These rabbits in a springboard are funny. And they are unleashing one of the biggest trusted crises in AI

At some point it had to happen: a wave of people wondering, and the doubt extending virally, about when the images and videos produced by artificial intelligence too realistic so that we cannot distinguish them from reality will be. And above all, what crisis of trust in what we see will take that. And the video that has unleashed the crisis is the most harmless possible: a lot of rabbits jumping in an elastic bed. Unleashed rabbits. The video is Extremely simple (Just eight seconds): A group of rabbits captured with a security camera that points, during the night, to an elastic bed, have fun taking advantage of the darkness, jumping on it. Result: more than 180 million views, and that the video is obviously false, with a two -headed rabbit at the beginning and two rodents that merge into one towards the end (although a detailed analysis by an expert will make clear the many video problems). Network movement. The video moved online, and soon jumped to other social networks. Quickly his artifice was detected (and For examplein X he was soon marked by the community’s notes), but his adorable images had more power than their failures. On the one hand, you have to have your eye trained to detect your problems, on the other the poor image quality that adds likelihood and the natural of the movements of rabbits do the rest. And above all, there is, as a huge question, his absolute lack of objective: why would someone want to deceive you with this? And that is the key. Animals in springboard. Of course, this has generated a Imitors rale (as This beareven more realistic than rabbits, although with an extra problem: the ball seems to be attached to the canvas) that have only underlined the original drama: we laughed at our elders because Ia was cheating on them, but this already affects everyone. There are those who are responding to the rabbits of the elastic bed and their power to make us doubt everything With songs (“Sometimes your love feels as real as an unknown rabbit”) or with the finding of “I am old“It is true, the video has a lot in favor to deceive us (the fixed fund makes the AI do not have to generate precisely what the IAS usually fail), but fear … is real. The crisis of trust exists. According to AI is sophisticated, we are developing, as a psychological protection, a “crisis of trust” that is already studying with figures in hand. The advice on how to combat misinformation They happen And there are those who affirm that trust is, in fact, The authentic value of the economy of artificial intelligence, above other capacities. It is no longer that AI is ending our confidence in those who have to tell the truth, Like journalistsbut it is making us doubt our perceptions. According to the daily use of AI shoots, also Our distrust does. It is paradoxical that the apparent inconsequence of a video of animals filmed with a night camera is the first notice. But somewhere you have to start. In Xataka | We have a philosophical problem with the generative AI: they are giving us the reason in everything we ask them

Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds had been rivals for 30 years. The funny thing is that they have just known and a selfie has been made

Being fond of technology between the late 90s and the first years 2000 implied Be a witness of a fierce War of sides Among the supporters of Windows, Macos or being an alternative “outsider” that renegated both (and even Graphic environments) and hugged free software from the hand of GNU/Linux. As standards of each of those sides: Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Linus Torvalds. Between Bill Gates and Steve Jobs there has always been a certain Love -od relationship What He led to collaborate and throw yourself The hit to the head recurringly. However, after more than three decades dedicating expletives, we have had to wait until 2025 so that Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds are face to face and appear together (and well avenues) in a photo. A historical encounter between two legends Bill Gates has defended throughout his career the right of developers to license your programs I already charge for them who uses them. For its part, on the opposite side, Linus Torvalds bet on a Open and collaborative modelin which each user can adapt their tools to their measure freely. Bill Gates and Microsoft. Linus Torvalds and Linux. Both represent the different ways of understanding the evolution of computer science in the last three decades and, despite being the main protagonists and flag bearers of the most fierce dialectical battles In the technology blogs of the 90 and 2000, they did not know each other in person. The person responsible for facilitating the historical meeting has been Mark Russinovich, creator of the popular SysInternals softwarewhich currently acts as Director of Technology (CTO) of Microsoft Azure. Russinovich, always has been very supportive of the Open Source solutions and it was one The drivers of Azure support for Linux. That position has assured him a Good relationship with Torvaldswho accepted the invitation of the director for dinner with Bill Gates and Dave Cutler, one of the main Windows NT developers and Azure promoter. It has transcended very little about what was discussed during the unique dinner, but what has transcended has been the historic selfie that Russinovich did to immortalize the meeting and that he has published in Your LinkedIn profile. It is undoubtedly an unusual image of two staunch enemies for more than three decades, which They just met And they pose with relaxed and affable attitude. Touch the photo to go to the original message Next to the photo, the host could not hide his emotion for having achieved such a milestone: “I had the emotion of my life, organizing dinners for Bill Gates, Linus Torvalds and David Cutler. Linus had never met Bill, and Dave had never met Linus. No important decisions were made about the kernel, but perhaps the next dinner.” Linux very touched and more integrative Microsoft The moment in which it occurs does not go unnoticed either. Linux has gained market share thanks to the proliferation of cloud infrastructure and is already installed in about 100 million equipment (mainly servers), achieving a 4.13% market share. In 2021 and 2022, the system had a 2% share, which has been growing since then. According to data Statcounter, the Windows fee remains in a loaf 70.21%. For its part, Microsoft left behind the times of Steve Ballmer describing “cancer” To Linux. Since the arrival of Satya Nadella to the Microsoft direction, they have been carried out different approach samples between Windows and Linux. One of the most important was the possibility of deploying a Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) that allows you to execute an environment Linux in Windows computers. Perhaps, as Russinovich said in his post “important decisions were made about the kernel” but, taking into account the attendees of that dinner, they may talk about greater Linux integration On the Azure Platform of Microsoft. Maybe they decide at the next dinner. In Xataka | Bill Gates’ fortune records an unprecedented fact in the last 33 years: Millionaires’ Top 10 ‘has been left out Image | Mark Russinovich
