fine

Spain will fine those who do not flute the contents generated with AI. It is a colossal technical and regulatory challenge

by

If you have generated a text, an audio or a video with AI, it will be better than tagged. Otherwise you could expose yourself to a really important fine. It is the conclusion of the draft law that the Council of Ministers approved yesterday, and is especially oriented to avoid the risks of The Deepfakes. The Pope and the Alarms. In March 2023 it became viral An Deepfake of Pope Francis carrying a theoretical coat of Balenciaga. That triggered the alarms of the European Union, which launched the AI ​​law, approved by the European Parliament on March 13, 2024 and that He entered into force Months later, on August 1. Now Spain adapts that law for a clear purpose. Spain against the Deepfakes.The Minister of Digital Transformation and Public Function, Óscar López, explained that “AI is a very powerful tool, which can be used to improve our lives or to spread bulos and attack democracy.” Do not tag AI contents, severe infraction. This bill considers as a serious infraction not comply with the labeling of texts, videos or audios generated with AI to identify them of adequate froma. It is something that the EU has been insisting since June 2023, but there are two problems: that almost no one is doing it at the moment. Colossal fines. The minister did not specify how to perform that labeling, and according to his words, It will be Aesia the one that puts the rules for that labeling. As already established by the AI ​​Law, breaching the regulations raised fines of up to 35 million euros and/or between 5 and 7% of the worldwide turnover of the offender company. Initiatives to label: have them, there are. The need to label texts, images, videos and audios is evident, but for now there is no universal and accepted alternative. Google proposed its own solution In May 2023 and I rowed it in October 2024 With Synthidwhich can be applied even in short texts and is already used by Gemini. Adobe too He threw himself soon To try to solve the problem. Goal has its own Water marks for audios generated by Ia. Even Openai joined the effort With a combo of a Cr symbol (“Content credentials“, also driven by adobe) visible and an invisible water mark in the images generated with AI. The C2PA standard architecture makes it clear how each content adds metadata that indicates the steps in which it has been edited and how, including possible uses of AI. Source: C2PA. The C2PA standard and the search for consensus. The most remarkable proposal in this regard is that of the standard C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity). This coalition manages technologies such as the aforementioned Content Credential Specification To label content generated spor ia. Many of the main companies are in that group, including Openai, Amazon, Google, Meta or Microsoft, but there is a great absence: Apple, which (inexplicably) does not seem to pronounce on this regard. Where are AI labels? Although the labeling technology is there, it has not just been widely used. There are isolated cases: goal began to label images On Instagram or Facebookbut that’s having problems To perform that labeling, which is tried to apply to already published content. YouTube too He has taken steps In that sense and Google begins to implement it In your search engine and your ads. Even manufacturers such as Sony or Leica label their photos in some of their cameras. Label everything, whether or not done with ia. Ideally (utopia?) It would be that any content was labeled in two ways: either it is made with the assistance of AI, or is it a content in which the AI ​​has not helped. We have the perfect example in the camera apps of our mobiles with Android or iOS: those images and videos should be labeled with something similar to a “content without ia”, for example. This is what Sony or Leica cameras pose, but imposes a huge problem for the entire hardware and software segment. We need adoption to shoot. Companies seem to be clear that something like this is necessary and reasonable, but starting it is being a especially long and complex process. Cryptographic labeling is probably the best option to prevent Deepfakes from becoming an even more important threat, but here is a decisive step: that companies adopt these measures. Even if it is little by little. In Xataka | The companies of AI have been jumping the copyright for years. They have just suffered a disturbing legal defeat

‘La Revuelta’ has made the issuance of lotteries at last something interesting. In return, a millionaire fine has been taken

