Satellite images have revealed an unknown complex in Neom. It is so luxurious that it can only be for a person

by

The last thing we knew about Neom was possibly what was most moving away from the ambitious project that has Saudi Arabia. Apparently, the Futurist City proposal will not be exclusively on luxury hotels and futuristic skyscrapers. There will be much more, among other things, an agreement to become a Pointer space for AI. The latest: such an exclusive and unknown complex that can only be for a person. A luxurious palatial complex. He Neom megaprojectthe ambitious initiative of around 2 billion dollars from Saudi Arabia to transform its economy and position itself as a global reference in technology, innovation and tourism, has once again news this week after the dissemination of satellite images that reveal an unknown architecture: the Construction of a lavish palace On the Red Sea coast. Elon Musk vs Jeff Bezos: The Galaxies War Captured in January by the satellite technology company Maxar Technologies and published in a documentary of the Business Insider mediumthe images show an exclusive complex with private beaches, extensive gardens, a golf course and up to 10 helipuertos. It can only be for a person. As The medium pointsthis palace clearly points to a more than possible residence: that of the heir prince Mohammed Bin Salman. In addition, although from the project no one has talked about this architecture, the satellite plans coincide with the previous data reported by Reuters in 2018when at the dawn of the project the award of the first contracts to build up to five royal palaces in the region was mentioned, approximately 170 kilometers from Tabuk. Neom: a megaproject with light and dark. We have told it several times. Neom is the central pillar of the Mohammed Bin Salman modernization plan, designed to diversify the Saudi economy and reduce its oil dependence. And of all the initiatives, its boldest proposal It’s The Linethat vertical city of 170 kilometers long, conceived as a futuristic model of sustainable urbanization. However, the project has faced financial challengesenvironmental controversies and concerns for human rights (He even has talked about deaths). Originally scheduled to complete in 2030, development has slowed down significantly (even thought that it would be aborted at some point). At present, it is estimated that only a section of 2.5 kilometers called Hidden Marinait could be ready for that date. A prince and his lifestyle. Also counted in the middle that Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is known for his luxurious lifestyle and its expensive property portfolio. Among its most outstanding acquisitions are a Château in southern France valued at 300 million dollars and a 300 million dollars supery, reflecting the level of opulence with which its figure is related. The construction of the Palace in Neom, therefore, seems to fit within this pattern of great personal investments in the middle of a national colossal project. Neom: between ambition and reality. In short, the pharaonic project represents the most ambitious attempt of Saudi Arabia for redefining its economic future and its global image. However, the difficulties in its execution, the Lack of foreign investments and concerns about their environmental and social impact put in Interdicted your viability In the short term. The revelation of the private palace within the megaproject only adds more questions about the true nature of at least, leaves any reasonable doubt: are we facing a step towards that future of the kingdom that is advertised, or a symbol of excesses and megalomania in the middle of a plan of the most uncertain?

We have dedicated six years to process images of a black hole to reach a conclusion: Einstein was right

by

Several years have passed since the Telescope of the Event Horizon (EHT) published the famous first image of a black holetaken in 2017. The photo has yes doquestioned by some researchersbut the EHT last year published a second image of the black hole M87*, taken in 2018. The new photo not only validated the original, but once again corroborates the Einstein’s general relativity theory. The largest radio telescope. To obtain the image of the black hole in the center of the Messier 87 galaxy, we needed to build a radio telescope about 10,000 kilometers in diameter. Since the land has a diameter of 13,000, the EHT took a more reasonable path: Extract data from different receptors, telescopes and radio antennas from all over the world and combine them by interferometry. The EHT produced 250 Petabytes of information in a one -week interval. It took a couple of years to process all the information and publish an image. But first, he added a new telescope to the project (the GLT of Greenland) and took the second image of M87* that saw the light in 2024. Six years processing. The second image of the black hole M87*, taken a year and ten days after the original, in April 2018, took six to process and publish, but it was worth it. On the one hand, proves that 2017’s observations were fine. The Persistence of the size of the central shadow In both images confirms the original estimate of the dimensions of the black hole, dissipating the criticisms about the simulations dependence to calculate this data. On the other, comparing the two images shows that the ring of matter around the black hole is rotating as expected. The brightest part has moved 30 degrees, which is consistent with the models of the hole. We are seeing what Einstein predicted. Located 55 million light years from us, M87* is a supermassive black hole in the center of an elliptical galaxy that manipulates the subject with its magnetic fields and expels the one that does not consume at speeds close to that of light. The image of 2018, like its predecessor of 2017, reflects this tumultuous activity with a bright ring around it. This validates the theory that the diameter of the event horizon, and therefore that of the black hole itself, is intrinsically linked to its mass, framing a central shadow that Albert Einstein’s equations predicted more than a century ago. Why it looks like a donut. That brilliant donut called accretion disc should be very fine, but we get very dispersed and unemployed. Throughout the trip he has made through space, his light has dispersed by the dust in interstellar space, which leads us to see it in this way. Despite the dispersion, the image is clear enough to confirm not only Black hole rotation but also the alignment of its rotational axis with a powerful stream of material (“relativistic jet”) that moves away from M87. The importance of reproducing results. Although it will take six years to arrive, this vindic confirmation the findings of the EHT and is seen as a milestone for global scientific collaboration, in addition to a robust confirmation that we are facing the shadow of a black hole and the matter that orbit it. Future data analysis will help better understand how magnetic fields and plasma flows within the accretion disc interact. In the next decade, we could even have videos of the evolution of M87* in time thanks to the next generation program of the EHT (NGEHT), which promises images of greater resolution and a broader range of frequencies. All thanks to the collaboration of observatories from all over the world. Image | Event horizon telescope In Xataka | A group of astrophysics has knocked down Kerr’s hypothesis.

