Catalonia wanted to create the mother of networks for its public headquarters with Huawei equipment. He thought better of it

by

The Catalan Court of Public Sector Contracts has partially upheld the appeal presented by Telefónica and Cellnex against the award of the XCAT network contract to sirt and Huawei. The project to interconnect the strategic infrastructures of the Catalan territory will not be able to rely on hardware from China. Why? Catalonia has a fiber optic backbone network, a backbone that supports the Catalan administration. Hospitals, educational centers, public data centers… An infrastructure that has been around for years seeking independence with Spain and that, through the XCAT project, it was preparing its biggest technological leap in decades thanks to the local company Sirt Connecta and Huawei’s network technologies. The offer. Providing it with a budget of 127 million, the Generalitat was finalizing a plan to connect more than 5,400 institutional headquarters. All with its own infrastructure so as not to depend on national giants such as Telefónica, Vodafone or MásOrange. Sirt’s offer with Huawei was the best valued by the CTTIthe computer lung that supports digital services in Catalonia, but Telefónica and Cellnex filed an appeal before the Catalan Court. not so fast. Despite offering a cheaper proposal, Telefónica-Cellnex saw the balance tip towards the Sirt-Huawei proposal. They thus presented an appeal in which they challenged the award of the contract, criticized the technical assessment and indicated their doubts about the technical solvency and real capacity of Sirt to execute said contract. The Catalan Court of Public Sector Contracts has partially upheld the appeal presented by Telefónica and Cellnex, thus suspending the award. There is more. The European Commission’s proposal for a new cybersecurity law, presented on January 20, makes the awarding of the contract even more difficult. Europe wants to expressly prohibit (although the law will not come into force for at least a year) the use of Chinese technology in fixed network infrastructure. In other words, Catalonia cannot use Huawei equipment. If the court’s decision is appealed and the Sirt-Huawei solution is implemented, in just a year and a half all Huawei equipment should be replaced with others of Western origin. The silent dismantling. In recent years, the three large Spanish operators have expelled Huawei from their network cores. Telefónica now works with Nokia and Ericsson Orange with Ericsson Vodafone with Nokia The next step is what the Sirt-Telefónica conflict leaves us with: small local operators will also have to banish Chinese equipment from their hardware core to comply with upcoming European regulations.

How to create an excel with artificial intelligence where you can add the expenses of your digital purchase receipts

