pop divas have changed songs for content

by

On October 3, the new and successful album by Taylor Swift, at least if we understand that “coming out” means the physical fact that the vinyl is available to buy in stores and that you can already listen to the songs on Spotify. Because the reality is that the North American singer-songwriter lives in a perpetual state of promotion born from the fusion a few years ago of his private life and his work as an artist. We are not with the hackneyed “the album began when the artist faced the blank page”, but with a conscious effort to maintain attention for longer than the 41 minutes and 40 seconds it lasts. The Life of a Showgirl. We can say that the album started with her presentation on her now fiancé’s podcast, she continued with that Instagram announcement of your wedding with 37 million likes and continued with his “documentary”, the second highest grossing film October in the United States. To tell the truth, Taylor Swift, while continuing to dedicate herself mainly to making songs, has mutated into a politician. More than anything because it is in a constant campaign for the attention of his fans. or even if we want to see it from a more well-intentioned and not so commercial prism, he carries out a kind of public service for his followers. It can’t produce 12 songs every month, but it is capable of leaving small recurring crumbs to keep voracious fans in need of content entertained. ‘I Bet You Think About Me’ If for a mere mortal it is impossible to please everyonemuch less if you are the North American singer-songwriter, accustomed to criticism directed more at the person than at the music itself. Nor should the chapter of Taylor Swift in ‘Family Guy’‘, where they booed her for being happy with her boyfriend and writing songs about that instead of her disappointments in love; but there is some evident point and separation between the stage Eras Tour which closed about a year ago and The Life of a Showgirl. It’s not just Taylor Swift that the conversation around her new job is going to last weeks or even months. The album came out earlier this month, but how long have your fans been talking about it? His discography is his biography and each Was It is an approach to a chapter in the life of the singer from Pennsylvania. Her followers keep Swift relevant, whether because of re-recording of his previous albumsthe recovery of his masterstheir love relationships, your friends… Not only is his discography his biography, but both have a symbiotic relationship. Few details of her life are unknown to her fans, and with each new release, Swift creates new satellite experiences. She is fully aware of the attention she receives and of the entourage that will be willing to participate in everything she proposes; how to discover countless Easter Eggs to events unthinkable for other types of creators: yaa in 2014, anticipating the release of his album 1989Swift held a series of «1989 Secret Sessions» at his different residences around the world where carefully selected fans were told that they were going to attend some kind of secret event, without knowing what awaited them. Another example is the event that accompanied the re-recording of Grid and the launch of ‘All Too Well’ (10 minute version) (Taylor’s Version). On this occasion, Swift decides to present and give her fans a romantic and heartbreaking short film video clip. So, seeing how the author usually operates and seeing that the end of the pharaonic last tour was approaching, her audience was already rambling about what her new project would be. And, as always, Swift left them a clue: in her last show she went, after finishing her last song, to an orange door, beginning the color and the entrance of the new Was. (Taylor’s Version) With the singer-songwriter we have the impression that we are in a perpetual happening of You were and vinyls. The Life of a Showgirl It came out on October 3 but we were already in the loop of their new work and experiencing their new album since that ‘Karma’ at the end of the Eras Tour. It’s all part of a person’s life showgirl: their love relationship, their NFL appearances to see his fiancé, the revelation of his new job on his own sports podcast Travis Kelce and his brother Jasonthe promotion of the different vinyl versions that we can buy even without listening to a single, the announcement of his marriage and the conversation around his engagement ring. Perhaps it all started organically thanks to its global relevance, but there is little doubt that this continuous state of promotion is a marketing weapon that it uses to its advantage. It is curious that the fact of making all the songs on the album known to the public seems like another important step, but not even the main one. We not only talk about everything lore that is created just before the release, or the enormous and lucrative anticipation of fans that ends when they finally get to hear the songs. In the case of Swift it goes much further and is renewed with each new release: On this occasion the success of The Life of a Showgirl came accompanied by an event very box office in the form of a party/launch like ‘The Official Release Party of a Showgirl’. While waiting for the doors to the room to open, a girl of about seven years old arrived accompanied by her mother. Full of glitter and wearing a dress appropriate for the occasion, the man from the cinema asked her if she was coming to a birthday; “No, I’m coming to Taylor’s,” he snapped before looking for someone to exchange his words with. friendship bracelets. And like her, groups of friends or couples add up to a number of viewers well above the average for a Friday afternoon screening. This community … Read more

