refers to the fifth letter of the Greek alphabet and represents the idea that, in space exploration, each individual contribution can be small, but significant. The accompanying emblem, featuring a hummingbird and surrounded by tiny dots, reinforces that message: great achievements require many discrete contributions. A usability evaluation, not a presentation. EuroSuit is a prototype of an in-vehicular suit that will be tested on board the ISS through a series of planned test sequences: checking whether it promotes mobility, whether it adapts correctly to the body, whether it can be manipulated without assistance and whether it maintains reasonable performance in real conditions. What is sought is not to launch a definitive product, but to obtain data that allows us to know if this type of European design can advance towards an operational suit. The prototype does not arrive at the International Space Station as an individual project, but as part of the program coordinated by the CNES for the εpsilon mission. From Toulouse, the Cadmos center supervises both EuroSuit and other experiments focused on physiology, medical technology, radiation or control of microorganisms. This structure allows us to observe how the devices behave in real conditions of use and collect valuable data for future missions. EuroSuit will be evaluated in that context, with the same rigor as the rest of the tests. When textile knowledge enters orbit. Spartan Space leads the development of EuroSuit and Decathlon brings its expertise in textiles, mobility and functional design. The project is presented as a collaboration that allows adding capabilities without the need for all actors to come from the aerospace sector. The objective is to check if the practical approach to sports equipment can be useful in operations within the International Space Station and if it makes sense to continue with this development model for future European missions. As it is an intravehicular suit, EuroSuit is not intended to replace the pressurized suits used in extravehicular activities or to accompany the astronaut throughout their stay in orbit. It is located in another layer: that of operations within the ship that require protection, comfort and ease of use. It is designed so that the astronaut can put it on and take it off in less than two minutes, without assistance, something unusual in this type of clothing and which could be relevant in case of emergency.

Portable batteries are part of urban infrastructure in China. I have tried them and I need them to arrive in Europe

by

After a decade of writing about gadgets and tens of thousands of miles of travel under my belt, a few weeks ago a destination managed to make me nervous. I was traveling, for the first time, to China. A few days before leaving, I realized that I did not have any batteries with the necessary certification and buying them in Spain is complicated. My idea was to get one there, but to my surprise I came across reality: hives of external batteries on every corner. Below I will tell you about my experience renting one and testing its loading speed. Powerbanks as urban infrastructure. A few months ago, my colleague Javier He already commented on his fascination with this ecosystem of external batteries that anyone can rent. It is really not something so new, since it has running since 2017 and its concept is very interesting. In China we need the cell phone for everything (AliPay and Wechat They are two apps that are your bank, your transportation card, your payment card, your way of ordering in restaurants and much more) and it is something that drains the battery. Therefore, the idea arose to locate stations with several external rental batteries at strategic points in the city. The market is dominated by four companies, they are in the main cities and the process is as simple as: Scan the station’s QR code. Take one of the removable batteries. Use them while we eat or move. Return them to any other point on the network (it does not have to be at the station where we took it). Photo: Xataka Photo: Xataka Photo: Xataka Photo: Xataka Photo: Xataka Photo: Xataka renting one. For me, who went with a iPhone 16 in your pocket (whose battery is no wonder), having something like this available was a lifesaver. And, since science doesn’t do itself, during breakfast I rented one available at my hotel with the intention of using it while I ate and returning it just before leaving. The process is indicated just above these lines and, in my case, I used AliPay. Photo: Xataka You have to go with the application previously configured and, in my case, I loaded a Revolut prepaid card. I didn’t have any problems during the week I was in Beijing. I scanned the QR code of the charging station with AliPay itself and… blessed translation system. It works when it wants and it translates some things regularly, but enough to understand it. The price is 0.12 yuan per minute (about 0.014 euros), but since I don’t have a bank account in China, I had to pay a deposit of 99 yuan (about 12 euros). As soon as I paid, the app told me what power bank I had to remove it and the station itself made the corresponding battery LED flash. To load. Charging experience. The first thing I liked is that you don’t need absolutely anything other than the battery. This includes a USB-C, Lightning and even micro-USB cable. They are short cables, but they are appreciated so you don’t have to carry yours in your pocket. It has LEDs that indicate the charge level and there really isn’t much more to say about the design. Regarding their characteristics, it depends, but they usually have 5,000 mAh and the big asterisk is in the power. 5V/2.4A It is about 12 W and that implies that it will charge at a slow speed. But hey, it is designed so that you can carry it for a while or while you eat and spend at least half an hour/an hour with it. Photo: Xataka On my iPhone 16, the charging times were as follows: I started with 26% battery and in 30 minutes I reached 45%. At 60 minutes it had reached 64%. After 90 minutes it was charged up to 82%. As I say, a slow experience, but I see it as feasible to spend an hour eating or walking between stores, and recovering 38% allows you to survive the rest of the day. When you return it, you have a map where you see all the available stations. I simply went to a different one, clicked on the finalize the transaction button, scanned the QR again and inserted it into the indicated slot. The final price was 14 yuan after almost two hours in my possession, about 1.73 euros to my account. And, the next day, I already had the 99 yuan deposit back in my Revolut. Reviews. Discussing the move with our teammates, we agreed that the price is not high for us, that we use the euro and for those 1.7 euros, well… it allowed me to continue the rest of the day. But we also wonder how the Chinese would view those 14 yuan. And it seems not very well. One of the complaints It is precisely that the price has been increasing in some points. If at the beginning it cost one yuan per hour, now it ranges between two and six. The reason is that it depends a lot on the location (more or less tourist areas, hospitals, hotels, bars, etc.). Coupled with the fact that it is a very fair power and cell phones have more and more battery life, it is almost better to buy an external battery if you know that every now and then you have to rent at one of these stations (which, in addition, can be full at times and you have to go around looking for another one to return the battery. The businesses themselves have also been dissatisfied at times, since it is a market monopolized by a few companies that, evidently, control both the rental price and the profits. Future. Despite this, for tourists, it is an extremely attractive option due to its convenience and because, let’s not fool ourselves, the exchange rate to our currency is favorable to us. And for the industry, it represents an important benefit. In 2020, … Read more