by

Let’s explain to you how to create a spreadsheet with your expenses using artificial intelligence. Specifically, what we are going to do is put all your purchase receipts in a folder, and have the AI ​​read them, extract the totals, write them down in the spreadsheet and then add the total. It seems complex, but it is easier than it seems. For our example we are going to use the PDF tickets that are sent to you by email when you configure the Mercadona digital ticketalthough you can also use photographs of tickets. For the spreadsheet we are going to use LibreOffice, as it is a free and open source alternative to Office. To carry out the actions we will use Claude Coworkthe AI ​​assistant of Claude that can do actions on your computer. The negative part is that To use this tool you must have a paid account in this artificial intelligence chat, but the positive part is how much you can later do with it. There are workflow tools that allow you to automate this and do it online, but we are going to start by explaining this simpler method because it is all local, within your computer, and sharing less data with third parties. Make preparations first It is important to be organized when carrying out this task. Therefore, what we are going to do is go to the file explorer on our computer and create a folder. In my case I have called it Tickets. Inside, we will create a subfolder where you can put the digital tickets which we will call “Ticket PDFs”, and then the spreadsheet file which we will call “Total Purchases”. We will also create the basic structure of the spreadsheetso that it will then be easier for us to describe to the AI ​​what we want. On this sheet I have included the date, the total of the ticket, and then a column to add the link to the PDF file for each one. Here, you will be able to customize this as you need. Now simply Put the tickets in PDF inside the folder that we have created to store the tickets. You can do this by hand with the ones you have, and then update it with the ones that arrive later, because we will also tell you how to ask the AI ​​to update everything. This technique has many variants. For example, adding a specific column in the spreadsheet you can also add the name of the supermarket in order to manage the expenses of several of them, or make a different sheet for each one within the same file. You can make things as complex as you want. Now ask AI to do the work for you Now it’s time to get to work. Let’s open the Claude application on the computer and choose the option cowork. Here, the first thing will be click on the option Work in a folder. When you do this, you will have to choose the folder where you have included the subfolder with the PDFs and where you have created the spreadsheet file. This way the AI ​​will work only within this space without touching the rest of the files on the computer. Once you have done this, tap write a prompt asking it what you want it to dowhich in this case is asking it to read the PDFs with the tickets, extract the information and put it in the place you want within your spreadsheet. I have used this prompt, where I also specify the columns where each content goes: I want you to analyze the content of all the PDFs in the “Ticket PDFs” folder. These are purchase tickets. In all of them, I want you to extract both the date of the ticket and the total you have spent and put them in the “Date” and “Total (€)” columns of the “Total purchases.ods” file. Within this file, I also want you to create a link in the PDF Link column that, when clicked, opens the PDF file it belongs to. This prompt You can modify it depending on what your spreadsheet is like.but always specifying in which column each item goes, or on which page of the spreadsheet if you have created one for each supermarket. You can even make a sheet for the totals, and ultimately ask them to use any of Excel functions or the program you are going to use. Now, you have to wait a few minutes for Claude to process your request and complete the task. When you do, you will be able to enter the file you created before, and you will see that it has updated it. You can make changes to the file for font size or whatever you want, and Claude will then take that into account. You can also tell the AI ​​if it has done something wrong, such as not including links, so it can correct and add it. Now, you can ask him to do extra work like adding a column below with the total. And then, When you add more files you can ask it to update the file reviewing the new PDFs that you have added and adding the missing ones to the list. And that’s it. With all this you will have a spreadsheet that you can update every time you add more tickets. You can also ask him to do it by reading the content of photos, and other tickets that you also have in PDF.

AI has already bothered us to improve the PC. Now it is going to make it difficult for us to set up a NAS to create a homemade cloud

