Using free WiFi on airplanes almost never ends well. Iberia wants to change that with the help of Starlink

by

IAG, the group to which Iberia belongs, has closed an agreement with Starlink to equip their planes with satellite connectivity. The Spanish airline promises that all its passengers They will be able to sail for free from 2026 with speeds comparable to those at home. Best free WiFi from the plane. Until now, wifi on airplanes It used to be slow, expensive or non-existent. With this agreement, Iberia ensures that it will offer free high-speed connection on all its flights, both short and long distance, regardless of the class in which the passenger travels. According to the company, Starlink technology It will allow download speeds of up to 450 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 70 Mbps, enough to watch streaming series, work in the cloud or play online while flying. How Starlink works. The SpaceX network is based on thousands of satellites located in low Earth orbit, which reduces latency and allows coverage even in remote areas or areas with poor accessibility. This infrastructure is what gives Starlink an advantage over other air connectivity providers, which rely on slower geostationary satellites or limited ground connections. Beyond Iberia. The agreement is not limited to the Spanish airline. IAG will implement the service on more than 500 aircraft of its companies: Aer Lingus, British Airways, Vueling and Level. According to the matrix, this will make the group the European operator with the most aircraft equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi. The first plane with Starlink will begin flying in early 2026, according to the airline in your press release. Part of a broader bet. This movement is part of the Iberia Flight Plan 2030which includes 6,000 million euros in investments. Part of that budget is allocated to digitalization, artificial intelligence and the creation of the so-called ‘Iberia City’, an aeronautical innovation center. Luis Gallego, CEO of IAG, pointed out that “staying connected in flight is increasingly important for customers” and that this agreement demonstrates how the group works “together to drive innovation.” The Elon Musk factor. Starlink is owned by SpaceX, the aerospace company founded and run by Elon Musk. Although the technology has proven its effectiveness In other sectors, from rural areas without coverage to military operations in Ukraine, its integration into commercial aviation is still in the initial phase. IAG thus joins other airlines such as Qatar Airways or Hawaiian Airlines, which have already announced similar agreements with Starlink.