ZonaGemelos generates the darkest content on the Spanish internet. They had to cancel their own ‘Big Brother’ in nine hours

by

Extreme content has always existed on the Internet, but until recently it was part of the exclusive redoubt of the network’s sewer: deep webforums in which you had to register to enter, P2P circuits closed to the general public. Social networks, however, are increasingly expanding their themes in more aggressive directions. The lack of moderation and the avalanche of content has created monsters like ‘The House of Twins’, a reality show inspired by ‘Big Brother‘ which was canceled nine hours after its premiere. But who are you? Daniel and Carlos Ramos are brothers and content creators under the label ZoneTwins. They have become known for debate videos that revolve around controversy, morbidity, arguments and sometimes live violence between the guests of their program. Their accounts have hundreds of thousands of followers (just over 300,000 on YouTube, almost 400,000 on TikTok) and their style is reminiscent of entertainment programs from the beginning of the century like ‘Crónicas Marcianas’, and also dating shows like ‘First Dates’ or challenge shows, but in a more extreme way. Among its regulars are Paco Porras or Simon Perezand also include betting and gambling content (in casinos like LocoWin, with high-risk bets). What is ‘The House of Twins’? A reality show for networks which premiered on October 12 on Kick (the twins are banned from Twitch) and YouTube and was canceled in the early hours of the next day, due to violent incidents and serious confrontations between the seven participants, especially between two women who are regulars in the ZonaGemelos debates: la Falete and Triana Marrash. The latter had its fifteen minutes of fame on a national scale thanks to ‘Tardear’ and an alleged disappearance that turned out to be a setup to gain followers. What happened? Three contest participants voluntarily left the program before its cancellation, given the direction the program was taking, with the participants becoming increasingly drunk. Among other things, constant fights could be seen, attempts to quilting with three people involved, inappropriate comments on sensitive topics such as the war in Ukraine and destruction of the house and furniture. The organizers, when announcing the closure, spoke of “a second edition with some basic rules of coexistence and a few hours to sleep.” Some figures. In its first hours, the program was followed by more than a million live viewers, which makes it clear that we are not exactly facing a niche product. The hashtag #LaCasaDeLosGemelos became a trending topic on X and YouTube ended up cutting the broadcast due to the questionable content. Of course, as happens in reality shows, it soon began to generate lots of derivative content from other creators commenting on what happened in the house. extreme youtube. The type programs reality streaming like The House of Twins raise moral and ethical questions that have been object of study: emotional manipulation, exploitation of participants, loss of privacy, psychological and social effects on those who participate and consume this type of entertainment… Producers usually edit and manipulate recorded material to provoke conflicts and extreme reactions that keep the public’s attention. This strategy generates economic benefits, but results in the emotional exploitation of the contestants, who may suffer anxiety and psychological deterioration. Other key moral dilemma revolves around the actual consent of the participants. In many productions, contestants sign contracts that allow them to be constantly filmed, without effective control over their image once broadcast: participants are recorded in moments of emotional and physical vulnerability, such as arguments or personal crises. And if these issues are considerable in realities traditional, its impact is multiplied on the internet, where algorithms amplify emotionally conflictive content to maximize public interaction.

Sora’s AI is resurrecting dead celebrities to turn them into cheap viral content: it’s technological nonsense