by

It is the best time so that your PC does NOT break. Or the console. Wave Steam Deck. We have been talking for weeks about how the explosion of data centers for AI has made burst the consumer market of RAM. The SSDs were nextand it was logical to a certain extent because they share technology. What perhaps was not expected was that the new components to increase in price were conventional hard drives, HDDs. And in the midst of cloud fatigue, AI is going to claim a new victim: the NAS. Western Digital, the symptom. It was during the presentation of results for the second fiscal quarter of 2026 when Irving Tan, CEO of Western Digital, commented that the company had sold practically its entire catalog by 2026. We have already seen this with RAM memory, and it indicates that there are already confirmed orders for 2027 and 2028 (supporting the assertion of other authoritative voices in the industry that this crisis still has some time left). Components that do not exist for something that does not exist. The HDDs that WD is talking about are not those with 2, 6 or 8 TB for the consumer market, but rather those with 20 or 30 TB capacity. Onwards. For now, if you want another 4 TB to store games on your PC, you will have no problem finding a drive at an appropriate price/GB ratio. Now, when we talk about having “everything sold” it is not that there is not a single album left on the shelves, but that what they have not produced yet is already sold. This is something that is happening with other segments, such as with RAM itself (with hoarders) and with SSDs. To give a quick example: if Western Digital is capable of producing two million 30 TB HDDs per year and only the xAI data centers They buy two million 30 TB HDDs for a data center that they have not yet built, WD no longer has production capacity and the waits begin for the others. One of the bosses of SMICthe great Chinese foundry, dropped recently the issue that components that have not yet been produced are being sold to power data centers that have not been built to give life to a technology that no one knows exactly what it will be like in the future. Or if it’s even a bubble. The innards of an HDD. And that HDDs are running out is logical for two reasons. The first is because, just like the SSD and memory industry is dominated by three companies (Samsung, Micron and SK Hynix), HDDs are commanded by three others (Toshiba, Western Digital and Seagate). All three have begun a conversion to new technologies to create denser disks, which implies moving money from the “old” factories to the new processes. But it also means that if they have a certain production capacity, scaling up to create more isn’t as easy as clicking a button. Not so immediate either. The second reason is that there are HDDs that have a NAND drive inside as cache memory. That is to say: if there is a shortage of flash memory, there is a shortage for everything, and the companies that manufacture HDDs also experience the delays and price increases in the industry. Second youth. What is undeniable is that HDD manufacturers are doing well in this situation in terms of income. We told it a few months agowhen at the end of January it was already seen that the shares of Seagate and Western Digital were beginning to skyrocket by 148.38% and 156.09% respectively. The thing is that they have not stopped increasing since then because, although memory and SSDs are crucial in data centers, HDDs also have a lot to say. The price per GB makes the cost per capacity extremely attractive, and the AI ​​generates a lot of information that must be saved and for which a very high transfer speed is not needed. Also for the information you consume during training. That has to be stored somewhere, and HDDs are the best option. NAS. And you will tell me: and that doesn’t matter to me, as a user. And it’s a great question because yes: that 20 or 30 TB HDDs become more expensive may not matter to you if until now you thought of this component as the storage of a PC, but…and if you want to set up a NAS? A trend in recent months is to escape subscriptions. There are too many and increasingly expensive, and for everything, and a NAS is a great alternative. Basically, it is a PC with a huge storage capacity with which you can build a private cloud. Do your photos Google Photos? To the NAS. Your private Netflix digitizing your DVDs and Blu-Ray? To the NAS. ¿Your private Spotify ripping your CDs and vinyls? To the NAS. And all this accessible at any time, without paying subscriptions and without problems with data leaks. But of course, to have a private cloud it is necessary to have teras and teras of storage, and that is where those more “professional” hard drives can become impossible not only because of price, but because, at some point, they will no longer exist. Don’t let what we already have be broken. And the worst thing is that there is only one solution: go through the price hoop, unless you entrust yourself to what you believe in so that your PC, laptop or Steam Deck does not break (whichEU is also having supply problems due to the RAM memory crisis). As I said before, it is going great for companies because they are selling everything, but for users, although we assume a much smaller percentage of income, this situation has overwhelmed us like a freight train. If at least the train was loaded with RAM tablets and we could get some, it wouldn’t be bad. Images | Western Digital, Xataka In Xataka … Read more

What it is, what you can do with it and how it works to create your bots within Telegram

by

Let’s explain to you What is BotFather and how does it work? This father of bots, a bot created by Telegram to be able to create other bots within the messaging app. When you want to proceed to carry out projects such as controlling an AI agent from Telegram, or you simply want to have your information and news bot, this will always be the first step to take. Let’s start by explaining what exactly this bot is. Then, we’ll go on to summarize the things you can do with it, and we’ll finish by telling you how you can use it to create your own bot. What is BotFather BotFather is the official Telegram bot to create and manage bots created by you. Its idea is to be a bot that literally acts as the father of all the bots within the platform. Being official, this bot has been created and is maintained by the official Telegram team, not by third parties. With this Telegram bot you will be able to create a bot, give it a name, add a description and avatar, and manage it as you wish. It will also give you a bot token to connect to it. to an external program with which to control it and make it work. Therefore, what BotFather allows you to do is create the bot shellbut then you will need to connect it to some program to give it functionality. Of course, it will also allow you to edit the welcome message, configure visible commandsactivate or deactivate privacy mode or manage your permissions. But then, the actual programming of the bot will have to be done outside. In summary, we can say that this is a bot for creating bots, and that it works in such an extremely simple way that democratizes creating them so that anyone can do it. Of course, without forgetting that you only create the framework, then making it work depends on your skills connecting it with the tools where you program it. What you can do with BotFather The main function of BotFather is to create new bots which will remain in your name so that you can use them as you wish. You will be able to create a name and you will have to give them a username to be located. When you create a bot, you will receive the access token to connect it to external tools. You can also customize the bot you created to adapt it to your needs. You can change their description, their “about” presentation, and their profile photo. You can also choose the list of commands it accepts, and activate or deactivate advanced functions such as inline mode to use it from the text bar of any chat, its payment system, or its privacy in groups. In addition to this, you will also be able to edit the bot to change these aspects as you want, as well as regenerate access tokens in case you need a new one. How to use BotFather. Creating bots is as easy as open a chat in BotFather and write /newbot. This will open a process where you will first have to type the bot name and then the username. The bot’s username, the @bot to find and write to, must be empty and end in “bot.” Once you have it, you will be given the API token and the address to access it. Then, in the bot you will always have a button open that opens a window with your bots. By pressing one of them you can enter its settings and change all the aspects you want about it, from the commands to the information or the internal games and all its settings. In these options you will also be able to configure your payment system, and transfer or delete it. If you delete it, the bot will disappear forever and its username will be free. And if you transfer it, you will make a different user own it and be able to control and configure it. You will no longer be able to do it.

