How to tell the goal to call you the way you want and choose the name or nickname you want to use

by

Let’s tell you How to tell you how you want me to call you to Goal AIso that the artificial intelligence of WhatsApp or Instagram uses this name as long as it refers to you. You can also do this for the first time to establish your name. This is something that you will be able to do in a very simple way, You just have to use a prompt Naturally asking you to call you the way you want. Goal AI in WhatsApp Or Instagram will do it and remember it. Change what a goal is called ai You do not need to change anything in the configuration for me to call you differently, all you have to do is ask with a natural languageas if you asked another person. I have used the prompt From now on, call me XXXXchanging the XXXX by the name you want to use. From then on, every time I have to refer to you, you will mention the name you have asked.

Goal has an excellent reason to launch a gigantic flame variant 4: Specialization capacity

by

Goal advertisement Last Saturday the launch of flame 4, his new family of Open Source models of IA. The company takes chest with three multimodal variants and one especially striking for being absolutely huge in size. But it is for a good reason. Hello, call 4. It has been almost a year since the goal announced Call 3and his new family of models arrives with three different variants: Call 4 scout: the most “small”, which competes with Gemma 3, Gemini 2.0 Flash-lite and Mistral 3.1. Call 4 Maverick: Compete with GPT-4O, Gemini 2.0 Flash and Deepseek v3 Call 4 Behemoth: An absolute monster that as Meta surpasses GPT-4.5, Gemini 2.0 and Claude 3.7 in various benchmarks. The latter is not demomently available publicly. Amazing context window. These models offer a context window of 10 million tokens, something simply spectacular. That means we can enter a gigantic amount of data such as entry (PROMPT), for example huge code repositories on which to work directly. Mixture-Of-Experts. These models use mixture -of-ou-explet architecture that already took advantage for example Depseek. As we explain then, this allows to divide the model into “experts” that activates according to the type of request. That improves efficiency and has proven to be a fantastic technique for models to behave optimally with much less resources consumption. Scout has 16 experts and Maverick has 128. This type of architecture also favors the inference phase, or what is the same: the models will respond not only efficiently, but fast and fluid. Call 4 Behemoth, the “Model Professor”. It is not yet available, but this variant is absolutely huge and has two billion parameters (2T in English), when calling 3, which was huge (405b) was a five times smaller model. Deepseek R1 has 671,000 million parameters, three times less that calls 4 Behemoth. The key to this model is that it serves as “teacher” for smaller and, above all, specialized variants. The flame 4 comparative table with respect to some of its rivals. Specialization. This variant is also a perfect candidate to be “distilled” and starting from it to obtain much smaller but equally capable models that “learn” from that “teacher teacher” that is call 4, but adapting to more concrete areas and scenarios and in which they can highlight. And less censorship. OpenAI’s image generator He already took a 180º turn and applies much less inspired censorship By Grok 3. Goal does the same with flame 4, which according to the company has become “responds with a strong political inclination at a rate comparable to Grok in a controversial set of political or social issues.” Thus, we have a somewhat less “politically correct” model. For now debatable results. Although the model seems to score very well in benchmarks, experts like Simon Willinson They have tried it And they ensure that their first impressions are not especially remarkable. Gemini 2.5 Pro seems to behave much better in one of the tests he performed when summarizing and analyzing a text. However, with flame 3 something similar happened, and both calls 3.1 and calls 3.2 significantly improved their behavior. They can already be tested. Call 4 is now available In WhatsAppInstagram, Facebook or the website of Goal AI. And once again, experts offers the possibility of download italthough you will basically need a cluster with a lot, a lot of memory to be able to run them at home. They are also available in Huggingface. And soon “will reason”. Mark Zuckerberg Indian In its Instagram account that in addition to these models, next month we will see a model called 4 reasoning that will be the company’s first reasoning model. It is an especially interesting variant, especially when competing with Deepseek R1 (and its successor, which It will appear soon).