They arrive in the middle of the offensive of the Chinese electric companies

by

Tesla has presented in the United States the new “Standard” versions of its two most popular models: the Model 3 and the Model Y. They are the most affordable versions of the range and arrive at a time when the brand seeks to strengthen its position in the face of pressure from competitors. Although the new models already have prices and delivery windows in the US market, in Europe – including Spain – there is still no confirmation about their availability or how much they will cost if they finally reach the old continent. In the United States, the configurator shows the Model 3 Standard RWD at $36,990 and the Model Y Standard RWD at $39,990, base amounts before taxes and handling fees. CNN places the first deliveries between December and January for the Model 3 and between November and December for the Model Y. Compared to the Premium versions, the discount is around $5,000. With this move, Tesla seeks to reinforce the entry-level attractiveness of the range in a more competitive environment, without yet announcing changes for Europe. Europe looks at Tesla, but new versions have not yet arrived For now, Tesla’s movement is not reflected in the European configurator. In Spain, the screenshots that we have reviewed show the rear-wheel drive Model 3 at 39,990 euros in cash and the rear-wheel drive Model Y at 44,990 euros, without the “Standard” name or visible equipment adjustments. The card information preserves known autonomy and performance. As of today, Europe continues with the previous offer and without announcing prices or availability for these new variants. Tesla has not redesigned the vehicles from scratch: both ‘Standards’ adopt a metal roof instead of tinted glass. In the Model Y, in addition, the headlights are divided into two independent lenses instead of the continuous light bar. The structure and bodywork remain identical to those of the current Model 3 and Model Y, so the cost adjustment comes through changes in finish and small aesthetic details. Beyond the price adjustment, Tesla insists that the Standard versions offer the same digital ecosystem as the more expensive models. They incorporate a 15.4-inch screen with access to Tesla Theater and Tesla Arcade, comfort modes such as Sentry, Dog and Camp, route planning and vehicle control from the app. The front seats are heated and combine textile and vegan leather, with a heated steering wheel. Tesla has also highlighted the presence of ‘Grok AI’. According to data published by Tesla, the declared range for the Model 3 and Model Y Standard reaches 321 miles, equivalent to about 517 kilometers. The batteries used and the exact motors are not detailed, but the company describes both models as “extremely efficient.” Tesla has not yet offered figures adapted to the European WLTP cycle. The launch of the new Model 3 and Model Y “Standard” comes in an increasingly competitive US market, where electric vehicles are no longer an exclusive territory for Tesla. Brands such as BYD, Hyundai, Nissan or General Motors have expanded their catalog with more affordable models and comparable ranges. In Europe, the pressure is also noticeable: Chinese manufacturers are gaining presence and traditional groups are adjusting prices and strategies to avoid losing ground. As we say, in Europe there is still no confirmation about the arrival of the Model 3 and Model Y “Standard”. Tesla has not communicated dates, prices or details about whether these vehicles will maintain the same name as in the United States or if they will replace the current rear-wheel drive versions. The company usually introduces changes in a phased manner, and the European configurator continues without showing any changes. Until news is announced, the catalog available in Spain and the rest of the continent remains the same as before the launch.