How to create songs in Google Gemini using its Lyria component

by

Let’s tell you how to create music with Geminithe artificial intelligence from Google. Gemini has just implemented the Lyria model within its AI assistant, which is capable of generating songs from your prompt of text. With this, Gemini begins to compete with Suno and other tools for create songs with artificial intelligence. It is true that Lyria in Gemini is still a little far from what the competition offers, but it is capable of generating amazing results. It will create both the music, the lyrics and the voice of a song. You just have to describe what you want, and the AI ​​will sing in your language without problems. The songs it generates are just 30 seconds longsmall musical clips that you can share. How to create music in Gemini Let’s tell you the two methods you have to create music using Gemini. One of them is a method with which the AI ​​tries to help you step by step to configure your musical style, so that it is faster, and the other is just invoking the creator with a prompt Make music with Gemini from its tools The first method is choose the option Create music from the Chrome tools menu. Simply click on tools and choose the option Create music. The option may also appear in the suggestions that appear below the writing field when you start a new chat. This will take you to a screen where you will be able to choose musical style that you want to use for your song. Each of these styles or pre-generated songs to work from has a button to listen to them, and you will only have to click on the style you want to continue. Now you simply have to write a prompt describing the song what do you want to do. When you do, you’ll see Gemini start thinking and summon Lyria, and then she’ll generate a song for you that you can play and even share. You will also have the option to regenerate the result or write a new prompt in which you request the changes you want to make. In this prompt you can give all kinds of details, such as musical style, subgenre, language, rhythm, theme, and you can even add the letter or tell it only words or phrases that you want the lyrics to include. You can specify structures, music speeds, whatever you want. Create a song in Gemini with a single prompt The second method is simply directly writing a prompt with everything. Here, the only important thing is that at the prompt indicate that you want a songand then describe how you want it to be. When you do this, when processing your request Gemini will realize that you have requested music or a song, and will directly run the Lyria tool to generate it. In just a few seconds you will have your song. Then you will be able write more prompts to request changes on the created song, or directly to compose a new one. In this prompt you can give all kinds of details, such as musical style, subgenre, language, rhythm, theme, and you can even add the letter or tell it only words or phrases that you want the lyrics to include. You can specify structures, music speeds, whatever you want. In Xataka Basics | How to Improve Gemini Answers: 14 Steps to Ensure Higher Quality and Better Sources