That will improve the experience of watching videos in goal

by

Hispanic countries have a wide dubbing culture for the contents in other languages, so that we consume films, series and programs bent with Voices in the local language. As one of the main content creators From YouTube, Mrbeast knows. That is why he said that if he were CEO of Facebook, the first thing he would implement would be a dubbing system of his videos as Youtube already has. Mark Zuckerberg agreed. Speak the same language as the audience. Mrbeast and Mark Zuckerberg agreed In the podcast Colin and Samir Show Where the interviewers asked Jimmy Donaldson (real name of the YouTuber), what would he do if Mark Zuckerberg appointed him CEO of Meta. Donaldson made Mark Zuckerberg see that the finishing video platforms are staying behind in terms of the ability to offer content in several languages. According to Mrbeast, this lack of dubbing options is negatively affecting the scope of videos on the platform. In another language you don’t get the same. As the Youtuber explained, the audience’s commitment is not the same when they see a video in their language as in English, therefore, the Content creator with more subscribers From YouTube he was especially concerned with the target tools in translation. “Something that seems really bad (finish) is that on YouTube you can have different audio clues. 70% of my audience on YouTube does not speak English, so I upload videos and then you simply upload a lot of different files. If you click on my video in Mexico, it automatically reproduces in Spanish. What is brutal is that when I publish those same videos on Facebook or in any of your platforms, I can not care about the dubbing. Audience is always infinitely lower because people from Mexico, Brazil and others cannot see them with dubbing, “Donaldson explained in his speech. Audience of India Brazil, Indonesia and Mexico. No traffic data of Mrbeast has been revealed, but According to data From the GMI consultant, some 2.7 billion people around the world use YouTube every month, of which 476 million users are from India, 147 million Brazil, 139 million Indonesia and 84.2 million users see content from Mexico. His videos are reproduced in more than 100 countries with 80 different languages, so for Mrbeast, speaking the same language as his audience is the key to the success of his videos. There click Facebook. Mrbeast was very clear: “If he were the Meta CEO, one of the first things he would be would be to improve the dubbing options.” For him, it is essential that goal helps creators reach more people and to increase the engagement With its content. One of those tools is the language. “It is quite overwhelming once you understand it. You think: ‘uf!, Only 15 or 20% of the world, or the figure that is, consume content in English.’ It is brutal. It is almost barbaric to use a platform in which you have to choose a language,” said Donaldson. The interesting thing is that Mark Zuckerberg agreed with Mrbeast. He acknowledged that the lack of dubbing options is a problem and that artificial intelligence could be the solution. Mrbeast has already proven that the Use of dubbing generated by AI With his own voice, hearing retention on other platforms has increased. The multilingual future with the finish line. Zuckerberg agreed that the youtuber in the importance of languages ​​when reaching the audiences, and added that there could have the AI ​​could have A very important role. “Actually, retention is 1% greater in that language because when you do dubbing with AI you can use my voice instead of sounding like a dubbing actor,” Donaldson explained, indicating that her producer already uses cloned voice tools with voice with AI to fold your videosinstead of applying a neutral dubbing voice or simply applying subtitles. For the goal, which seeks to have a global presence returning to the origin Without Facebook algorithmthis option is even more important. By incorporating dubbing generated by AI, the goal could increase audience retention, expand its user base and compete more effectively in the panorama of social networks.

The success of goal AI in the US has been limited, but now they want to try in a country addicted to WhatsApp: Spain