by

Since ‘The revolt‘He began to design ways not to interrupt his program to give the information to which it is obliged With the results of the lottery, it has become one of the most commented and admired sections of the Broncano program. A good sample of how they are able to return chaos in their favor in a creative way, but that has a spiny back: it will cost a million euros to the public entity. Different formulas. Practically from the moment of the premiere of the Broncano program, RTVE was experiencing with different formulas to locate the microspace that gives the lottery information. First he broadcast it immediately after the news. Then he located it after the end of ‘La Revuelta’, but the channel audiences plummeted. In autumn of 2024 he even relegated the space at midnight, but after receiving a warning of lotteries, RTVE saw that he would have no choice but to allow the results of the lottery to be issued in the course of ‘La Revuelta’. It happened on December 9. Humor reigns. Since then, ‘La Revuelta’ decided to face the obligation with humor. Has taken advantage to launch Pullites to competitionShow a 75 -second count in even Jorge Ponce He came to threaten the spectators Less faithful with a razor. That was the turn: since then, fiction pieces were created that could be enjoyed without volume, which was given to the Lotteries’ miniespace, and that tended a bridge towards mood classics such as’ The Office ‘. Among the most memorable, A discussion of Jorge Ponce with the teambut there has been everything since Whodunits at full speed to first aid courses or, of course, References to the Meme of the Moment. Problems with lotteries. The agreement signed with lotteries and bets of the State forced public television to broadcast the results between 9:45 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Only for extraordinary and justified reasons, as a special informative could be delayed, always with prior to the public. However, since the premiere of ‘La Revuelta’, the entity detected that RTVE inclined its contract in more than twenty occasions, which motivated a penalty for compensation of just over one million euros, according to sources of the entity they told The confidential. The PP has taken the issue to the Mixed RTVE Control Commission that is taking place Today in the Senate. A known fine. The world He also reported the sanction for irregularities committed in the last quarter of 2024. The situation was so conflicting between RTVE and lotteries that, according to this newspaper, RTVE even came to the tender for the broadcast of the lotteries and bets of the State, a contract that allows the Public Corporation to enter about 52 million for four years, being also the only television that contest. They had to mediate members of the Government for Cascajosa Concepción, previous interim president, not let the contract escape, for many obligations that would lead. New conditions. In this way, the contract has been modified to adapt it to the important presence of ‘La Revuelta’ on the grill. From 2025, the daily programs would have a duration between 80 and 110 seconds, and would be issued at some point in a broader strip, between 21: 45h and 00: 00h. Of course, this could also generate their own problems: according to ‘the world’, this form of broadcasting the lottery could be breaking the audiovisual law, leaving the raffle of being an independent block to become a part of ‘the revolt’. Private chains could thus file a complaint with the CNMC. Header | RTVE In Xataka | A game of chess, protagonist of the biggest victory of Broncano to date: ‘The revolt’ is not a day flower

15,000 euros of fine and nine months in jail

by

Use the driving card of a third to get rid of the withdrawal of points. The practice is so common that it is possible to find ads in digital purchase and sale spaces, such as Milanuncios. That is what a driver did in 2015. Now, the Supreme Court has settled its case and has bad news. Identification. When on a highway or highway we circulate above 150 km/h, the driver risks the withdrawal of two to six points from the driving card. The economic amount exceeds, in these cases, 200 euros and can reach 600 euros. However, when this speed is recorded by a Fixed radar (or with Pegasus)the DGT will force us to identify the driver with the intention of subtracting the person who was driving the corresponding points. A lagoon in which many drivers found a good basket. I prefer to take my money. That obligation to identify the driver has led to a repeated scam: endorse the fine for loss of points to a third party. It is usually relatively simple with older people who have stopped conducting those who do not care about the points they have in their license. The situation can be much more harmful for those who work at the expense of maintaining an active driving license, such as a delivery man. It is not strange, therefore, that in digital spaces of sale we come to find ads in which the purchase of other people’s driving card is proposed for an amount that, in some cases, reaches 1,000 euros per retired point. Documentary falsehood. The maneuver is recurrent because, like fixed radars “hunt” the vehicle behindit is difficult to confront the version that a 90 -year -old was not the one after the steering wheel of a car that has registered a speed of 160 km/h. However, it has many risks since those who endorse their points to the license of a third party will be incurring a crime of documentary falsehood, which multiplies the problems in case justice discover that we are trying to deceive them. It is what happened to this León driver. 15,000 euros of fine. The case of this man was recorded in 2015. Then, he was sanctioned for speeding with a punishment that forced the withdrawal of points. To avoid this, he registered his 82 -year -old father as a offender. Paid the fine, everything should have been left in what often happens: a hoax to the administration. This case, however, is particular because the driver did not maintain a good relationship with his father who, upon learning of the trick, denounced the driver, explain in The country. Now, a decade later, the Supreme Court has reaffirmed in the sentence imposed by lower instances: 15,000 euros of fine and a nine -month prison sentence. The Supreme Court ensures that the driver lacked the truth when answering the requirement of the sanction and is reaffirmed in the conviction of the Provincial Court of León, who alleged that there had been a crime of documentary falsehood. Inconsistencies. To defend himself, the driver claimed that during the previous years, justice has not followed a specific jurisprudence. Likewise, he assured that in his way of acting there was an “ideological falsehood” or, what is the same, missing the truth in the narration of the facts. However, the Supreme Court ensures that this is not true. They understand that when the driver’s registration is falsified, an alteration of the document itself occurs. Thus, this makes the “document in its entirety constitute a fallacy”, while recalling that it has produced direct damage to the figure of the father.