What they are and how to use them to create web applications within artificial intelligence

by

Let’s explain to you What are Claude’s Artifacts and how do they work?, one of the functions unique and most differentiating of this chat artificial intelligence. With it, you will be able to create web applications in Claudewhich you will be able to execute and use directly on your website or application. Anthropic’s AI is one of the leaders in the industry, and also the most important for programmers, with other functions such as Claude Code. We are going to start the article by explaining in a simple way what exactly artifacts are, and then we will tell you step by step how they can be created. What are Claude’s artifacts? Claude’s Artifacts are a functionality that allows this artificial intelligence model generate structured contentsuch as code, long documents and complete interfaces. The result will then be shown to you in a separate panel, but within the same conversation. If you have ever used Claude, you will have already noticed that there are times when instead of responding to you with plain text it makes a small functional application. This happens because this AI has a kind of internal mechanism to be able to generate this type of content. There are many types of artifact. They can be web pages written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, or simple games made with these languages. There may also be interactive React components, charts and data visualizations, Markdown documents, diagrams, or vector images. In this way, on the one hand you will have the code in the text window, but also you will have the possibility to execute it. Think for example that you want to build an application. The rest of the AIs may only generate the code for you, but with Claude an artifact is generated that you can launch and test. And then, if there are things that you want to change that don’t work, you just have to tell the AI ​​so that it can make the modifications and regenerate the artifact. And the same thing happens with the other formats supported by the artifacts. When you ask them to write an article, telling you a structure that contains titles, subtitles, different font sizes, etc., in addition to showing you the code you will also have to access the artifact, in this case a docx documentand download it to your computer. This means that instead of generating purely textual responses that you then have to transform into something useful, you are directly receiving the final product you want, or at least a functional version of it, and you can even download the file. How to use Claude’s artifacts To use Claude’s artifacts, you have to enter the AI ​​website or application and click on the section Artifacts from the left sidebar. This will take you to the section where you have various examples and templates. When you click on one of them, you will go to a screen where you will see a screenshot or the prompt to write to create it. You will also have an option to customize. This will help you test your first artifacts and explore methods to modify them. In the artifact index you will also have a tab to see the ones you have created, and a button New artifact to proceed to create a new one step by step. This will take you to a screen where you will be able to choose an artifact categoryand by clicking on it you will go to a step by step that will help you create your artifact. For example, if you click on the category of GamesClaude will then ask you what you want to do with this category, being able to create a game as an artifact. So, then you will go step by step where you are guided through everything, choosing the type of game, and other characteristics that you want it to have to give the AI ​​enough context to create it. ANDThis will help you when you are not sure the type of code you want to use or how to describe to Claude the artifact you want to generate. It is very useful for beginners, and the best way to start. You can also create artifacts with a prompt in which you describe exactly what you want. You can mention in it that you want to create precisely an artifact, and then describe the language of the application and what exactly you want to use.

China has managed to create an AI that has made Hollywood tremble. Disney has not been amused at all

by

The phenomenon of the month in AI is Seedance 2.0. To date, the most amazing text-to-video creation model and theard a dart at the same industry from Hollywood. So much so that Disney itself has legally warned Bytedance, the Chinese giant behind this model. The notice. Sources of Reuters They claim that Disney has sent a cease and desist letter to Bytedance, accusing the Chinese company of having used company characters to train its Seedance 2.0 model. According to statements, Bytedance would have created a package of copyrighted characters to feed this artificial intelligence, the main reason why it is so accurate at recreating them. Bytedance’s response. The Chinese company has not acknowledged having used copyrighted characters to train its model, but it has reacted to Disney’s notice. “We are taking steps to strengthen current safeguards as we work to prevent unauthorized use of intellectual property and likeness by users.” Beyond the statement, the company has not detailed what measures it is taking to prevent users from distributing copyrighted content, such as the one we have been seeing flooding the network for two weeks. They are not the first. Disney has already taken similar measures against Character.AIan AI specialized in creating animated characters capable of perfectly emulating Disney characters. The company It only has an alliance with OpenAIwith whom he signed an agreement so that Sora could generate more than 200 characters thanks to a three-year license. The operation included a $1 billion investment by Disney in OpenAI. Doors to the countryside. “Creative prompt engineering” and code modifications to make AI bypass the very limitations for which it is programmed are inevitable, in addition to all the derived Open-Source models that can be trained outside the jurisdiction. The key here is not in the dispute between Disney and Bytedance, it is that China has created the first model that directly threatens the creation of cinematographic content. Join the enemy. For some time now, the film industry has been clear that the coming years they will be cuts and embrace of AI. CEOs like Sony have already spoken out and positioned themselves as “very focused on AI”, making it clear that the current problem for movies is expense. Models like Seedance now allow us to generate in minutes what previously required entire teams and million-dollar budgets. In the coming years, video generation models will force the industry to rethink its cost structure. In Xataka | We are entering a new era of robotics driven by AI and Disney is its perfect showcase