by

It is late, that sure. The question is whether he will achieve what he has not achieved in the United States. There they can use Goal AI Integrated on Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram for almost a year, but it does not seem that these options have managed to convert this platform into a success. Will they do so in Spain and other countries in Europe? Goal AI sneaks into your chats. The Meta AI announcement in April 2024 raised A very different approach to that of chatgpt. Instead of considering as an independent chatbot that one can use in a web browser, he invited us to use it as part of WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram. He sneaked into our chats And in our social networks, and the question was if that strategy would work. Modest options. We could Test goal AI Thanks to the use of a VPN when it appeared in the US, and its options seemed decent, but of course not striking in front of the competition. In order to focus, it was still the integration of the service into its social networks. Many users … After all this time the adoption of this AI platform has been remarkable according to those responsible. Susan li, cfo in the company, indicated To investors in January 2025 how Meta AI already had 700 million active monthly users – who have used it at least once a month -, compared to December 600. Growth seems striking, but talking about monthly users is very different from talking about weekly or daily users. … but with apparent little use. In fact, David Curry, from the Business of Apps consultant, indicated in CNBC In December that the Meta AI website generates only 10 million visits per month, much less than great services such as Chatgpt or Gemini, and even that less popular services such as Anthropic Claude. Of course, what matters is that users use it within the platform, but their success at WhatsApp, Instagram or Facebook is an unknown and it is not easy to measure it. Goal does not want us to get out of WhatsApp. A priori the idea seemed suggestive and promising: WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook are already applications in which people spend hours a day, so trying to offer an AI directly in them seemed logical. However, the personal character of these applications collided with that more general use of AI. Ask an AI inside WhatsApp for a recipe or a summary of some data does not seem so natural for that more personal function, and although the option is useful, it does not seem to have set among those who have tried it. Users complain. Some of the users who have tried it in the US They simply hate her and warn how to use it that data is collected and can be used to give them to advertiserswhich means another threat to privacy. Others ask why it cannot be deactivated or eliminate from your apps. In fact, one of the debates around the goal strategy is precisely at that point: the company He has forced To users to have a goal AI in those applications without having requested it. Will we chat with goal AI in Spain? The adoption of WhatsApp is particularly high in Spain, and this may be a good opportunity to know if the idea of ​​goal works here. In the US that option does not seem to have been a success, which makes you doubt its success in other regions. In the company, yes, they seem to be preparing for that eventuality. But now they want to bet on an independent app. Although goal AI has Web versionthat option is still not available in Spain or in other countries of the European Union. Integration into their social networks does not seem to have been the success they expected, because now the company is determined to Offer an independent application to the chatgpt style. Mark Zuckerberg I had already warned of that intention at the beginning of the year, in fact. After the appearance of the news, even Sam Altman joked indicating that perhaps it was time that in OpenAi they began to create a social network. Goal AI Plus. Everything points to what goal will offer both a free version of its service – as the one it already offers – as a payment. That “goal ai plus” would adopt the subscription model and thus compete with Chatgpt plus and other similar services. Here the challenge is precisely to offer more striking options than those of other services, something that for now does not seem to happen. Well in Open Source, regulate in the rest. Calls, THE OPEN SOURCE OF METAit is excellent for developers and for those who want to use AI at home, but their benefits compete with those of increasingly striking models, and a goal, for example, does not offer reasoning model that competes with Deepseek R1 nor has he announced news on very fashionable land such as AI agents or search engines.

Xiaomi wants to revolutionize the Chinese market of the electric car and its next goal is not Tesla. They are your registration

by

Although they have become a reference in recent years, China has been investing in all kinds of measures to promote the use of the electric car. In recent months we have explained how The supply chain dominate with iron of batteries or how the State has sustained sales applying constant purchase subsidies. But this strategy has been transversal and has also tried to take into account even the slightest detail. One of them, for example, was to give Specific registrations to new energy cars, as they are known in the country to plug -in and electric hybrids. These tuitions are green. As in Spain with the environmental badge of the DGT, These special registrations that began to sell in 2016 They served to quickly identify electric cars or plug -in hybrids. The measure worked quickly because it had a lot of practical and some image. In the first place because some cities began to impose restrictions on blue enrollment cars. That is, all those who were not new energy vehicles. For example, In Beijing Combustion vehicles were forbidden to circulate one day a week to reduce pollution. Vehicles with green registrations were released and to facilitate the identification, the use of the new registration was essential. At the same time, In Shanghaiwhere traffic was hell, the authorities began to restrict the delivery of new registrations with lotteries. But there was another way to get a car: Green enrollment. Because, indeed, if you got with a new energy car you could skip this procedure. And, of course, green registration also had some image. In China it was understood that if you had a green registration in your car it was because You were committed to the environment. As the prices of electric cars could be low, it was not so much a status symbol but it did serve to project an image of a person that embraces the cleaner technologies of the moment. Now, Xiaomi is committed to changing the rules. More and more personalization Once the electric car has gained ground, the use of green registration has lost some sense. At least this is what Lei Jun believes that has proposed a substantial change in the enrollment plates of electric cars. In addition to being the founder of Xiaomi, Lei Jun is also a congressman in the National Congress of the People In China since 2013. His figure has been re -elected on several occasions to participate in this body that the Chinese Communist Party uses to carry out future laws and regulations. Every year, the National Congress of the People meets and the congressmen propose the New laws or the modification of the existing ones. During a period that usually reaches two weeks, the proposals are debated for a subsequent application if the case is. This year, Lei Jun has taken the floor to propose changes in regulation of vehicles and the application of artificial intelligence in their operation. In his speech, Lei Jun has proposed five modifications that You can see in this link. Among them, it encourages to implement changes to develop systems of Autonomous Level 3 and 4 Driving. That is, vehicles circulate for themselves without human attention. In addition, it is committed to investing in a greater production of electric cars and their batteries or facilitating the use of artificial intelligence in them. But what has caught attention is your proposal to change the current registration of new energy vehicles. Lei Jun points out that intelligent enrollment can be incorporated that facilitate traffic management, abandoning current plates. That is, take advantage of digital functions in them. And, taking advantage of this new functionality, it is committed to eliminating the obligation that the registration of new energy cars are green. He points out that vehicles are increasingly interested in the personalization of their cars and that they want to body color does not unravel with registrationas is currently. The interest of buyers in customizing cars has been growing in the Asian country. In Speedhuntersspecialized in vehicle modificationsexplained that In 2023 they had already been surprised With Chinese interest in personalized vehicles. Until now, the restrictions to apply changes in cars have been iron but as they point out in their article, which they accompany with photos, more and more Chinese clients are interested in a culture of customization similar to the Japanese or what we knew here as we knew here as Tunning In the early 2000s. Little by little, customization has been pending among customers to the point that some televisions sell as a disruptive element The factories in which cars are personalized customer taste. The business has reached such a point that The United States Department of Commerce He points out that “the China customization and modification market was valued at 10 billion US dollars in 2021 and can reach 31.2 billion dollars by 2025”. The reality is that in recent years customization in the car market has shot. The state impulse To continue selling cars when in 2022 production had stopped as a consequence of COVID-19 was seen as a bet in this regard. In fact, There are already specific fairs in which only individual modifications are treated for cars. Changing the green of the license plate is, without a doubt, one more step to boost customization in vehicles. A business that has been growing over the years and is especially interesting for companies offered by the most expensive vehicles on the market. In fact, among the richest The purchase of individuals manufactured individually has been popularizedwith the aim of having a unique car that meets all its demands.