More than 30% ends in the hands of non -residents

by

Spain awakens the appetite of foreigners who want to buy/invest in housing. Or at least like that, it was in 2024, one year still marked by The effect of the Golden Visa. The data of the College of Registrars shows that about 15% From all transactions they were starred in foreign citizens. And not just that. Its weight was especially palpable in tourist areas, such as the Balearic Islands, Valencian Community or the Canary Islands, where they came to be around 30%. In certain points especially tensioning the demand was also intense by foreigners who do not even reside in Spain. As an example, in the first quarter of 2025 They monopolized 32% of Alicante transactions. A figure: 93,000. In the Spanish real estate market, foreign accents sound strongly. This was at least last year if we take into account the data collected by the College of Registered in His last yearbookin which the number of housing purchases formalized by foreign citizens is included in almost 93,000. In percentage terms, that equals 14.6% of all operations. The figure is interesting for two reasons. The first, because that 14.6% is very close to the maximum of the historical series of the College of Registrars, reached the previous year and that stood in 14.98%. The second reason is its volume. Perhaps the percentage is not as high as that of 2023, but in absolute terms the total operations was much higher: that year they were counted about 87,400while in 2024 the foreign demand gave rise to 93,000 purchases. Autonomous Community % purchase of foreigners (2024) Annual variation (PP) Balearic Islands 32.62% +1.12% Valencian Community 28.92% -0.34% Canary Islands 27.23% -1.31% Murcia region 23.63% -0.21% Catalonia 16.26% +0.47% Andalusia 13.97% -0.98% Total Spain 14.6% -0.38% With the map in hand. That 14.6% represents the “footprint” of foreigners in the total housing purchases registered last year. That is, it shows a global fact, at the national level. The thing changes when get down to detail and we analyze the different regions or provinces. There are points such as Extremadura, Galicia, Castilla y León or Cantabria, in which the operations starring foreigners do not mean 4% of the total. In others that percentage is triggered clearly. The most obvious case is that of the Balearic Islands. There almost a third of all housing purchases (32.6%) were signed by foreign citizens. It is followed by the Valencian Community (28.9%), the Canary Islands (27.2%), the Region of Murcia (23.6%), Catalonia (16.3%) and Andalusia (13.9%). The Balearic Islands are not just those that show a higher percentage. As if that did not make them stand out in itself, it is also the region that shows a greater interannual increase, of 1.1%. Can you go further? Yes. Thanks to The statistics of the Ministry of Transport, which allow answering a crucial question: how many of those foreigners who met houses in Spain last year really reside here? Throughout 2024 the administration registered 715,678 transactions, according to ministerial data. By classifying the type of buyer, 56,777 are attributed to foreigners “not resident in Spain.” That is, 8%. Territory Total transactions (2024) Non -resident foreigners Percentage Alicante 57,090 20,169 35.3% Malaga 37,719 10,500 27.8% Santa Cruz de Tenerife 12,445 2,728 21.9% Balearic Islands 15,464 3,932 25.4% Territory Purchases (1st T 2025) Non -resident foreigners Percentage (1st t 2025) Percentage (1st T 2015) Alicante 14,914 4,856 32.5% 36.8% Malaga 9,754 2,811 28.8% 30% Santa Cruz de Tenerife 3,290 781 23.7% 27.6% Balearic Islands 3,979 848 21.3% 25.1% Above 20%. This percentage is however superior if we analyze in detail the data of provinces or territories especially crowded by tourists from other countries. In Alicante for example, foreign buyers not residing in Spain represented 35.3% of transactions, in Malaga, 27.8%, in Santa Cruz de Tenerife 21.9% and in the Balearic Islands reached 25.4%. The photo updated. A few weeks ago economist Marta Suárez-Varela published A graph In X with data from the first quarter that show that 2025 has started with a very similar ‘photography’. In the case of Alicante, the percentage of non -resident foreign buyers on the total transactions stood at 32.6%, in Malaga it was 28.8%, of 23.7% in Sta. Cruz de Tenerife and 21.3% in the Balearic Islands. The data also start from government records. The graph It is revealing because it finds that purchases by non -resident foreigners are particularly relevant in markets with strong tourist pressure. In addition to those mentioned, Las Palmas, Murcia, Girona, Almería, Castellón, Valencia, Huelva, Tarragona, Granada, Cádiz and Barcelona are listed on Top 15. Government statistics also suggest that the purchases of foreigners in these areas have been high for years. In fact, their percentages were higher in 2015. In the opposite pole are Álava, Albacete, Palencia, Ávila or Valladolid. But what do they buy? The data of the College of Registrars give some more brushstrokes. For example, it shows that 7.5% of mortgages About housing counted by the agency last year, foreigners were signed, 13.1% more than in 2023. Its footprint stands out in the Balearic Islands, Valencian Community, Catalonia and Murcia, although registrars do not distinguish between residents or non -residents. The average amount of their credits was 171,200 euros and Those who bought the most They were the British, followed by Germans, Moroccans, French, Dutch, Romanians and Italians. If we talk about second -hand houses, the Bulgarians, Gauls and Moroccans stand out. If we do it from a new construction, the Belgians, Poles and Dutch. Click on the image to go to Tweet. What … and when. The Yearbook of the Registrars slides a fact that might seem irrelevant, but it is crucial to better understand what happened in 2024 in the Spanish real estate market. 10.8% of housing purchases starring foreigners reached or even exceeded 500,000 euros, the “maximum of the historical series”, Clarify The agency before remembering that in 2023 that same percentage of 9.7%. Not just that. 52.6% of those most value purchases were made … Read more