A fine of 150 euros

by

Few things are more annoying than train With two or three hours of travel ahead and that, right in your car, someone starts listening to music or watching videos on the mobile without headphones. Well, one of those things that can be worse is that this pleasant subject will talk on the phone. But it can go to more, because it can Do it on speaker So that, not happy to make us listen to his voice, we can also hear that of his interlocutor. The hairs like escarpias, xatakers. Well, in France, a passenger who responds to David’s name already knows what happens when you have similar behavior. 150 Euritos. As They collect local mediaThat is the fine that the SNCF (National French Railway Society) put David, a 54 -year -old male, last Sunday, February 2. The reason, explained the passenger, is to have made a call in speaker not on the train, but at the Nantes station. The fine was 150 euros, but the total amount amounted to 200 for not having paid it on the spot. What happened? According to the passenger, he was talking to his sister “stuck to showcase, behind the stores. I always have the habit of isolating myself. I put the speaker mode when I wanted to check on the Internet, if (I was going to have) my connection.” David says there was no one close, except “a group of five agents a few meters.” One of these agents approached to let him know that he could be fined 150 euros for the noise caused. According to David, he hung the call, but received the fine in the same way. When refusing to pay it, the amount rose to 200 euros. This is the version of the passenger. The version of the SNCF. In statements a Le Parisienthe SNCF confirmed the fine and gave a different version of the events. David was not isolated, but in “a waiting room for passengers and customers who want He had asked several times, “said the organic. “Things were heated between the agents and the passenger,” he concluded. The key. He Article R2241-18 of the Transport Code. This article establishes that “in the spaces and vehicles destined for public transport of persons or merchandise, it is prohibited for anyone to use, without authorization, devices or instruments that produce noise, or disturb the tranquility of others making noise or causing discomfort. Failure to comply with the provisions of this article is sanctioned with a fourth class fine. ” According to the SNCF, the same would have happened if instead of talking on the phone I would have been listening to music. Image | Talgo And in Spain? There are no contemplated sanctions of this type, at least in Renfe. However, the operator can take measures in the event that one or more passengers breach With the planned standards. As the Article 90 of the Railway Regulations: “The railway company is empowered to exclude travelers from their transport vehicles that, with their behavior, alter the order within them or endanger transport security.” That is, if you bother more from the account they can force you to go down at the next stop, but there is no economic sanction as in France. In addition, in the event that the behavior causes delays or incidents, it is possible that the causes are forced to pay compensation to the other passengers. There are cases. In 2018, a group of 11 men who celebrated a bachelor party caused a 23 -minute delay In the Madrid-Málaga AVE. According to the company, these users “altered the order increasingly intense, shouting, singing and hitting the train walls, ignoring the indications and calls for attention of Renfe staff.” Under the article mentioned above, the auditor requested the eviction of the group. Upon arriving in Córdoba, where the train makes a 15 -minute stop, “the defendants took the opportunity to definitively climb their private parties in the train cafeteria, where they were drinking, dancing, singing and shouting at full volume and totally uncontrolled, “says the sentence. Such was the situation that the National Police had to intervene. Having arrived the train delayed, Renfe had to pay the remaining 216 passengers a compensation worth 7,676 euros in total. The judge considered that the fault was not from Renfe and established a solidarity conviction among the 11 participants of the farewell. In other words, those who had to pay the sanction at the rate of almost 700 euros each were condemned.

A year ago Barcelona began to fine those who walked loose dogs. It has more than 340 fines