Goal has taken the first step to dismantle its external verification system. And he has done it with an X algorithm

by

Shortly before Donald Trump returned to the White House, Mark Zuckerberg announced What a goal would end his Third Party Data Verification Program And I would bet on a system of community notes in the purest X style, the social network of Elon Musk, one of the leading allies of the new president. With this decision, goal sought Leave in the hands of users The task of pointing out and contextualizing misinformation on Facebook, Instagram and Threads. When Zuckerberg made the announcement, it was clear that, although the company pointed out with this new approach, its implementation would gradually begin in the United States. There were no indications of a possible deployment in the European Union, where the Digital Services Law could mean an obstacle. Now, with more details about the initial launch, we can get a better idea of ​​its operation. Fixed goal in the calendar the beginning of its new initiative. The social networks giant He said that It will begin to test the community notes on March 18. That is, in less than a week, this new approach will take its first steps. As planned, the deployment will be gradual and will be limited, for now, to the United States. From that day, the program taxpayers will begin to leave their collaborations. How will the system work? The community notes system in Meta allows users to add context to publications that can be misleading or need additional information. However, not any note is published immediately: there is an evaluation process that, as explained by Meta, seeks to ensure that contributions are useful and reflect different perspectives. A collaborator detects a publication on Facebook, Instagram or Threads that needs context. For example, a viral post says: “Bats are completely blind and depend only on sounding to move.” The collaborator writes an explanatory note. It must have a maximum of 500 characters and include a link to a reliable source. Example: “It is a common myth. Bats are not blind; They have good vision and combine ecolocation, hearing and smell to adapt to different environments. More info here: (Link). “ Other collaborators check the note and vote if it is useful. It is not published automatically. You must have the support of people with different perspectives, not just with a majority. If the note receives enough support, it is published. It appears next to the original publication to give context. The publication about bats is still visible, but with the explanatory note. Goal will use the X algorithm. The company led by Mark Zuckerberg has chosen to use, in a first stage, the algorithm of the notes of the community of X. This system, which promotes a similar function in the social network previously known as Twitter, is open source and It is available in githubwhich allows anyone to audit and reuse it. However, the adoption of the X algorithm by goal is not a definitive step. The company plans to take it as a basis for developing its own version. “As our own version develops, we may explore different or tight algorithms to support the way in which the community notes are classified and described.” No scope penalty. Goal ensures that its new system against misinformation will not punish the distribution of publications. Unlike the old fact verifiers program, where the marked contents could lose visibility, the community notes will only add context without affecting who can see them or how far they can go. But the notes will not appear yet. As we have said, the community notes system will begin to take its first steps on Facebook, Instagram and Threads this month, but users will not see them yet. It is an evaluation phase. The idea is that the deployment occurs has taken the first step to dismantle its external verification system. And he has done it with the X algorithm when the company is sure it works as a wait. During this period, they plan to make more adjustments and improve the system. Old system verification labels will continue to appear in the United States until the new system begins to deploy generalized in that country. And what will happen in Spain? Although the Meta External Verification Program began in 2016, did not land in Spain until 2019. In the country, the multinational continues to have verifiers such as Newtral, Maldita.es and AFP, which continue with their usual work. Meta ensures that its intention is to expand community notes globally, but it remains to be seen how possible challenges related to European legislation.

