OpenAi has just kick the AI board. Your new model is free and can be downloaded to use from the laptop

by

Although his name suggests a certain vocation of technological opening, Openai had been moving away from that spirit for some time. From long before the launch of Chatgptin November 2022, the company did not publish an open weight model. In fact, it is the first open weight model since 2019 (GPT-2). That has just changed. This Tuesday, OpenAi has announced GPT-Ossan open weight model under Apache 2.0 license that can be downloaded for free and, in its small variant, run even in a laptop. A movement that nobody expected at all, especially since all eyes were put in Lat the imminent arrival of GPT-5. What is GPT-Oss? GPT-Oss is a language model developed by OpenAI, capable of understanding text instructions and generating answers with a high level of coherence, context and utility. It is a variant of the GPT family, the same technology that gave rise to Chatgpt, but with a key difference: its weights are open. That is, you can download it, run it on your own computer and adapt it to your needs. For the first time in years, OpenAI launches a powerful model that is not tied to its platform. You can use it without internet connection, without depending on your servers and freely to customize it. And besides, it is free. That opens the door for developers, small companies or even advanced users can experiment with AI in their own terms. What means that the weights are open? When we talk about the “pesos” of a model are open, we refer to the internal numerical values that you have learned during your training. They are, in essence, the knowledge of the model: what allows you to reason, write, translate or generate useful answers. That OpenAi has released those weights means that anyone can download them, analyze them and use them outside their servers. It is not the same as releasing the complete source code or the data with which it was trained, but it is an important step: it allows you to execute the model in own environments, adapt it to concrete tasks or integrate it into products without having to go through the Openai API. So is it a really “open” model? Now, the weights are open does not mean that the model is completely open. GPT -Oss is not Open Source strictly speaking: OpenAi has not published the data with which the model or the full code of the training process trained. What has released, as we say, is the final result, the parameters learned, under a permissive license (Apache 2.0). That is why we talk about an open weight model, not open source, According to the standards of organizations such as the Open Source Initiative (OSI). Can I use it on my computer? It depends on the model. GPT-Oss occurs in two versions: one of 120,000 million parameters and a lighter of 20,000 million. The most powerful version requires a GPU of at least 80 GB of memory (professional environments). The 20B version is much more accessible: it can be executed on computers with 16 GB of memory, which opens the door to use in personal portables and PCs. It is already compatible with tools such as LM Studio (which we have used to try Deepseek and other models)flame.CPP or VLLM, which allows you to try it at home without connecting to the cloud or depending on OpenAi. Of course, it is recommended to have some technical experience to put everything in motion. It is compatible with tools such as LM Studio, Llama.CPP or VLLM. Where do I download it? Is it really free? Weights are available for free download mainly in Hugging Faceand can also be deployed through platforms such as Azure, AWS or Databricks. The two variants, 120b and 20b, together with the necessary documentation are available. OpenAI publishes GPT-Oss under Apache 2.0 license, which means that you can use it, modify it and adapt it for commercial purposes. Do not pay for download or use it at home. If you choose to execute it in the cloud or on a payment infrastructure, the cost will depend on the supplier you use. Is it easy to use or do you have to have a certain level of knowledge? Using GPT-Oss is not as complicated as training a model from scratch, but it is not a solution that works with two clicks. The models include clear instructions and are integrated into platforms such as LM Studio or Llama.cpp, which allow them to be executed at local ease. That said, you will need to understand basic concepts such as execution environment, models loading and parameter configuration. If you have already worked with other open weight models, it will not cost you. If not, there are guides available, but you will have to devote some time to put it to function as it is. What can this model do? GPT-Oss is a multi-support model. You can reason, generate text, write code, answer questions, search for information and operate external tools, such as python browsers or interpreters. All this is also compatible with agents based on workflows, useful for more complex and automated tasks. Openai states that the 120B model achieves a proximity with O4-MINI in reasoning tests, while the 20B model offers similar results to O3-MINI in Common Benchmarks, with a good performance in programming, reasoning for steps and use of tools. It is not the most powerful model of the house, but one of the most versatile that can be used without paying or depending on your API.