that Spain ends like other European countries

by

Torre Pacheco is a Murcia town of just over 40,000 inhabitants, a municipality that basically lives from agriculture and in which almost a third of the population is foreign. His name does not usually sneak into the headlines of the international press, but today they talk about him analysts in half Europe. The reason: a wave of unrest directed against immigrants who remembers what has lived in 2000 in The ejido (Andalusia) or those that have been registered in recent years in different parts of Europe, such as Dublin or more recently BallymenaUnited Kingdom. With the exception perhaps of El Ejido so far Spain had dodged that wave. The question seen what happened in Murcia is … Will it remain so? What happened? That Torre Pacheco, a town of 40,000 inhabitants From the region of Mar Menor, in Murcia, it has become national and international news, monopolizing headlines in the means of reach of The Guardian either The Telegraph. The reason? An outbreak of violence against the immigrant population of the municipality after a 68 -year -old neighbor received a brutal beating, an aggression that the authorities are still investigating (there are Two detainees) but that in the street (and networks) was attributed to young Moroccans. Why is it news? That what happened in Torre Pacheco has had an impact beyond the regional press responds to several reasons. The first, the scope of the riots. EFE He spoke This morning of eight detainees, five Spaniards and three Maghreb. The balance of injured Attended by emergency services due to gaps, blows and trauma is even greater. The wave of violence reached such a level that on the weekend the Civil Guard had to reinforce your presence. The trigger. The altercations have also been news for their political context and the role that the networks have played. The spark that jumped the riots was the beating that a 68 -year -old neighbor received on Wednesday while taking a walk. In An interview with The Spanish The victim said that a “Moroccan boy” was shouted at him and gave him “a stake” while other young people recorded him. At the moment the police have arrested Two Maghreb 21 and 22 who, although they did not participate in the aggression, were present. None reside in the town. From the beating the “hunt”. The event led the City Council to organize A manifestation to claim a “crime free” town and unleashed indignation in networks. Outrage and Fake News. Shortly after the case began to circulate A video that supposedly showed the beating, in addition to images in which the faces of the assumptions aggressors were identified. The victim herself He has made clear That the person seen in the video is not him, but that did not prevent the material from circulating through networks with ultras group messages for “hunt” immigrants. “They have come from outside the municipality to provoke because they know we live here,” he said to The country Omar, a 25 -year -old. Is it the first time? No. What happened these days in Torre Pacheco reminds in some ways the incidents that were lived 25 years ago In the ejido (Andalusia), although the balance of arrested and injured there was quite greater. The trigger on that occasion was three murders perpetrated by Moroccans in a matter of two weeks. Latest From them he was committed by an immigrant with paranoid schizophrenia who ended the stabbing of a young woman in a market in Santa María del Águila, which in turn unleashed one wave of violence that left dozens of injured. If this weekend could be seen altercations Between ultras and immigrants in Torre Pacheco, people were seen in the ejido of 2000 armed with bars Iron attacking immigrants and destroying premises. The tumults extended Between February 5 and 7 and forced the government to strengthen The presence of the Civil Guard and National Police, which did not prevent the episode from resorting with Several dozens of injured and damage. “Organized xenophobic groups have set fire to which immigrants are housed, which scared hide from the games of neighbors armed with sticks and chains that run through the streets,” He reported by then ABC. Beyond Spain. What happened in Murcia is news for another reason: it connects with more or less similar episodes registered over the last years in other countries in Europe. The details or scope change, but not the target: immigration. In November 2023 A series of stabbing unleashed a wave of violent protests against foreigners in Dublin and a few weeks ago an alleged violation case resulted in unrest Xenophobes in Northern Ireland. In Sweden and Denmark protests have also been convened during which copies of the Qur’an have burned, Belgium has suffered racist disturbances and in February the AP agency It echoed of migrants who have received an “increase in racist attacks” in Magdeburg after the attack against a local Christmas market. On the social agenda. There are also mass mobilizations of opposite sign, in which xenophobia is denounced. In March without going any further, France welcomed several marches with tens of thousands of participants who rose against hate to foreigners. The phenomenon confirms in any case that racism has an increasing importance in the social and political agenda of Europe, an boom that coincides with The progressive strengthening of the extreme right. What is the context? Cases such as Torre Pacheco, Ejido or Dublin incidents of 2023 are framed in a clear context: The increase of the immigrant population in Europe. In February Euronews revealed which in 2024 resided in the 27 community countries around 44.7 million citizens born outside the EU, which represents almost 10% of the total population. The data reveals a remarkable year -on -year increase, of 2.3 million. The countries with the highest number of people born abroad were, in order, Germany, France, Spain and Italy. At least in 2019 near DL 30% From the population of Torre Pacheco, in which agriculture … Read more