Larry Page, founder of Google, has a new company and a goal between eyebrows and eyebrows: manufacture products with AI

by

While Serguéi Brin focuses in stepping on the accelerator To position Google in his career for AI, Larry Page is already exploring the industrial profits that future artificial intelligence models will have. As published The InformationPage would be behind Dynatoms, a startup focused on applying artificial intelligence algorithms to the DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE OF PRODUCTS optimizing the Use of materials and tools. Of artificial intelligence to industrial intelligence As It echoed TechcrunchLarry Page’s new project would not be linked to Google (except for its founder), and seeks to create “highly optimized” designs through the use of AI models to accelerate processes that usually require months of human work. This initiative marks the return of Page at the head of a technological project, then staying for several years in the role of discrete investor of aeronautics companies As Kitty Hawk. No details about Dynatoms activities are not known yet, but for what he has published The Informationits approach would not be limited to software: the platform would directly integrate the designs generated by In factories to start their industrial production. This connection would close the cycle from the design of a product to its chain manufacture, something innovative in a sector where both stages are usually managed separately. Page is not alone in this adventure. According to the investigations of The InformationHe is accompanied by Chris Anderson, former director of Kitty Hawk technology and hardware expert. The rest of the team would be formed by specialized engineers in AI, robotics and manufacturing systems. Since it is a very recent project in which Larry Page is still working, the names of these specialists are not known, but given the trajectory of both founders, it would not be unreasonable to find former Alphabet and Kitty Hawk employees. Early, but with a lot of future Although Page has been working in Dynatoms for months, the startup still has no launch date or confirmed customers. Sources close to the project cited by The Information They indicate that its founders prioritize technology before their presentation to the public. This contrasts with the usual approach in Silicon Valley de Lanz minimally viable productsalthough then they have to close them precipitously. According to a McKinsey studythe market potential to implement the supply chain and manufacturing could contribute up to 3.5 billion annually to the manufacturing sector by 2030. If Dynatoms manages to climb, he could compete with giants such as Autodesk or even with the generative tools of companies such as Openai, but specializing in concrete industrial applications. But it will not be alone in that area. Startups such as Orbital Materials is already using the for Develop new materials For the industry. Physicsx They are applying iA to optimize product design complex Like cars or aircraft using digital twins to accelerate its development. All of them are working to optimize processes with tools that do not even exist, but when they arrive, they will be at the forefront in their application.

Zuckerberg dismissed 5% of the goal template “for low performance”. His former employees say there is another reason