Take cars from China to Mexico. It sank with 3,000 vehicles on board after burning

by

It was called Morning Midas. Sailed on May 26 From the Chinese port of Yantai with more than 3,000 vehicles on board and destination to the Mexican port of Lázaro Cárdenas. It never arrived. On June 23, after several weeks to drift for a fire on board, the freighter He sank into deep water From the North Pacific, more than 600 kilometers southwest of Adak, in Alaska. It disappeared in silenceleaving behind a trail of smoke, steel and cars that will never touch the mainland. The fire began on June 3. According to the United States Coast Guardthe smoke came from the roof where electric vehicles were. On board 22 crew members were traveling. Everyone managed to evacuate in time in a lifeboat and were rescued without injuries to the freighter Cosco Hellaswhich was in the area. A freighter that remained to the Mercer in the middle of the ocean For days, Morning Midas was drifting, still wrapped in smoke. Rescue teams worked alongside Zodiac Maritime – the British ship of the ship – to evaluate the situation and prepare a possible recovery. But he didn’t have time. The combination of structural damage, bad weather and water entry ended up sinking it more than 5,000 meters deep. The cargo was as valuable as revealing: 3,048 vehicles, including 70 electric and 681 hybrids, According to data updated by the Coast Guard After verifying the information with Zodiac Maritime. Each unit possibly already had an assigned destination: a dealer or a buyer. Now they rest at the bottom of the ocean, without any possibility of recovering them. Morning Midas The history of Morning Midas clearly illustrates the scope of maritime car transport, a global chain that we rarely see but holds the flow of millions of vehicles a year. It also remembers other recent episodes. In 2023, the Fremantle Highway freighter, with about 3,000 cars on board –including about 500 electric-,burned for days at the North Sea. A crew member died. The ship ended up being towed to a port after a week of uncontrolled fire. Morning Midas That case led to the Dutch authorities to demand urgent improvements in emergency protocols for this type of transport. Since then, the focus on the difficulty of containing fires into ships that transport cars has been made. Morning Midas Zodiac Maritime has deployed several ships equipped with Anticontamination systems To monitor the area. According to the Coast Guardno discharges have been detected to date, although the risk is still present: the ship He transported 1,530 tons of fuelulo of low sulfur content and another 350 marine diesel. Maritime car transport is a key piece of industrial gear. And while loading more than 3,000 units on the same ship may seem shocking, the truth is that today is almost common. Manufacturers such as ByD have begun to operate their own ships. One of them is already in service and can move up to 7,000 electric cars on a single trip. It has not yet been confirmed whether the fire aboard the Morning Midas is related to any of the electric vehicles he transported. What is clear is that this type of incidents occur in full electric car boom. Each route that is planned is part of a learning process. And even if we still have no answers, there is a question that resonates: are we safely transporting thousands of high voltage batteries per sea?

Naples Airport has rejected a Boeing 787 with 200 passengers on board for a single reason: two meters long