What will there be when AI ends humanity

by

In a mansion with a view to Golden Gate, the elite of artificial intelligence met last Sunday to discuss a disturbing issue: the end of humanity and what will come later. Among glasses (without alcohol) their around 100 attendees, among which there were philosophers, businessmen and researchers, imagined a future in which humans no longer existed, but an intelligence created by us. How should our successor be? The end of the end of the world. The event we have known through This Wired report It was called ‘Worthy Successor’ and aimed to discuss precisely about that: define a “successor to height” for when humanity no longer exists. This idea is related to the creation of a General Artificial Intelligence or AGIfor its acronym in English. A (for the moment) concept of superintelligence that would overcome the human being in all facets of knowledge, so good that, in the words of Daniel Faggella, host of the party: “You would with pleasure that she (not humanity) determines the future path of life itself.” Who attended. The first: Who is this guy and why should we listen to it? Faggella is the founder of Emerj Artificial Intelligence Research, a consulting firm and analysis of AI. In 2016 he wrote in Techcrunch On the risks of AI and is currently focused on disseminating the moral and philosophical approach, specifically the creation of this ‘Worthy Succesor’ an idea that had been hovering for a long time. According to account On LinkedInhas been contacting different relevant personalities of the industry to, two years later, to hold this meeting. At the party three papers could be heard from the hand of Ginevra DavisNew York writer, the philosopher Michael Edward Johnson and the host itself. The complete list of guests has not transcended, but Faggella presumes that founders of AI companies attended with values ​​of up to 5,000 million dollars, people from the laboratories that are investigating to create an AGI and some of the most important philosophers and thinkers in the sector. The superintelligence that will end with everything. In Faggella’s words: “The great laboratories know that AGI will probably end humanity, but do not talk about it because incentives do not allow it.” It sounds like conspiracy theory, but it is not the first to warn of something like that. A decade ago, Bill Gates told us We should fear the AI. Shortly after Musk demanded regulation To mitigate the dangers of what was to come. More recently, different AI experts signed A message that alerted the “risk of extinguishing for AI”. Openai also thought about The risks of the AGI. There is even talk that his statements about the creation of an AGI would have been The reason for the sound dismissal of Altman months later. What’s true in all this. We cannot know for sure, but we do know that most of the arguments about the IMMINENCE OF THE AGI And their risks are based on opinions and speculation, not on empirical evidence or concrete advances. For example, recent research has shown that current systems They still fail in basic reasoning taskswhich contradicts the idea of ​​a short -term superintelligence. Moreover, there are indications that The generative AI could be close to its roof. There is also no consensus among experts. There are detractors who They consider it ridiculousbut of course, it is less ‘viralizable’ than to say that AI will extinguish us. And most importantly: we cannot ignore the fact that those who make these statements are business people Like Altmanand the business is very expensive And you need to finance. Agite the loop insisting on the imminent arrival of the AGI could be a way to raise more money for its companies. What we will leave when we disappear. The central theme of the party was not so much how humanity will be extinguished (it seems that this is taken for granted), but what kind of intelligence we should create to make our successor. Attendees heard presentations that revolved around the values ​​and capabilities that this new superior intelligence should have. For Faggella, humanity has the responsibility of designing a successor that is aware and capable of evolving. The philosopher Michael Edward Johnson highlighted the remains of creating a conscious AI beyond the possible extinction: “We risk enslaving something that can suffer or trust something that cannot be trusted,” he said during his presentation. Rather than forcing AI to obey, he proposed a joint education of humans and Ias to “pursue good”, whatever that is. In short, an interesting debate from the ethical and philosophical point of viewbut with little anchor in reality. At least for the moment.

The US will revoke the visa of Chinese students to protect their AI industry. The risk is that he ends up wounding her death