by

What of digitally resurrect deceased public figures It’s not new, but Sora 2 by OpenAI is crossing the line from homage to pure morbid entertainment, with videos ranging from harmless humor to the most explicit cruelty. This phenomenon, which has provoked the indignation of relatives of the daughter of actor Robin Williams, raises serious ethical and legal questions. What is happening. Michael Jackson shows up at a KFC and steals a man’s fried chicken while dancing away. Pope John Paul II does some skate tricks. Albert Einstein gives an interview after a UFC fight. These are just a few examples of what people are doing with Sora 2. There’s more: Martin Luther King, Kennedy, Nixon…many videos have a humorous and seemingly harmless tone. Others, however, are in very bad taste, such as those that show a Stephen Hawking being abused brutally. And the worst thing is that no one seems to be stopping it. The Robin Williams case. Zelda Williams, daughter of the late actor, has used her Instagram account to show her rejection of this trend. “Please stop sending me AI-generated videos of dad. Stop believing that I want to see them or that I will understand them. I don’t want them and I won’t understand them,” he said in his message. Although he does not give details about whether the videos he has received are made with Sora 2, his complaint comes just a few days after its release. The cameos. They are the great novelty of Sora 2 and one of the reasons for its popularity. In fact, the app was launched with a cameo by Sam Altman that has already generated all kinds of memes. With cameos you can create funny videos of yourself or a friend, but Sora won’t let you make videos of real people unless they have given their consent. Except if those people are dead. Blurred boundaries. In it Sora security document 2OpenAI states that “only you can decide who can use your cameo, and you can revoke access at any time. We also take steps to block depictions of public figures.” However, they don’t say anything about public figures who have died, and from what we’re seeing, it doesn’t seem like these guidelines apply in the same way. According to the TechCrunch teststhe app does not allow you to create videos of Jimmy Carter or Michael Jackson (although there are published videos), but it does not cause problems when doing so with Robin Williams or Richard Nixon. defaming the dead. Although it is ethically questionable, at a legal level things change. In the United States, where OpenAI operates, legally it is not possible to open a process for defaming a deceased personso the company would not have any responsibility. In Spain it is similar; the Organic Law 1/1982 includes the right to honor, personal and family privacy and one’s own image. However, according to the article 32 of the civil codecivil personality is extinguished after death. Yes, it could be the case that heirs claim the right to honor of the deceasedbut it is a complex process and full of nuances. The new AI dump. At the beginning of the year we talked about how Junk AI or ‘AI Slop’ had flooded the networks. Were most disturbing videosof very bad tastebut they were clearly made with AI. With Sora 2 a dangerous door opens and it is that of a new AI dump more realistic than ever. If we add to this the use of the image of deceased people as if they were toys with which we can do whatever we want, no matter how legal it may be, it sets a very worrying precedent.

La 1 only had to win the morning battle. It has achieved it as with everything else: by politicizing its content

by

Follow the rising rhythm of RTVE. The only part of the day that remained to be conquered, with two giants of morning news at the helm such as Ana Rosa Quintana on Telecinco and Susanna Griso on Antena 3, it was in the mornings. And after a series of changes in search of an identity, finally ‘Mañaneros 360’ has found success, with a share which doubles what it had a few months ago. And along the way, he has angered the government’s political rivals. The figures. The historical audience record was achieved by ‘Mañaneros’ on Monday October 6 with a 16.9% share (also preceded by another success on the network’s mornings, Silvia Intxaurrondo and the debate on ‘La Hora de la 1’, which this season is exceeding 20% ​​on several days). Both programs are experiencing the best moment of their respective histories (‘La Hora’… is five years old, and ‘Mañaneros’ is two years old), but it is not an isolated phenomenon on public television. In general, the mornings increase in audience: ‘The Ana Rosa Program’, for example, also the season is starting very well with figures that are helping to boost Telecinco’s totals. Hesitant starts. Until reaching this point, ‘Mañaneros 360’ has undergone some changes. It started in September 2023 simply called ‘Mañaneros’ (another one was previously proposed, ‘Bienvenidos’), and with Jaime Cantizano at the helm, after more veteran options such as Jordi González, Isabel Gemio and Gemma Nierga were discarded. Cantizano accepted an assignment very inspired by the morning magazines on North American television, which sought to distance himself from the competition of Quintana and Nierga. The result was a hodgepodge of sections that mixed health, events and heart, without a fixed order to surprise the viewer every day. The casual tone was cultivated, significantly, with a heart section that already mattered to collaborators of ‘Sálvame’ such as Terelu Campos, Lydia Lozano, Chelo García Cortés and Alba Carrillo. The result was discreet, with an average of 8.2%, but improving, as reported by ‘El País’ in a chronicle of the history of the programthe figures of its predecessor, ‘Speaking clearly’, which had been closer to 7%. New changes. Cantizano ended up quitting his job because he couldn’t stand the stress: Monday to Friday on television, and Saturdays and Sundays on Onda Cero. He was replaced by Adela González, who had experience in live programs like ‘Sálvame’, and with her came an even more relaxed tone thanks to the experience of the presenter, and which increased the audience. The following change did not come from within, but from outside the program: Sergio Calderonwhich would take to port very notable changes in the RTVE grideliminated the social chronicle part (which led to a series of not very well received dismissals, as the aforementioned article comments) and introduced a political chronicle part, commanded by Javier Ruiz. Enter Javier Ruiz. Ruiz, who in addition to presenting and directs the program, has given the program a definitive boost in audiences, focusing almost its entire duration on current politics and turning it to the left. Whether the openly progressive positioning of the program is debatable or not (the eternal discussion of the politicization of public television), it is clear that this is what is providing audiences. And many of the most apolitical sections ended up migrating towards the evening ‘Sálvame’ project, ‘The TV family‘, which ended up shipwrecked. Chainsaw or flamethrower. This is how VOX said that it would enter RTVE when it had the support of the voters, in the mouth of his deputy Manuel Mariscal. He made reference to the leftist speech of Marc Giró, Jesús Cintora, and also Javier Ruiz. Without a doubt, (literally) incendiary words for a change in programming that is bothering conservative sectors (there was also the root of the Mariló Montero’s loud anger on David Broncano’s program). But, somehow, it is getting more audiences than ever. In Xataka | Thirty years later, there is still an unbeatable television format in Spain: desktop soap operas