by

Two meters. Not one more, not one less. Those have been the culprit that Naples airport had to reject a flight with origin in Philadelphia. Everything seemed to work without shocks on the morning of June 3. Until the passengers who had to land in Naples received the unpleasant surprise that they would land in Rome. The reason: the plane was too big for the airport. Six meters. That is the distance that differentiates a Boeing 787-8 from a Boeing 787-9. Both They are part of the Dreamliner family (which is also part of the Boeing 787-10) and are common on transatlantic flights since their autonomy widely exceeds 10,000 kilometers and have more than 200 places for passengers. The size in all cases is 60 meters but its length grows as the last name number increases. Thus, the Boeing 787-8 measures 57 meters long but the 787-9 already extends to 63 meters long. The 787-10 reaches 68 meters long. A small (big) difference. Those six meters long suppose a problem that is called 8 RFFS category airport (Rescue and Fire Fighting Services, for its acronym in English). This name refers to the aircraft that an airport can manage, according to the emergency and fire extinction services that it has at your disposal. In this case, the 8 RFFS category allows aircraft to be operated with a maximum size of 61 meters long. That is, it can handle the Boeing 787-8 but not the Boeing 787-9, which exceeds in two meters the dimensions established by the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization). In order to manage the landing of a Boeing 787-9 it is necessary for the airport to have a 9 RFFS category where airplanes are allowed to land up to 76 meters long. Better to Rome. This scenario did not contemplate in American Airlines when they decided that, for operational reasons, a Boeing 787-9 had to operate the Philadelphia-Naples route that the airline keeps open. Usually, this journey is made by a Boeing 787-8 (smaller) since They open the route last summer. In fact, in the press release of the Naples airport it is specified that the plane used will be the smallest of the Dreamliner line. But, as we said, last week American Airlines decided to send Naples a Boeing 787-9. When the plane It was 70 miles of his destiny he had to turn around and deviate to Rome. The problem was evident, from Naples they reported that they could not host the flight because their category prevents it. The plane was too big. Specifically, the two meters that exceeds an airport with 8 RFFS category can operate it. By bus. They explain in Business Insider that passengers had to cover the distance between both airports by bus, on a trip that took them from two to three hours, or by plane, in Routes operated by Ita Airways. The company apologized and alleged the American media that “operational limitations” had occurred that had prevented the plane in southern Italy. In CBS They point out that 231 passengers and 11 crew members who received, for any response from the company “apologies for the interruption of the trip” were traveling on board the aircraft, in a statement rescued by the media.

There is a World War II board game that lasts 1,500 hours. It is not known if someone has finished it

by

If you have to regulate that to prepare a board, learn the rules and put the game to invest an afternoon (and peak) with your friends for any board game, ‘The Campaign for North Africa’ It is not for you: a Wargame of mastodontic size whose duration and ambition are so monumental that it came out in an episode of ‘Big Bang Theory’. This is its story (and the time you have to book in your agendas of the next eight years). Historical context. ‘The Campaign for North Africa’ replicates with painful detail the development of the conflict that took place in North Africa, during World War II, between 1940 and 1943. There were campaigns in the deserts of Libya and Egypt, in Morocco, Algeria (the famous Torch operation) and in Tunisia. The combat occurred mainly between British and German forces, until the United States entered the conflict in 1942. The longest game ever produced. It is estimated that to play a complete game about 1,500 hours are needed (and has been defined as he Wargame More complex ever edited), and about ten players. It takes place over 100 shifts, each of them equivalent to a week of the real conflict. Combat is the least: here what you have to do is manage resources to an absolutely delusional end. The most famous meme linked to the game to record its psychotic level of detail is that the Italians need extra supplies of water to prepare pasta (in reality, an autoparadical wink of the creator who does not correspond to a real fact). Each box included, among other things, a map of 3 meters, 1800 cards and six books with rules, historical context and tables. And a dice. But why. After this nonsense is Richard Berghistorical designer of hundreds of war simulators, not all of World War II: in his curriculum there are games set in ancient Rome, in Waterloo, in the Mexican revolution, in the times of the Highlandersin the Middle Ages, in feudal Japan … This game was born, in reality, as a collaborative project for experts who worked at the editor Simulation Publications Inc. Six months later, the development was so exasperating that Berg had to take the reins, something that took two more years. At the end of that period they were so fed up that they threw it without him (often exhaustive) testing that these titles need to be balanced. But … Is it good? Not too much: the game came out in 1979, it was not a success of criticism or public, but it arrived at a time when the Wargames They invaded stores every week. Today it is considered more a very heavy joke than anything else (and very expensive: as it has not been reissued, copies are quoted for thousands of euros), but playing it is not especially fun: it consists of calculating percentages all the time to keep the account of how resources are exhausted. It has been as a redoubt for fans who decide to broadcast how they will be its weekends for the next ten years. Sheldon does like. In the end, the game has remained as a wink for fans with excess of free time, as attesting to its recognized leviísimally autoparadical character. In episode 16 of season 11 of ‘The Big Bang Theory’, Sheldon proposes to your friends Wait for Bernadette to give birth playing ‘The Campaign for North Africa’. Of course, they get bored quickly, but Sheldon has no problem playing their own shifts and those of their rivals. A perfect summary of the crazy dynamics of the wargames as ambitious as this: fascinating as a concept, too demanding in everything else.