Dreame is Dyson’s Chinese rival. And now it is going to arrive in Spain copying Xiaomi’s strategy

by

Dreame has more than doubled its revenue in Europe in recent months and Spain has become its key market for the next step: replicating Xiaomi’s manual eight years ago. Why is it important. The Chinese company has not only come to sell vacuum cleaners. It has come to build a complete connected home ecosystem that fully competes with traditional European brands. Dyson, Philips or Bosch compete in design and brand prestige, but Dreame focuses on another aspect: offering 80% of the quality at 40% of the price. It is the same strategy that Xiaomi used to conquer Spain: launch an anchor product at an aggressive price, quickly gain market share and expand to the rest of the home. The current situation. Dreame has reported a 139% growth in its year-on-year revenue in Europe between January and July 2025, as published Expansion. Spain has exceeded the company’s initial expectations, which now plans to open two physical stores in Madrid and Barcelona. The brand already operates combining online sales with presence in MediaMarkt and El Corte Inglés. Although the greatest weight remains in digital, the physical channel is growing. The background. The expansion plan goes far beyond robot vacuum cleaners: At IFA 2025, Dreame presented a complete ecosystem of 22 product lines, 15 of them new. It will soon launch televisions, dishwashers, air conditioners and small kitchen appliances in Spain. It will also consolidate its personal care range with hair dryers and straighteners, and add robotic lawnmowers and pool cleaners. It is the exact copy of the Xiaomi model: You enter with a competitive technology product at a disruptive price. You gain market share quickly. You build loyalty with an ecosystem of connected devices. And you expand category by category until you become a relevant player in the market. Xiaomi, by the way, entered the field of large household appliances in Europe just a few days ago with the trojan horse strategy. In detail. The commitment to innovation is the central argument of Dreame. More than 60% of its staff is dedicated to R&D and it has more than 6,300 patents worldwide. At IFA he announced a cleaning robot capable of climbing stairs or with an arm to clean in difficult areas. But that race “for innovation” has also taken them to court. Dyson sued Dreame for marketing two stylers very similar to its Airwrap model. The Unitary Patent Court ordered the provisional withdrawal of two models of these hair stylers in Spain due to their similarity to the British device. Whether or not the blood reaches the river (Dreame is going to resort), it is evident that there is inspiration in Dyson. You just have to look, for example, at the air purifier in the image that heads this article. The contrast. The question we ask ourselves at this stage is how long Dyson, Philips, Bosch and company can last before losing market share. Dreame is the type of China in the shoe (pun intended) that makes the grown-ups very uncomfortable and against which there is no easy antidote. Traditional brands have built their business on design, prestige and high margins. Dreame offers them direct competition in technical quality at less than half the price. It is the same dilemma that European mobile phone manufacturers had to face years ago when Chinese brands arrived. AND We already know how that movie ended.. At stake. If Dreame replicates Xiaomi’s success in Spain, European brands will have to face a difficult decision: Or they lower prices (and margins) to compete. Or they accept a progressive loss of market share. The third option, less likely, is that one of them will progressively weaken and end up being bought by a Chinese competitor seeking quick access to European distribution and Western brand prestige. The same thing happened with the Swedish Volvo, the British MG or the Italian Pirelli: they all ended up in Chinese hands at some point this century. For now, Dreame avoids giving specific figures about its growth plans. But the strategy is clear: Spain is a key market for its international expansion and the company is going to redouble its efforts to expand its presence. The physical stores in Madrid and Barcelona are just the starting signal. In Xataka | Xiaomi is no longer a brand: there are several brands fighting over the same logo Featured image | Dreame