The future of the Internet is flooding of ia. And there are those who have already seen a business niche: content made by humans

by

Internet has been filled with Searches results generated by artificial intelligence and of ‘Slop‘. The first is already reducing clicks to halfand points to collapse for the media. The second is something that users will have to live if the platforms do not get more serious to improve the filtering. Among all the tangle of new and ancient actors, an old Google opponent has returned to position itself as an alternative to the current in this era. Forks Duckdukgo. What are they doing. Duckckgo is an alternative search engine focused on offering the greatest possible privacy to its users, and for this, use, for example, the Bing searches. After 16 years since its foundation, the company has launched a Filter of images generated with AI that frames in its philosophy of the “private, useful and optional” functions. For the end user, this means being able to see or hide the images generated by the general search of images, something that is already problematic in Google where, for example, we come to see distorted results, even in examples as recognizable as ‘The young woman of the pearl’. The company has already shown that it can be differentiated, with Duck.aian own chatbot that anonymizes conversations and does not use them for training. How do they. To use this filter, the company is not using an engine driven by artificial intelligence or something similar. Those responsible have detailed the method, and is based on using manual open source block lists that the popular content blocker provides Ublock Origin and the Ublacklist’s Hage AI Blocklist, a browser extension created so that users can manually filter concrete websites of their Google results. Effectiveness. One of the big problems of the contents generated with AI is that they not only come from repositories that clearly indicate it, such as Midjourney explore, for example. In this sense, from DuckDuckgo They recognize That the filter “will not capture 100% of the results generated by AI”, but “will considerably reduce the amount of images generated that are shown.” Examples of images generated by AI that do not come out when activating the filter. Some of them is not as obvious as the largest in the first row. In our case, for example, we have sought “dog jumping” without activating the filter so as not to see. And he has found the image of a dog jumping with a suspicious origin: Freepik. It was an image generated by AI that has stopped appearing when activating the filter. Next to him was more of the same source that he has also leaked. The challenge. The filtering works well, but the challenge for companies such as Duckduckgo is capital, because Freepik already serves as “generated with AI”. But what happens when a random image that we find in media like this has no label to indicate it? There they have to play methods that use verification system with detailed analysis of the image, which makes the resources required to do so effectively fire. Beyond images, the difficulty is in the filtering of websites with texts generated by artificial intelligence. Openai, for example, launched A tool to detect plagiarismand then He withdrew it silently. Although according to leaks now they have a tool that operates, They do not throw it. The problem. Detectors do not just work well, and after reaching accuse students of using and erruniversity professors are suffering the phenomenon: To make undetectable texts, students are resorting to rewriting tools that worsen their quality. Google, a strong defender of the generative AI, has opened Its Synthid water brand technology. The inconvenience? We continue needing a universal standard that at the moment does not arrive. And even if it arrives, users will not always want to mark their creation as done with ia. For example, the images generated with Google image indicate its nature with the “AI” icon, but erase or cut it is very simple. The snowball does not stop, The hole. According to the Empty Internet Theory either ‘Dead Internet Theory‘, Much of the content that exists in the network is created by automated bots and algorithms, and with generative intelligence, the thing is going more. In addition, Google’s preview has only been the first step: now it touches Ai mode, which no longer delivers a results, talk. So, although we win comfort, there will be a huge hole for companies such as Duckckgo, looking for that the basic unit of communication on the Internet is still aliveor that knowledge remain something democratized without Loot all Internet content. As an idea, DuckDuckgo can deepen including filters throughout web navigation: it can be distinguished from browsers with AI with a different approach to Your browser.