A huge nurse drone with 100 kamikaze drones on board

by

The use of unmanned aerial vehicles has been redefining the modern military strategy. From their role in conflicts such as Ukraine, where Kamikaze drones have become key weapons, to real -time surveillance and intelligence missions, their presence is already indispensable. Now, How do you collect the Hongkonés SCMP newspaperChina has taken a new step with the Jiu Tian, A great altitude and long -range Nodriza drone that promises to change the rules of the game. First presented in the Zhuhai Aeronautical Hall in November, the Jiu Tian (its name can be translated as “high sky”) is a large -scale UAV, propelled by reaction engine and designed to operate above many medium -range air defense systems. It has an estimated autonomy of 7,000 kilometers and can reach altitudes of up to 15,000 meters. Its load capacity is not lower: it can transport up to six tons of ammunition or smaller drones, including merodeter ammunition and UAVS kamikaze units. The deployment platform, a key element The most striking aspect of the Jiu Tian is precisely its deployment platform function. From both sides of your fuselage, you can release up to 100 units of attack, which positions it as a central piece for so -called swarm operations. These consist of launching large amounts of network connected drones to execute coordinated missions or saturate the adversary defenses. According to the aforementioned medium, the state station CCTV has confirmed that its first test flight is scheduled to end of June. It will be the beginning of a series of trials prior to its eventual incorporation to the popular liberation army. Designed by the state giant Aviation Industry Corporation of China (Avic) and built by Xian Chida Aircraft Parts Manufacturing, a subsidiary of Guangzhou Haige Communications, the Jiu Tian also stands out for its versatility. The manufacturer ensures that the modular design of its load bay allows you to adapt to multiple scenarios: from transport in high security environments to civil tasks such as border defense, maritime surveillance, rescue operations or protection of natural resources. As CGNTG points outhas a maximum weight of 16 tons take -off and a wingspan of 25 meters, the Jiu Tian expands the catalog of advanced UAVS of China, which already appears models such as the stealthy CH-7 or the Wing Loong-Xof Antisubmarine use. Although it is still in the test phase, it could be placed as a potential against emblematic drones of the United States such as the Global Hawk RQ-4 (specialized in great altitude recognition) or the MQ-9 Reaper, more oriented to the attack and lighter take-off. China has accelerated the development of sophisticated drones in the last decade, consolidating them as key tools for regional conflicts or asymmetric war scenarios. The Jiu Tian, ​​if it meets the expectations deposited in it, could become one of the most advanced platforms within that unmanned aerial expansion strategy.