The Ukrainian army that is not afraid of Russia. They arrive as outdated machines and become robots for war

by

The year 2025 has been a radical change in the Ukraine War. We had seen drones with shotguns of double cannonrobots Lanzaluelaunmanned vessels With missilesairplanes With shotguns or even devices with kilometer cables of optical fiber Looking for its goal through algorithms. However, in recent months a change in trend has been accelerated. Because soldiers are no longer recruited, they are recruited directly robots. Even if they are antiques. Improvising on the front line. It Forbes counted. In an abandoned Soviet warehouse in Donetsk, Ukrainian soldiers and engineers transform old vehicles into non -manned combat systems, the called UGV. Under the command of Oleksandr, head of the Robotic Unit of the Antares Battalion, the workshops work thanks to raffles, donations and volunteer networks that Finish pieces and spare parts. Robots arrive with analog communications vulnerable to Russian electronic war and are completely comforted: new chassis, digital systems, StarlinkLte or encrypted links. Each conversion costs Between 750 and 1,000 dollarswithout counting satellite equipment, and requires maintenance after each mission. Once ready, the UGV are mostly destined for tasks logistics and evacuationtransporting ammunition, food or injured under enemy fire, although some are equipped with turretsmortars or electronic war modules. The speed remains limited and unstable connectivity, which forces them to use them mainly at night or in discretion conditions to avoid Russian kamikaze drones. Robots against the death zone. The proliferation of drones in Ukraine has extended The Russian “Kill” More than 15 kilometers behind the front line, causing entering or leaving positions to be one of the most lethal maneuvers. In fact, up to a 80% of the casualties Russians are already attributed to unmanned systems, and losses of Ukrainian logistics vehicles have forced multiply the use of UGVS for supplies and evacuations. The need is so high that in December 2024 the first compound Ukrainian assault was documented entirely by robotsand in July 2025 the 3rd Assault Brigade achieved an operation with Russian surrender Without own casualties. However, the UGV follow being vulnerable: day they are easy prey of FPV drones, and any signal failure can leave a wounded in the open field. Given this, some units are used as suicidal vehicles, launched against trenches, bridges or mined fields to detonate loads and open path. Another UGV development An accelerated race. Both kyiv and Moscow They experience With fleets of terrestrial robots, aware that the future of combat will depend on the mass integration of autonomous systems. Ukraine aspires to deploy 15,000 UGV By the end of 2025, supported by The Brave1 programwhile Russia shows prototypes With thermobáric launchers in their state media. The analysts They point That kyiv maintains advantage thanks to a decentralized network of start-ups and creative brigades, while Russia still depends on fragmented and volunteer efforts. At the same time, other global actors Like China They observe carefully the Ukrainian innovations to incorporate them into their own war doctrines. The test terrain in Donbás is accelerating a cycle of military innovation that in peace times would have been. Of logistics to direct fire. Ukrainian brigades already work for prototypes that They go further of the simple delivery of supplies: anti -aircraft turrets, UGVs kamikaze with Starlink to attack tanks, and modular platforms that can be adapted according to the mission. The main challenge is to reduce costs and simplify the operation to massify its deployment. The 28th mechanized brigade even presented a UGV equipped with A manpads Iglacapable of folding drones or low -level helicopters keeping operators covered. The vision is clear: an army in which the machines do the most dangerous work and the soldiers are preserved for control and supervision missions. The role of civil innovation. The rapid evolution of this robotic war It would not be possible without the direct intervention of Civil engineers and entrepreneurswhich have created a unique ecosystem of warlike innovation. Organizations as dignitas Ukraine They drive the Victory Robots programThey train soldiers in the management of UGVs and spread best practices among brigades. These initiatives They seek to build a “technological shield” that reduces human casualties and accelerates the adoption of autonomous systems. The next phase, they anticipate, will be the integration of artificial intelligence into terrestrial robots, multiplying their autonomy and efficiency in the battlefield. A robotic army. The Ukrainian bet for the UGV is not conjunctural, but part of a long -term strategy to compensate for demographic inferiority against Russia. If they manage to industrialize their production and stabilize the supply chain, these robots could become In spine From a hybrid army in which humans and machines fight side by side. Thus, the perspective of a future where entire brigades are accompanied by swarms of aerial drones and autonomous land vehicles no longer belong to science fiction, but to everyday reality of the Ukrainian front. For kyiv, robotics is more than a tool: it is the key to resist for years in a wear war and, perhaps, to define what the wars of the 21st century will be.