In 1968 a man had the idea to create the first tablet in history. The problem is that he was decades ahead of his time.

by

If I tell you to think of the oldest tablet you remember, you may go back to the first iPad, which was released in 2010 (and, by the way, I turned seven last week). Or, if you’ve been following the world of technology since before the turn of the century, you might be familiar with the Microsoft Tablet PC from HP Compaq that was announced in 2001. In reality, there was someone who already tried to create one and it was much earlier, in 1968before the term “tablet” was even coined. At that time, Alan Kay was a young worker at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center who had been mulling over the concept of a personal computer for some time (in contrast to the military, business and professional use that reigned among manufacturers at the time). After speaking with other colleagues who were beginning their research on how the programming language Logo could help younger children advance in math, Kay came up with an idea: “This encounter finally made me see what the real destiny of personal computing was going to be. Not a personal dynamic ‘vehicle’, as Englebart’s metaphors had it as opposed to IBM’s ‘railway tracks’, but something much deeper: a dynamic personal ‘medium’. With a vehicle, one could wait until high school to take ‘driving lessons’. But if it was a medium, it had to extend into the world of childhood.” In 1968, Kay created the Dynabook conceptwhich he would spend several years profiling. in the book “Tracing the Dynabook: a study of technocultural transformations” They define it like this: “Kay called it the Dynabook, and the name suggests what it was going to be: a dynamic book. That is, a medium like a book, but one that was interactive and controlled by the reader. It would provide cognitive scaffolding in the same way that books and print media had done in recent centuries but, as Papert’s work with children and Logo had begun to demonstrate, it would take the advantages of the new computing medium and provide the means for new kinds of exploration and expression.” “A personal computer for children of all ages” With the idea of ​​its function clear, Kay then began to shape it into cardboard prototypes (as can be seen in the image at the top of the article). In 1972, the researcher presented his paper “A personal computer for children of all ages” in which he offered more details not only about his motivation and his vision of personal computing at the time, but about the own device that I had in mind. His idea was to get a kind of tablet-shaped personal computer aimed at education. This would have a reduced thickness, a liquid crystal touch screen and a keyboard. Like a regular notebook in size, with a graphical interface (a revolution for the time) that allowed the reproduction of graphics, music and text, and with internal storage for 500 pages. The keyboard would not be the only way to enter information: it could also be done via voice. In the image that Kay drew, the word “stylus” can also be seen, although he did not comment on it in his paper. Kay’s idea is that the Dynabook that could be connect to other systems to “copy” information to it (among them, the ARPA Network) and even predicted the existence of content “vending machines”, which could not be accessed until payment had been made. “The books can be installed instead of being bought or loaned,” he said. Regarding digital “ownership”, Kay said the following: “The ability to easily make copies and own the information yourself is not likely to weaken existing markets, as has happened with xerography, which has strengthened publishing; and just as tapes have not hurt the music industry but have provided a way to organize one’s own music. Most people are not interested in being a source or a smuggler, but rather like to trade and play with what they have.” According to Kay’s calculations, the components to manufacture it could cost $294, so it was not unreasonable to be able to sell it for $500, something expensive for the time. “The average annual amount spent per child on education is only $850,” he said, and that is why he even proposed a different financing model: “perhaps the device should be given away as if it were a notebook, and only sell the content (cassettes, files, etc.). “This would be quite similar to the way TV packages or music are now distributed.” “Let’s do it!” he said to finish his paper. Unfortunately for Kay, the Dynabook never materialized. Despite Kay’s enthusiasm, the Dynabook itself was never manufactured for lack of support at Xerox and due to the technological limitations of the time. Do you remember what computers were like then? Well, imagine what it would be like to build a tablet. Two Xerox PARC engineers, Chuck Thacker and Butler Lampson, asked for permission to try to replicate a similar machine on their own, and so it came to light. Highwhich was also known as “Interim Dynabook”. It was not a tablet, far from it, but it maintained some of the ideas that Kay had raised in her publication. He Xerox Alto was one of the first personal computers of history and Steve Jobs and Apple engineers they were inspired in some of its innovations and concepts, such as the use of a graphical interface for its own computers. Starting at Minute 2:27, the Xerox Alto graphical interface in action Kay is not only remembered for the Dynabook itself, but for the educational vision he gave to the project, for his peculiar vision of the personal computing paradigm and for how he came to anticipate some of the problems (and even technologies) that would come later. Not only that: in 2001, Microsoft presented its Microsoft Tablet PC, a project that Chuck Thacker and Butler Lampson had led. Yes, the same ones who once tried to implement … Read more