Holy Week has become a huge marketing campaign. Now you have even board games

by

The Easter week It is not only a meeting point for Catholics throughout Spain, which They share a faith and customs indicated in cities such as Seville, Malaga or Zamora. It is also a key moment for the country’s economy: promoted by institutions, backed by tourism and in constant evolution in search of new commercial forms, Holy Week also moves millions. And commerce, services and, now, internet, know it well. Economic engine It is absolutely indisputable that Holy Week is an economic engine for different cities in Spain, which receive income in sectors as diverse as tourism and hospitality (with Figures in Seville that are around 95% occupation and influx of two million people), trade, crafts and, of course, the expenses derived from processions, such as rental rents. In Seville there is talk of 415 million euros In income these dates, in Malaga 393 million And in León, 5 million. Complex relationship. There are, of course, tensions between those who defend recollection and religious feelings as keys to living Holy Week and those who see it as a unique possibility of economic impulse. But this conflict is not new: Already in 1972 A critic to the situation denounced that “there is a tourist map, a commercial gear that lacks any point of contact with faith”, so it can be said that we are facing a clash that comes from afar. But now it is taking new forms. New ways to explain Holy Week. The arrival of new forms, beyond the traditional ones, to commercially exploit the holidays is also the result of a change in the perception of Holy Week. Few have known how to read that change in tradition as the Channel 101TV from Seville, which of course is broadcasting live multiple processions, but that has found a particular dialectic with The ‘A Cielo’ program. It is a kind of chiringuito of jugones in the brotherhood where a group of experts in images, brotherhoods and traditions analyze with a light tone but very felt the Holy Week … throughout the year and with the viral apollo of the social networks. Boarding Board Games. Among these new ways of getting commercial performance of Holy Week highlights the new industry of board games. They are very simple games, often with an innocent point, but in other aspects they have some complexity and even adapt mechanics of non -religious games. Artes Cañete is the brand that is responsible for the simplest and most handmade, such as the Oca brotherhe Party Game Cofrade meetingthe card game inspired by the rhythms and codes of the steps There it was And my particular favorite, the Who is who cofradewith editions for seven Andalusian cities and where you have to identify a wide variety of images of steps. One step further. But of course, Holy Week gives for a lot of fun, and we have recently seen games of a certain complexity: The Holy Meeting It is a game of charges of collecting and stealing steps. Certain similarities have Processions and Cofrade Citywhere strategy and resource management are involved in a struggle to be the most noticeable brotherhood. And finally, there is the elegant GO CERC a skill game with die -cut steps and in which you have to go collecting promises with a throne miniature. Products for all. It is debatable if Holy Week and its relationship with industry and tourism has not been, for decades, a commercial product. But it is clear that the last times, new technologies and the Internet have taken a special turn. Only then have they been able to be born Escape Rooms Holy Week theme, Immersive experiences 360 or 3D printing businesses Brotherhood products. The market continues to evolve so that the passion does not vain.

The Board of Directors has officially rejected its offer

by

“OpenAi is not on saleand the Board has unanimously rejected the last attempt of Mr. Musk to alter its competition, ”said Bret Taylor, president of the non -profit organization of the AI ​​company, said Friday, In a message posted in X. In this way, the offer of 97.4 billion dollars launched on February 10 by the CEO of Tesla has been officially discarded by its recipient. This is an important setback for the businessman’s plans and a victory for Sam Altman. Musk gave the impression of being very sure Musk’s purchase attempt seemed to affect the plan set by Altman to transform the startup commercial arm In a public benefit corporation (PBC)liberating it in addition to entity control Nonprofit To get more investments. Musk’s lawyers even said this week that their client would withdraw the offer if the Openai Board promised to “preserve the mission of the beneficial organization and stipulate that the sign of ‘is sold’ for sale ‘of its assets stopping its conversion.” “Openai is not on sale, and the Board has unanimously rejected the last attempt of Mr. Musk to alter its competition. Any possible reorganization of OpenAI will reinforce our non -profit organization and its mission to ensure that Agi benefits all humanity. ” Let us remember that Elon Musk sue Openai and Sam Altman with the argument that the company was moving away from its founding mission to develop AI to “benefit of humanity“And that he had made a” de facto fusion “with Microsoft. Well, it has not been necessary for OpenAi to have to change its plans to avoid the attempt to acquire Musk, but it has been the organization that has directly rejected it, although it is yet to be seen what collateral effect can have this. Although Musk’s present offer has lost validity, there is the possibility that it has influenced the compensation value that Openai must pay to your entity without profit to separate from it. We have explained it in detail in another article. Images | OpenAI In Xataka | Openai wants to square a circle with GPT-5: earn money and become the “new Google” offering something free