by

China is by far the largest world graduate producer in Stem races (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), both in absolute and relative terms to the global total. The phenomenon is an exceptional magnitude, but there is a country that has just been slaughtered in their noses: United States. What happened. As they pointed out In The New York Times A few days ago, the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, advertisement that the Trump administration “would aggressively revoke” the visas of Chinese students. In these visa cancellations, those students with ties to the Chinese Communist Party (PCC) or those who study “critical fields” that did not define clearly but probably include that of AI will be included. Source: The New York Times. Impact. In 2024 in the United States, 20% of the visas granted to students went to young Chinese students. The measure is worrying for American universities, which depend on international students who pay the full cost – without scholarships – for their annual income. In addition, this decision affects both students who want to ask for a visa from now on and those who are already studying in the country. In total there are about 275,000 Chinese students in all types of university careers. Uncertainty. It is not clear what criteria will be followed to revoke these visas and not as quickly these measures will begin. Nor is it known if China will retaliate, although the number of US students in China is much less significant. In 2020 USA He already expelled to 1,000 Chinese students with ties with Chinese military schools. A massive practice. A report Published by the State Department and the NGO called the Institute of International Education indicated last year that China was the second country with the highest share of international students: only India “exports” more students. In the 2023-2024 COURSE, it received 1.1 million international students, of which 331,000 came from India (23% more than the previous year) and 277,000 from China (4% less than the previous year). Source: CSET. China is absolute power in Stem. If there is a “graduate” graduate producer “(science, technology, engineering and mathematics), that is China. Collected data By cset They reveal that in 2020 China led the number of graduates in these disciplines, with a total of 3.57 million students. Only India approaches with 2.55 million students, but for example in the US the figure is four times lower than in China: 820,000 graduates. Source: CSET. And the one that is most dedicated to these disciplines. Not only is it that China has the greatest number of Stem graduates in the world: it is that the percentage of students who choose these disciplines is also the largest in the world. 41% of students are launched to Stem Carreras. They are followed by Russia (37%), Germany (36%, Iran (33%) and India (30%). In the US, only 20%of students bet on scientific careers. Source: Macro Polo / Paulsen Institute. And that includes AI. In People’s Daily They pointed out A few days ago how approximately 50% of the main researchers of AI are trained in Chinese universities. The worrying thing for the US is not that: they depend a lot on them. A report of the Paulgo Institute of Chicago (USA) recently revealed that 38% of AI experts that develop their professional career in the US They have formed in Chinese universities. They are in fact more than those who have a strictly American origin (37%). China does not stop betting on Stem Education. Between 2012 and 2022 the budget spending of the Chinese government in education increased from 2.2 billion yuan (268,167 million euros) to 4.85 billion yuan (591,187 million euros), more than double. Several Chinese elite universities They have announced His intention to expand his curricula with the objective of prioritizing the strategic needs of the country, and here the AI ​​- who You start teaching in schools– It’s key. Imminent danger. This domain has a direct impact on the capacity of innovation, technological development and industrial competitiveness of China, but also of the countries that allow Chinese students to study and then work in international companies. Cut your wings to that talent is to cut them to innovation. The US will get just the opposite of what it intended. The analyst Alberto Romero explained How these measures are probably designed to protect national security – which Chinese students do not end up “spying” for China. “However, instead of helping the US to enhance their industry, what can happen is that they weaken it. Not only that: that revocation of visas can precisely help China meet their strategic objectives. Nvidia already notified with the hardware. The US opted to veto the export of its advanced chips from AI to China. The shot has come absolutely for the cylinder headand instead of preventing Chinese development and innovation, it has put a rocket. They do not seem to have learned the lesson, and revoke the visas to Chinese students can end up being an even bigger shot that comes out of an even bigger cylinder head.

The world seeks that pot with AI that ends up replacing the iPhone. China already prepares to win that war