The AI does not stop stealing internet content to improve. And the Internet has swollen the noses

by

That Reddit blocks the action to the Archive Internet is a tragedy. And also a way of stopping a voracious and implacable The price to be paid for having ia It is the looting of all the internet content. In Reddit they know it well, and they have just taken an extreme measure against those indiscriminate robberies: it is not that Block access to their contents to the ‘scrapers’ of the companies of AI directly. Now they also block them if these companies try to access with rodeos. The injured party? Internet Archive. What happened. Reddit, who has always been very proactive when protecting “their” contents (which, by the way, have been generated by users voluntarily and free), has realized something: they were stealing them. But not directly, but through previous versions stored in that gigantic digital hemeroteca library called Internet Archive. Wayback Machine without access. Wayback Machine is the “Machine in Time” of the Internet Archive, and allows access to old versions of any website. But to avoid more content theft, Reddit has banned this platform to index the vast majority of Reddit content. Only the Reddit.com home page can be indexed. Reddit’s argument. Tim Rathschmidt, spokesman for Reddit, explained In The Verge That although Internet Archive is a service aimed at the open web, they had discovered “cases in which artificial intelligence companies violate the platform policies, including ours, and extract data from Wayback Machine.” In addition, he pointed out the following: “Until they are able to defend their site and comply with the policies of the platform (for example, respect the privacy of users, in relation to the elimination of deleted content), we are limiting part of their access to Reddit data to protect Reddit users.” If you want our contents, pay. That message from the spokesman is reasonable, but as little is incomplete. Especially since Reddit has persecuted that kind of looting of AI companies. He has tried to block those who did it with technical means, and the goal both before and now was the same: that companies pay for their contents. It is something that has achieved with the agreements that have reached since this type of processes began. The first thing he did was close his APIa disaster for all the Internet. Then he ended up reaching a Google agreement, which pays 60 million dollars a year In order to have access to those contents. And the same ended up with OpenAiwith which he sealed a pact whose economic details have not been unveiled but that gives access to Reddit’s contents to the models that enhance chatgpt. My content is mine (more or less). Social platforms have been nourishing the content of users for years. Until now the business model focused on advertising, but the arrival of AI has allowed us to have an interesting alternative model: that the companies of AI pay for being able to access those contents. Users barely win, Reddit and social networks do. Contents affirming that they are his – as Reddit, which in June He sued Anthropic– But that actually created the users of these platforms, who without realizing have become slaves of these social networks: they do not stop producing content that others consume, and do so without charging a euro. These platforms are intermediaries that provide the necessary infrastructure for this content to be available for free, but there are hardly any consideration for creators. Only a few can make a living on YouTube, Tiktok or Instagram for example. In Reddit exist Some metallic remuneration for the “taxpayers” who create the most for the platform. Cloudflare and content locks. Content companies are beginning to act in a similar way, and in the last two years we have seen how some editorial groups –Including haste– They reach agreements with AI companies so that they can use their contents. You Shall Not Pass! However, there are companies that go further. We have as clear example to Cloudflare, which has created a system so that companies that use their services can block the “Crawlers of AI” that try to steal their contents. If you are a cloudflare customer, you can activate that block, thus avoiding the problem or at least putting it Much more difficult to the AI companies that try to train their models with your data. Media and platforms such as The Associated Press, Fortune, Time or Stack Overflow are some of the companies that are already using said system. Quid Pro quo. This cat and mouse game is especially striking for the entire content creation segment, because IA companies use All shortcuts that can to capture (and steal) That data, Have or not copyright. What Reddit raises is a model in which creators compensate for the AI to take that data. Or more than creators, platforms that serve as their meeting and showcase. Media groups and audiovisual content producers have an interesting opportunity here Before the potential traffic collapse caused by solutions like Google AI Overviews.