by

In the same way as It is not the same to resign That they fire you (although the result is that you are left without employment), it is not the same as they fire you For a staff cut that for “low performance”. Goal, ha 5% of its workforcearguing that they were low performance employees. However, this public justification has enraged the 3,600 meta -employed since they stigmatizes them as bad workers when they apply for new jobs. The former employees say that their work performance has only been an excuse, but not the real reason for their dismissal. A “cruel” trick to cut staff. “I have decided to raise the level of performance management and fire low performance employees more quickly,” wrote Mark Zuckerberg in the internal memorandum sent to its employees in January. Such and as he published Business InsiderThis was raising the scale of what the company considered “low performance” to put employees in the pillory who, until that moment, considered that they had a good performance. Sally Maitlis, a professor of organizational behavior and leadership at Saïd Business School, assured to Fortune That the “low performance” label could be a ballast for the professional career of the former employees dismissed, doubly penalizing them with the loss of their employment and closing the door to find a new one. “It is a terrible way of being labeled and is clearly not useful for anyone in the labor market,” Maitlis said. They have shouted the four winds. Before such injustice for them, employees have not hesitated to raise their voice from social networks to claim their professionalism and denounce the bad faith that, according to them, has used a goal in their dismissal. “Today they have fired me, but not for being a low performance employee. Let’s be clear: that label is misleading and, for many of us, it is totally wrong,” ” published on his LinkedIn account Steven S, former product of Instagram product. Kaila Curry, who worked as a content manager, said in her LinkedIn profile that: “I often asked for comments and they always told me that I was doing a good job. They never assigned a PIP (performance improvement plan), they never gave me correction indications and never guided me or gave me clear expectations. I just struggled … I am not a person of low performance.” A mortgaged future. The main complaint of the employees focuses on the argument that has publicly wielded a goal to justify the dismissal of the 3,600 employees since, as they argue, it harms their options for free to get a new job. “The most difficult thing is that goal says publicly that they are cutting low yields, so it feels as if we had the scarlet letter on our backs. People need to know that we do not have low performance,” declared one of the employees dismissed to Business Insider. “It is possible that these people are superstar in other places. Therefore, it seems to me that it is an additional punishment because they are people who probably have a very high market value,” He pointed out to Fortune Dan Cable, Professor of Organizational Behavior at the London Business School. Employers are answering. One of the most recurring advice when running for a new job is not criticizing the company that has just fired you. However, against any forecast, the strategy of the finishing targets has had a positive impact. Many recruiters and companies have shown interest in the profiles of the target employees. “Good employers look for people who are good communicators, capable of defending themselves, just as they would in their position within the organization,” He stood out to Business Insider Ashley Herd, Recruitment Expert from LinkedIn and founder of a manager recruitment company. “Those who speak of course can be found, being realistic, with a smaller group of possible employers, but it will be a group that really aligns with their values ​​and supports professional success and long -term happiness,” said the expert. Now stigma is target. Mark Zuckerberg said the layoffs were not due to economic difficulties, but to a restructuring to focus on the IA development And, in fact, vacancies had opened to incorporate into this new profile. Since the hiring process is a relationship of two, the complaints expressed in social networks by their ex -employed can complicate that process. User forums as Reddit or Teamblind have filled the new candidates about the new goal policy with warnings. “It seems that it was more money than performance. Be careful to join this company. Zuck does not care about its employees. Only the company,” wrote A meta -employed. “Meta is now the most cruel technological company that exists,” added another former partner. Other great technological companies Like Microsoft or Amazon have already announced that they will take more into account the performance of their employees when signing their layoffs.

More and more countries in the world are painting their colored roads. The goal is the same: reduce accidents