The Holy Grail of Hardware with AI. In recent days, the OpenAI project, which has Bought the Jony Ive design company To create a mysterious Hardware of AI device. There is also a clear interest in the segment of the connected glasses and with AI: what Google presented with Project Atlas and with their Android XR glasses He is also promising. Those developments start from the US, but they will not be alone. Not much less. Hi, Lightsail. Dong Hongguang, employee number 89 of Xiaomi and who for years was head of the customization layer of the Xiaomi, He has just created his own company. It is called Lightsail (光帆科技) —Guangfan Technology – and its goal is to create a device with AI. It has completed two modest investment rounds of 18 million dollars in total, but after the project are Catl, Afterhokz, Goertek and Gigadevice. A diverse team. Lightsail has a promising team, since he has hired former employees of Xiaomi, Huawei, Bytedance, Alibaba or Tencent. All of them have worked in fields such as operating systems, AI and device integration. The support of the aforementioned companies is also key: the company ensures the support of technological partners that provide the components to create that future device. AI AGENTS ALWAYS. The objective, Explain The analyst Rui Ma, is to create a wearable in which to integrate an agricultural purpose of general purpose. Or what is the same: that this hardware device –A pendant? A AI HUMAN PIN -type clip?– Allows a constant voice interaction in which AI is responsible for solving all kinds of doubts and tasks. A future full of wearables with AI. Companies such as Lightsail state that in about five years wearables will stop limited to specific tasks to be a total interface to interact with AI. For now, the Software Components is somewhat green, and does not allow dynamic coordination and multimodality support that something like this would need. China is super strong in glasses. In the short term the most promising product are glasses with AI, and in China that market is about to exploit. There are “five dragons” of augmented reality In this country with notable products, and the rhythm they are developing and powerful models is frantic. Xreal, Rayneo, Rokid, Ingo and Meizu are the great protagonists of a segment that is in full boiling. Trying to unseat the mobile. There are several companies in China and the United States that are working on these hardware devices with AI, and what is raised is the definitive witness change that could leave the mobile in the background. At the moment what we have seen has been a disaster: Both the Rabbit R1 and the Humane Ai Pin proved to be very greenand our mobile phones are still today great devices. In fact, they are still clear candidates to be the center of our experience with AI. Magic Leap promised too much. Then the disappointments arrived. Beware of expectations. The aforementioned failures of the first hardware devices with AI have left a worrying sensation: better not to trust the promises of this type of products. Both promised benefits that were later worse, and there was an over -dimensioning of expectations. We live it in the past with that disappoint with the augmented reality of Magic Leap. Sam Altman’s speech and Jony Ive follow that pattern, and according to the OpenAi CEO what they are creating will be “the most amazing piece of technology that the world will ever see.” You have to grant the benefit of the doubt, but as explained by analyst Ed Zitron In a recent column, Altman’s trajectory and IVE does not leave good prospects here.

Heat ends, but storms arrive

by

The heat is being the undisputed protagonist of this week at the weather. However The warm episode He has his days (or his hours) counted in much of the Peninsula: as of today the extreme heat will live with rains and storms: some communities will have to alert for very different phenomena. Variopintos phenomena. Meteorologists foresee that the warm episode that affects the peninsula will fade in the next few days and that at the beginning of next week the instability will be the dominant tonic. The transition will not be simple: during the next few days some areas will see the arrival of rainfall and storms while others Taguada vs. dorsal. Let’s put some context to understand what is happening at the atmospheric level. A few days ago we saw an arrival of an Atlantic anticyclone and an associated dorsal. The dorsal are areas of high pressures that extend from a high pressures center lengthening the scope of anticyclonic time. The stability associated with high pressures, along with other factorscontributed to a high insolation that warmed the air of the peninsula until it brought us to the current situation. However meteorologists They announce now that a trough display in the next few days the dorsal. That is, from a situation we move on to the opposite, with a region of low pressures associated with a storm changing the meteorological panorama. A heat pause. And how this translates: then that instability will take possession of peninsular meteorology. Some areas will begin to see storms today, but it will be from Sunday, with the arrival of the dorsal, which these are generalized. Heat warnings and storm warnings. The peculiar transition between two weeks marked by opposite phenomena will leave A singular notice map of the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet), a map in which yellow and orange warnings coexist due to maximum and storm temperatures (and also yellow notices for rains). In this sense, today it will be the most unique: 14 autonomous communities (all peninsular except Murcia) will see active notices throughout the day. Of these highlight orange notices due to temperatures of up to 40º Celsius in the Sevillian countryside; and orange warnings for storms inside the Cantabrian cornice, from the Asturian southwestern to the inner Bizkaia. In unknown terrain. Spring is a transit station where changes in the atmospheric situation are not entirely strange. However, we can talk about an anomalous season in terms of meteorology: from a drought we spend some of the months with more rainfall than we have record. Now we return to one more panorama in the tonic of recent years: with a summer that is advanced leaving us extreme heat during the last week of May. To know what will happen during the real summer we will still have to wait a few weeks. In Xataka | The reservoirs are almost 22% above the average of the last decade.