by

Throughout 2024 the agents of the Urban Guard of Barcelona imposed 341 fines For an infraction that has little to do with circular In an incorrect way or dirty the streets. No. The reason that (on average) made them get the ball almost daily was to meet neighbors who walked to their dogs without strap in areas that are not allowed to do so. The figure is interesting because 2024 was the first year in which the new restriction was applied. It is not known how much 341 fines were collected, but the norm provides penalties of Between 100 and 2,400 euros. The data: 341 fines. The figure He has revealed it The newspaper of Catalonia and It is confirmed By Betevé: Throughout 2024 the Urban Guard imposed 341 fines for people who walked their dogs loose through the streets, parks and other public spaces of the city. The data is interesting for two reasons. The first, its number. In Barcelona there are many dogs, it is estimated that Between 102,600 and more than 180,000depending on the source that is handled, but still 341 sanctions continue to assume almost one per day. Premiering ordinance. The second reason is that 2024 was the first year in which Barcelona applied its New Ordinance on pets, in which among other issues it is required when and where dogs can be released. Do not respect it translates into sanctions ranging from 100 to 300 euros or even They reach 2,400 In severe cases, such as walking a dangerous dog without a strap or buzal. The City Council began applying these corrections to offenders in December 2023when the moratorium that had applied until then. New sanctions, old norm. Actually the regulations on the pets of the Catalan capital is quite previous. The ordinance of protection, possession and sale of animals (OPTV) It was approved in Xabier Trias timesbut its application was accompanied by a conditioned moratorium to be resolved by certain slope fringes, such as the famous (and controversial) “Civic and Responsible Tendency Card”. Another pending measures was the creation of what was called “shared use zones” (ZUC), areas in which dogs could be loose certain hours a day. The idea, as its name indicates, is that in them the pets in freedom, their owners and other passersby. And how was it? The “Civic Tenure” card He did not go aheadbut in March 2023 The Barcelona City Council announced the final approval, the decree that defined the 225 spaces in the city for dogs, including the ZUC. Of course, the local government already warned that the new guidelines would take nine months to enter into force, which would not move into practice until December of that year. The exact date was on the 18th. From that moment on the police He started fine To the owners of the dogs that walk to their pets without respecting the ordinance. More than 900,000 m2 for walking. According to the calculations, then by the City Council, in Barcelona there are more than 900,000 square meters for the dog recreation, sum of the 116 “Pipicanes” That already existed, the 109 ZUC areas and the beach of Levant. The result, about 5.4 m2 per dog. “The threshold of a minimal recreation zone in each neighborhood is increased and it is achieved that 95% of the citizens who live with dog can have a space less than 10 minutes from home,” He presumed the session in 2023. In The 109 ZUC Dogs can walk unleashed, but adjusting to certain rules and only during certain time slots. The measure did not completely convince the owners of the dogs, who in 2023 complained that the number of areas without a strap was very limited. “They are poorly thought. There are concentrations of dogs well above the desirable,” He warned to The country A spokeswoman for Spanish. Less complaints. The first year of application of the ordinance and activation of ZUC areas in Barcelona leaves more than that balance of 341 fines. In fact The newspaper Precise that there is another much more positive reading: a sensitive fall in the number of complaints recorded by the presence of feces and urine in the streets. Analyzing equivalent periods of 2023 and 2024 verified that 4,341 to 3,955 was passed. In addition to brand new ZUC, the Consistory has decided to distribute bags and bottles for the urine. And in other cities? Barcelona is not the only city that has regulated how and where to walk pets. In Madrid for example The Ordinance It details that in public spaces animals must be accompanied and “driven by chain or resistant cord.” The norm It allows them to be loose, but only in areas limited by the City Council itself or in parks and gardens, although respecting schedules that change slightly winter to summer. Zaragoza is another example. The general rule It is that the dogs are subjects, although “exceptions” are contemplated, such as the spaces prepared by the Consistory or the landscaped parks and squares with some extension and have the approval of the local authorities. The owners must also respect certain schedules. As for sanctions, Barcelona Nor is it the only city ​​that It has fined Already to pet owners for leaving them loose without respecting the municipal ordinance.

The DGT will install 122 new radars in 2025. Locations and when they will begin to fine the 24 radars that are already active

by

The radars save lives and in 2025 we will continue with the installation of 122 new devices on the Spanish roads, of which 17 fixed and 7 section entered service this January 21 With these words, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, Minister of the Interior, confirmed that The DGT will install more than a hundred radars This year 2025 on Spanish roads. Thus, the head of Interior stressed that the fulfillment of the speed limits “is key” to avoid accidents. The DGT has been defending that installing New radarsas well as the use of vans and even camouflaged motorcycles With mobile radars, you should improve accident figures on roads. The organism has been doing special emphasis on speed although Distractions are the main cause of accidents With mortal victims on our roads. Be that as it may, what is certain is that the DGT aspires to deploy 122 new radars on Spanish roads. All new radars and where will they start fine Although in its information the DGT has also made it clear that its intention is to install a greater number of section radarsfor now, the 24 new radars that already work on Spanish roads are mostly fixed. As you can check in the list below, only seven of the 24 new speed controllers They are stretch. The rest, the 17 new radars are fixed. This is confirmed by the DGT that, in addition to its locations, has confirmed that they came into operation on January 21. That does not mean, however, that they are already sanctioning with fines that can reach the 600 euros and six points in the driving card. At the moment, the cinemometers will pass a first test phase in which only the drivers will be notified that have exceeded the maximum allowed speed. That period lasts a month and, later, the drivers will be sanctioned. As for its locations, the DGT confirms that the 17 fixed radars are found in the following places: Province Road Kilometer point (PK) Almería A-1050 1+200 decreasing Almería AL-3117 1+400 growing grenade N-432 425+950 decreasing Malaga A-7054 3+500 growing A Coruña AC-221 2+550 growing A Coruña AC-841 9+800 decreasing Asturias N-634 377+850 growing Asturias GJ-10 0+250 growing Lugo LU-862 74+150 decreasing Ourense N-525 237+880 growing Pontevedra N-550 84+150 growing Alicante N-332 89+050 decreasing Alicante CV-86 13+800 growing Alicante CV-905 7+050 decreasing Alicante A-77a 0+420 growing Valencia V-31 6+125 d Valencia CV-410 3+510 c The seven new section radars are found in the following locations.