Neura will be in charge, it will arrive in 2026 and is already priced

by

During these days of Ifa in Berlin we have encountered the latest in humanoid robots. In this case, the proposal of the German Neura Robotics stands out: 4ne1his humanoid robot designed for the domestic public. With 180 centimeters high, 80 kilos of weight and a price of about 60,000 euros, this machine aims to reach homes in 2026 with the ambition to become the first truly useful cognitive robot for day -to -day basis. What makes 4ne1 special. Throughout the last years we have seen robots do practically everything. However, we have also seen an increasingly tangible approach to the domestic field. Tesla wants to get ahead With optimus And from Europe, Neura Robotics, is another of the closest companies to achieve this achievement. In the case of 4ne1, which is currently in its third generation, Neura has equipped it with 55 degrees of freedom of movementtact -sensitive artificial skin, 360 degree vision and ability to lift up to 100 kilos depending on the circumstances. The company promises That can iron, download the dishwasher, transport heavy objects and adapt to changing environments without specific programming. The brain behind the machine. 4ne1 integrates advanced artificial intelligence based on NVIDIA GR00T ModelJetson processors for local computing and its own operating system called Neuron OS. His “omnisensors” patented along with seven cameras allows him to distinguish between people and objects, recognize individuals and adapt their behavior to work directly with humans. During the IFA we have seen it in action, and although at first glance it seems little agile when performing domestic tasks, such as doing the casting, its versatility is its great trick to enter this market. Further beyond the environment domestic. Although the domestic approach is clear, 4NE1 is also designed for industrial and services environments. In fact, Hyundai showed a while ago Your construction capabilities. It has a 24 -hour autonomy that achieves it thanks to a smart battery system. It also reaches a maximum speed of 5 km/h. An ecosystem for all your robots. The project key is in Neuraversean open platform that works as an application store for robots. In this ecosystem, robots can share learning experiences, since what one learns, can all learn it simultaneously. Neura has established alliances with Vodafone for 5G, SAP and NVIDIA connectivity to enhance this smart network. Neura’s ambition in Europe. The company’s objective is to deliver five million units before 2030, positioning the European response to Tesla optimus. David Reger, CEO of the company, already assured A while ago “we are the first company to bring cognitive humanoid robots to the mass market.” “Neura is doing for robotics what the iPhone did for smartphones. We do it responsible, with a team in which our partners from around the world can trust,” he continued. It will not be cheap. The commercial launch planned for 2026 will be the fire test to determine if the domestic market is really prepared to integrate humanoid robots of 60,000 euros. Success will depend on a wide range of factors, and not only on the technical abilities of the robot. Its ease of use and the operation of that applications ecosystem will also be crucial to determine its adoption. We will have to wait to know if it ends up convincing. In Xataka | China has gathered more than 150 humanoid robots in Shanghai. Your message is clear: this is no longer about ideas, it goes from industry

The suicide of a teenager unleashed a crisis in Openai. We already have the first measures that will arrive in Chatgpt

by

The chatbots of AIs are in the spotlight for their possible risks on mental health, especially chatgpt. We recently deepened this problem following the accusations that Chatgpt was the culprit of causing delusions and even the suicide of a teenager In the United States. Although we already saw that reality is much more complex that a simple “the fault is AI”, OpenAi has responded to the wave of criticism and already has A package of measures that will integrate into chatgpt To avoid more similar cases. OpenAI’s plan. In response to the controversy after the case of Adam Raine, Openai has detailed the measures that will reach Chatgpt, which will focus on facilitating access to emergency services, contacting trustworthy people and reinforcing protection measures focused on adolescents.