AI as chatgpt is possible thanks to the indiscriminate use of online content. Cloudflare just said that it is over

by

The great IAS we use daily like GPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Company exist and are able to do what they do thanks, in large part, in large part, to the content available on the Internet. Companies such as Openai, Google and Anthropic, to mention some, have tracked (and track in real time) the web in search of content that answers the user’s questions. And they do it, unless there are specific agreementswithout offering consideration to the creators of said content beyond a link. It is a practice that is in question from the birth of this technology. Blog articles, Wikipedia, books, User generated content, even personal data. The trackers, those automated bots, do not leave anything behind and today Cloudflare has said that it is over From today, Cloudflare will block by default Scrapers of AI, something that has more implications of what it might seem. Let’s start at the beginning. Web Crawlers. This technology is not new and, in fact, it is thanks to it that the foundations on which the Internet is based (the web search) exists. Surely it is familiar about “The Google Spider“, that bot that tracks the entire website in search of content to index and offer the user. It is only one of the thousands and thousands that exist and that generate 30% of all traffic worldwide. This technology was capital to shape the Internet we know and the relationship with content generators was symbiotic. The economy of the click was born: the creator generates a content, Google Lo Indexa, the user finds it through Google, Google generates income with the advertising of the search engine, the creator receives free traffic and generates income thanks to advertising, affiliates, etc. With AI, the movie is quite different. Data. The AI ​​models need information to feed, be trained and be able to answer questions. To do this, the big companies that we all know tracked the website, They extracted all the content they could and used it to develop technologies such as Chatgpt. What is the problem? That content could be protected by copyright, which led to the fact that The New York Times sue Openai For this same reason since the companies of AI had to sign agreements with the means to access their content. Image: Solen Feyissa Ias connected. AI was evolving and, as expected, It ended up connecting to the Internet. Not only did he give answers based on finite training data, but could be connected to the network to search for the response in the media, blogs and online pages in real time (or almost in real time). The user no longer had to click on a link. The AI ​​searched, analyzed and generated the answer, making traffic towards the media and blogs. The user no longer accesses the original content, does not click on the links. Instead, it consumes a derived product generated by AI To this technology the Ai Crawlers or what is the same is given life: the trackers ia. They are the digievolution of the bots that shape the Internet we know. Among them are OPENAI GPTBOT, META-EXTERNALAGENT META, CLAUDEBOT OF ANTHROPIC O BYTESPIDER DE BYTEDANCE. With them the symbiotic relationship that we mentioned above begins to deteriorate because the user no longer accesses the original content, does not click. Instead, it consumes a derived product generated by Ia. The biggest example: new previous views generated with AI that appear on Google every time you do any search. Volume of daily requests of the main AI Bots | Image: Cloudflare Put the brake … or not, I’m just a .txt. How to solve this indiscriminate tracking and without consideration? The first proposal was Update the Robots.txt file to indicate to the bots that cannot extract the content of a website. This file and one of the most used resources to administer the activity of the bots, but has a small problem: its compliance is voluntary. IA companies can follow the instructions, or can ignore and extract the content. In addition, it may happen that we touch what we should not and that our website disappears from Google. Every website who wants to be on Google must allow Googlebot, its spider, to indicate to the bots that cannot extract the content of a website. This file is one of the most used resources to administer the activity of the bots, but it has a small problem: its compliance is voluntary. IA companies can follow the instructions, or can ignore and extract the content. Cloudflare is planted. We arrive at the recent announcement made by Cloudflare. The platform (The middle internet depends on) has announced that, from today, the blockade of the AI ​​Crawler will be active by default. To do this, Cloudflare offers direct management of robots.txt to avoid problems such as the aforementioned. The key, of course, is that Cloudflare will be in charge of maintaining the updated blockages according to the IA panorama. This, although it is activated by default, is voluntary and can be completely deactivated in the adjustments. To pay. Cloudflare’s other proposal is Pay per crawl. Since AI will continue to need access to the content of a website, why not give the creator the option to charge for such access? Pay Per Crawl, which is currently in Beta, allows domain owners to define a fixed price at request. If an AI Crawler wants to extract the content of that domain, you will have to pay for it. On paper, this tool has the potential to change the current panorama, but everything will depend on the scope, its adoption and what measures take the tracker operators.