How to create a Telegram bot that sends you a summary made by Gemini of each email you receive in Gmail and other emails

by

Let’s explain to you how to create a Telegram bot that sends you a summary of your emails emails, such as Gmail. Thus, when you receive a new email, whether from anyone or from specific senders or topics, an artificial intelligence will make a summary and send it to you. All this without knowing how to program nor have technical knowledge. This is not something you can do simply by asking artificial intelligence, and we are going to need a program that generates workflows or work flows. We will use Make.com, because it is very complete and easy to use. Besides, Make.com It has a free version that is perfect for taking the first steps, although with some limitations. In Make we will have to link any artificial intelligence, although we have opted for Gemini because it is easy to obtain a free API for it. And then, We have chosen Telegram because creating bots is easyand it only takes a few minutes. In the end, what you will need is an API from an AI, a Token key from a Telegram bot, and creating the workflow chain on Make.com. In the examples we have used Gmail because it is also easy to link to it. Get your Gemini API first The first thing we are going to do is get a google api to be able to use Gemini in our project. For that, go to the website aistudio.google.com and sign in with your Google account. When you do, in the bar on the left at the bottom click on Get API Key. Now you have to click on the option Create API key that appears at the top of the screen you have created. This will open a window where you have to create the project for which you are going to use it in order to identify it, for example Gmail Gemini. When you create the project, you can now create the API. When you have created the API, you will see that it appears in the list of API keys. You just have to click on the left, below where it says Clueand a window with the API will open, starting with “AIza–“. Set up the Telegram bot The first thing you have to do is create a bot on Telegram. For that you have to look for the “@BotFather” tool and write to it as if it were a new user. Use the /newbot command to create a new bot, giving it a name to identify yourself and a unique username to access the bot whenever you want. When you do it, it will give you two things, first the username and address of your bot to access it, and second an access token with various figures and letters. You have to save this token to use later. Start creating your project Now you have to go to Make.com and click on the option Create new scenario to create a new project. In the options choose the option Build from scratch to create an automation from scratch. From what we are going to do, you must understand that we will create an automation of several modules, each one of them different. These automations will form a chainso that the action of the first leads to the second, and that of the second to the third. Come on, the order in which we put them is important. Add your email module as a trigger You will go to a blank screen with a button with the plus symbol. Here, click on the + button and from the drop-down menu choose Gmail. Inside now click on the option Watch emails to configure the action of reading your emails. This will cause your automation to be activated every time you receive an email in Gmail. It is a trigger, which is the element that will start this automation. Now click on the button Create a connectionwhich will open a screen where you have to name the connection at the top, and at the bottom log in with your Gmail account to link it. You will have to log in and give the website permissions to access your email. Once the action has been added, you can filter the type of emails that this automation executes. Can choose emails from a specific folder or labelas well as other criteria, so that these are launched and read by the AI. You can also set some limits. This screen gives you the possibility to fully customize the experience depending on What type of emails do you want the AI ​​to summarize for you?. It is an important step, especially because you will be able to make it only perform this action with certain types of emails. For example, they can be from senders related to your work or a specific project. If you open the advanced settings either Advanced settingsyou can specify even more. For example, you can configure so that only runs with emails from a certain senderwith a certain subject, and many other characteristics. Now you can configure from what moment do you want the data to be processed. For example, you can choose From now on so that they are processed from the emails you start receiving from now on. You can also link other emails. For this, instead of the Gmail module you can use the Email module, which will allow you to connect with Google, with Microsoft for Outlook, or with others through IMAP. Outlook also has its own module. Now add the Gemini module Now it’s time to add the second module. To do this, click on the + button to the right of Gmail, and on the screen that opens choose the option Gemini. In the options that appear in the module that opens, choose where to put Generate a response. This will now open a key module, where you simply have to write the Gemini API Key that we have generated at … Read more