by

A road with a huge red line. Another with a green line that shines in the dark. Stripes to the sides, circles in the curves and even pedestrian crossings that have become murals. The fight to contain traffic accidents is living its own fever: the fever of painting roads and streets. And it makes a lot of sense. Really It’s about deceiving our brain. When a driver or motorist perceives that it circulates through a narrower step, he lifts his foot from the accelerator instinctively. The same happens if you approach a crossing where the entire ground has been painted to get attention. It is obvious that this narrowing does not exist. Everything is in our mind. It is proven that a vertical signal does not generate the same perception of risk as road paint. Simply because a signal is easy to ignore it but when the view detects that the ground has a lower “free” surface a signal is sent to the brain that perceives a greater risk and the driver decreases speed. The samples are multiple and are being tested with them worldwide. Of course, Spain is also doing its own tests. A generalized illusion It doesn’t matter if we talk about Spain or any other place in the world. The human being behaves the same in Scotland, the United States, Malaysia or Andalusia. We have the test that in all these places solutions are sought to a recurring problem with an equally recurring mechanism: paint the soil. Within the cities The most striking cases are found in countries where urban distribution is designed for the car (United States) or where a road crosses a town (France). Nor are the evidence in school environments or small populations where it is common to cross walking (Spain). The first example is not only a test. As rescued in BloombergNew York City implemented Asphalt Art Initiativea project to draw large murals at conflicting crosses in the city. The results have been striking, before launching the project, 50% of the pedestrians who had suffered an outrage had suffered injuries. Painting the soil, the vehicles circulated more slowly and the percentage of pedestrians that referred injuries after an outrage had been reduced to 37%. Dragon teeth on a Madrid school Reducing the speed at which it circulates is especially important in these cases, The DGT He points out that at 30 km/h, the possibility of dying in an outrage is 10% but that at 50 km/h, the risk increases to 80%. That is why the measures taken with the educational centers where in recent years have grown up of those known as “Dragon teeth” They aspire to generate the sensation of narrowing in the streets. In Spain we have other cases. El Campillo, municipality located 70 kilometers from Huelva, He is studying If painting on zebra crossings that generate a 3D perspective It can help reduce drivers. It is not a new idea, much less, it is something that has also been tested in Iceland and USA. Of course, in the latter case they received criticism from the Federal Highway Administrationwho claimed that it was simply a false security sensation for pedestrians but doubted their direct impact on specific cases. Criticism focuses on that, really, there is nothing that really prevents the driver from continuing to circulate at a high speed. However, in France they have another idea. Tired that Beuné’s journey (a town located near Angers, west of the country) was taken as a real highway, the neighbors decided to paint the streets of the municipality. And the results were positive … at least As far as your perception is concerned because they recognized not having data from whether drivers had really reduced speed. Click on the image to go to the original publication More slowly Getting drivers to raise their foot from the accelerator when passing through a town is one of the biggest problems with which a town can fight. Especially if, as in the case of This Italian peopleit is the road that starts in two the municipality. In that case, Acchetico, a town of just over 100 inhabitants, ended up installing a radar that sanctioned 58,000 drivers in 10 days. It was a desperate measure. In Spain, work has also been worked on the secondary roads, although otherwise. In recent years, those painted on the ground that generate the feeling that the lane is narrowed before reaching a town have been popularized. It is exactly the same that is used in the streets of the School Centers although in this case they are at the entrance of some municipalities such as Nava de Roa (Burgos). It is only one of the examples that the DGT has launched in recent years. In northern Madrid, road marks such as implemented in Catalonia where some circles located in the line that divides the two lanes helps the bikers draw the curves safely and remove some gas in their path. It is a pilot test that has also been implemented in other places such as Austria. In the latter case they affirm that the simple road marks of the soil has an immediate effect in the perception of the motorist. With an investment of just 3,000 euros, it was estimated that the percentage of bikers who violated the norm and entered the opposite lane was 44%. Before painting the soil, 77% exceeded their lane. Specifically, the best data was reported from the Tyrol, where accidents had been reduced by 80%. Although the clearest example of recent years in Spain has been implemented by the DGT with a red line on a secondary road in Andalusia. On the A-355 road, which connects the populations of Marbella and Cártama, Traffic has painted a huge red line with the aim of reducing accidents on one of the most dangerous roads in Spain. When the road was created in 2014, a traffic of 7,000 cars was expected, today more than 20,000 vehicles are calculated daily. … Read more

So far Arm only designed chips. Now you will manufacture one for data centers, and goal will be your first big client

by

There is a lot of money invested in data centers. Maybe too much. And that is a juicy cake in which many companies want to enter. One of them is ARM, which throughout its history He had limited himself to designing chips that others then licensed and manufactured. Now they will go further, and AI is the main reason. THE FIRST CHIP ARM. As revealed In Financial TimesARM will reveal his first chip this summer. Until now, Arm had remained outside a career in which Intel, AMD, Nvidia, Qualcomm or Apple have been the protagonists, but now they want to enter that fight. Data centers in the spotlight. SoftBank, which has a majority participation in ARM, has ambitious plans in the data centers segment. It has allied with Openai and other companies for the colossal Stargate projectwhich will make them theoretically invest 500,000 million dollars in data centers in the US. And the company wants ARM to be part of that project with own chips that govern the servers of those data centers. Goal as a great first client. This chip is expected to be a CPU for servers and that it is created so that it can then be customized by companies as a goal. In FT they indicate that in fact the company of Mark Zuckerberg is already the first big client of ARM in this initiative. TSMC could be in charge of the production of chips, according to sources close to the plans. Acquisition of ampere in sight. We speak these days of the alleged advanced negotiations that They could end SoftBank buying ampere. The firm specializes precisely in the use of ARM architecture in multinuk chips Oriented to data centers. Threat to Intel and AMD. These two companies (especially Intel) and architecture X86 have always dominated the segment of servers and data centers. However, chips with ARM architecture have begun to be an interesting option, and the alleged appearance of these Arm’s own chips could further boost their market share. And Varapalo for Qualcomm. Qualcomm socate are references in our mobiles, but the company also takes time Working in chips for servers. In the last months Qualcomm and Ar had maintained a litigation that finally closed a few days agoand it is about to see what is the impact of this ARM project on the Qualcomm roadmap, which apparently He was also in negotiations with goal to provide chips for their data centers.