How to use Gemini to summarize YouTube videos or ask questions about its Android content

by

Let’s explain How to summarize YouTube videos or ask questions about them using Gemini on Android. Both artificial intelligence and the video platform belong to Google, so they get along very well between them, and it is easy to interact. With this simple method, when you are watching a video on your mobile and do not have time to see it whole, you can ask Gemini a summary or ask specific questions. For example, if it is a recipe you can ask you to remind you of the amount of salt you should throw, and if it is a video of tricks you can ask you for a concrete one or ask any other type of question. To be able to use this trick, Gemini must be your main assistant on your mobile. If it has not been assigned as a default assistant, you can follow the steps of our article on How to change the Google Assistant for Gemini On your Android mobile. Ask Gemini about a YouTube video The first thing you have to do is open YouTube and be reproducing the video on which you want to ask the question. So, invokes Google Gemini. The AI ​​will recognize that you are watching a YouTube video, and above the writing field will show you two shortcuts. Here, you have to click on the option Ask questions about this video that will appear in the emerging window. When you choose that option, Gemini will add the URL of the YouTube video, and will allow you to write or talk to ask the question you want.

A type of content is devouring all streaming platforms in silence: the anime

by

The Anime It became a large more ingredient of our cultural offer. No one is surprising that an anime feature film reaches the billboards, which is the second or third part of a saga that only the otakus knows but becomes The most watched premiere of the weekend. The anime has one of the most delivered and consistent fandoms in the world. It has nothing strange than the platforms of streamingalways attentive to any new success to which the tooth will have, have increased spectacularly in recent years their anime catalog fund. New mainstream. Since the first anime that triumphed in the West (‘Akira’, ‘Champions’, ‘Dragon Ball’, ‘Ranma’ …) decades have passed. The figures that manage the new successes (‘One Piece’, ‘Attack on the Titans’) show those of those productions, which already marked millions of young people in their day: now, generation Z is that of the anime, and its aesthetics and narrative have become the new new mainstream. That is, we are willing to review a few figures that define a cultural panorama dominated in large part by the anime. Crazy growth. The Parrot Analytics Market Studies firm Recently estimated that the average demand of the United States of anime in streaming It grew 176% between 2019 and 2024, and this is undoubtedly due to a greater amount of offer (in that period the number of anime programs tripled). But also to the increase of occasional spectators, which are those who are giving a renewed impulse to Japanese animation outside the fans circles. For the anime industry, all this means income from 27,000 million euros a year. A for the anime. A quick look at platform catalogs allows you to distinguish to what extent the anime is important in its programming. The first one is betting strongly on classics such as ‘Dragon Ball’ (licensed exclusively outside Asia the new franchise series, ‘Daima’) or ‘One Piece’, whose adaptation Live Action It has been one of the great successes of the platform in recent months. In the United States, in addition, Hulu (owned by Disney) plants face with abundant licenses, but out of there, in countries such as Spain, Netflix and Prime Video are distributed (they often share) the great successes: ‘Death Note’, ‘Guardians of the night’, ‘Naruto’ and many others. Specific services. And to this are added the dedicated platforms, a privilege of which only audiovisual subgenres with a more delivered fandom, such as terror or anime. In the case of anime we have above all to Crunchyrollwhich was born as a fan project in 2006 that spread anime without permission, but whose rapid acceptance led him to start closing deals with distributors to issue anime legally. Owned by Sony since 2021, he absorbed an important competitor, funimation, and has More than 120 million registered users. Other important streaming services exclusively of anime are Restrocush or Hidive, to which the abundant Fast thematic channels are added that emit 24 hours of series such as’ Pokémon ‘,’Conan detective‘ either ‘Inazuma Eleven‘. Everything is anime. Another important sign of how the anime has become undisputed creative force in current streaming is that many series that at another time would undoubtedly have had a western aesthetic approach now start from approaches completely anime: ‘Suicide Squad isekai‘It is produced in Japan and its own title betrays its origin, but is based on DC heroes; The greatest animation success of recent times, ‘Arcane’It is French production, but its anime visual roots are absolutely indisputable; And even a very characteristic series of the United States, ‘Rick and Morty’, has Your own spin-off anime. According to Jason Demarcocreator of the mythical Toonami thematic channel, this type of phenomena are a sign of “maturity” of this animation style. And all this rent extraordinarily in both addresses: 38% of international anime income is produced in Netflix. The benefit navigates In both directions. The new normality. The overwhelming growth and implementation figures in particular and Asian culture in general are no longer surprising (remember that a Korean series, ‘The Squid’s game’, remains the greatest success in Netflix’s history). That ‘Dundundun’ ravages or that one of the most profitable ideas that the platform has had in recent times has been to bring the anime in real image ‘One Piece‘They are some pieces of the many that make up a complex puzzle. One whose final snapshot shows a future in which the anime has an indisputable weight in the global computing of pop culture.