one that leads you to create your own AI chip

by

ByteDance is developing its own artificial intelligence chip and is already negotiating with Samsung Electronics to manufacture it. It is at least what they point out two sources close to the project, which would make the Chinese company an even fiercer competitor in the segment that wants to revolutionize our world. TikTok doesn’t matter anymore (that much). TikTok has turned ByteDance into an empire within the social media segment, but the Chinese company has not stopped there. In fact, it has completely immersed itself in the world of generative AI and already has truly exceptional models like Doubao (GPT-5 or Gemini competitor) or Seedream. The only thing it was missing is its own AI chip, but pay attention, because that may have a solution in the short term. what has happened. Sources close to the company’s plans have indicated that ByteDance is working on the design and development of its own new AI chip, which they have named Seedchip, in line with its Seedream generative image and video AI models. Said chip could be manufactured by Samsung Electronics, with which the Chinese company is holding talks. A spokesperson for ByteDance assures that these plans for its own chip are imprecise, but it does not detail why. They go at full speed. The project appears to be moving forward at high speed and ByteDance aims to receive the first samples of that chip by the end of March. The company intends to manufacture at least 100,000 units of the chip, which would also be especially focused on the inference of its AI models and not on training. One of the sources consulted indicates that ByteDance hopes to later increase production to 350,000 units, but the time frame for that objective is not specified. Inference is increasingly important. Focusing on inference chips makes a lot of economic sense. Training models like Doubao requires the brute force of NVIDIA chips and that part is well covered. However, making its AI work for millions of simultaneous users is one area where ByteDance can save billions by having its own chip optimized for its code. Why partner with Samsung. Taking into account that China tries to avoid dependencies on foreign companies, this alliance with Samsung is striking. However, there may be a compelling reason for making that decision: negotiations with Samsung apparently include access to the supply of memory chips that are currently practically out of stock. And above all, to some very special chips: the HBM. A delicate alliance. The clear alternative to this association with Samsung would be to manufacture, for example with SMIC or even opt for Huawei, which is becoming the “Chinese NVIDIA” and it already has truly remarkable AI chips. Choosing Samsung seems to send a compromising message: that Chinese-made technology continues to lag behind that of manufacturers like Samsung. ByteDance already tried it. In June 2024, data already appeared suggesting that ByteDance had allied with Broadcom to develop an advanced AI chip. At that time, the partner chosen to manufacture these chips was TSMC, but it seems that this project has ended up fading. Everyone wants to have their own chip. ByteDance’s ambition follows the general market trend: almost all major technology companies have decided to create their own advanced AI chips. Google has your TPUsMicrosoft their Maiaand Amazon their Trainium to reduce your dependence on NVIDIA. And of course ByteDance’s main Chinese rivals, Alibaba (with his Zhenwu) and Baidu —which has its Kunlunxin division working on it—they have their own designs. But they continue to bet on NVIDIA. This effort aims to transform its short video businesses and cloud infrastructure services, but even if confirmed and successful, it will take time to make it a true reference. ByteDance plans to invest $22 billion in the AI ​​space, with the majority of that budget going toward purchasing NVIDA chips including the H200. Image | Xataka with FreePik