satellite images show what aim to be their next great aircraft carrier

by

The satellite images of the Shipyard of Dalian, in the province of Liaoning, point to a key advance in China’s naval strategy: the possible construction of their fourth carrier. Known as Type 004, this ship would stand out for integrating an electromagnetic catapult system to launch airplanes and drones, in addition to having a greater displacement than the previous models. It is also speculated with the incorporation of nuclear propulsion, which would mark a significant leap in the operational capacity of the Chinese Navy. As The War Zone points outthe images obtained by Airbus and accessible on Google Earth correspond to last year, although they have recently earned attention. The satellite view suggests that the aircraft carriers continues at an early construction phase, with structures that seem to fit with the catapult system. In addition, models of a J-15 Flanker hunting and a naval helicopter from the Z-8 series have been identified. These types of elements are not accidental: they are usually used in the tests and the development of new aircraft carriers. A project that has been spinning for years Speculation about this aircraft carriers began almost a decade ago and gained strength in 2017, when a porch crane was installed in the Jiangnan shipyard. However, that project did not prosper and the rumors continued to emerge sporadically. It was not until March 2024 when the Admiral and political commissioner of the Chinese Navy, Yuan Huazhi, officially confirmed its existence. He assured that they did not face inconveniences and said that it would soon be announced if the aircraft carrier will have Nuclear propulsion. As we mentioned before, one of the greatest advantages of this aircraft carriers will be its catapult system, which would allow it to be at the level of the American R. Ford in this aspect. This offers key benefits, such as the ability to launch heavier planes. For the Chinese Navy, this means more flight autonomy thanks to a greater fuel load and more weapons capacity. If the nuclear propulsion is confirmed, the ship could operate without geographical restrictions, with a practically unlimited range. The models in Dalian’s shipyard You may ask what kind of aircraft will launch the TyPE 004. For now, there is no official confirmation, but analysts believe they will operate with KJ-600 aircraft, biturbohélice and comparable to the E-2 Hawkeye of the US Navy. These are aircraft of Early Warning and Airborne Controldesigned to provide surveillance, recognition and air space management. Equipped with a long -range radar, they can detect and track both aircraft and enemy vessels at large distances. Although there is no official confirmation, analysts suggest that Type 004 will operate with the furtive hunting J-35, optimized for missions in aircraft carriers and with advanced stealth technology. This would be supported by improved versions of J-15, a versatile hunting adapted to electromagnetic catapults. In addition, the incorporation of unmanned aircraft is expected, expanding their tactical capacities. With this combination, the Chinese Navy would reinforce its air domain in the open sea, integrating manned airplanes and drones in joint operations.

How to create free images with Le Chat, Mistral’s European artificial intelligence

by

Let’s tell you How to create images with artificial intelligence wearing Le chatthe European alternative to chatgpt. Le chat is a chatbot created by Mistral, and like the main American actors in the sector it also allows you to create images. We are going to use screen captures of the Le Chat version, whose address is chat.mistral.ai/chat. However, you will also be able to do the same from the mobile using its official application On iPhone through the App Store and In Android from Google Play. Here, all you should know is that Le chat has the free option to create images very limitedand without paying you will only be able to create one or two per day. If you want to be able to create more images Create images with ia using le chat Creating images with artificial intelligence Le chat of Mistral is as easy as doing with any other. All you have to do is make a written requeststarting with the word Draw …. so that AI knows that you mean you want to generate an image. If you are on the main screen, under the writing field where you put the prompt you can click on a button with several icons. When you put it, you can decide what options you have active. Here, Be sure not to deactivate the image generation optionsince otherwise you will not be able to create them. In any case, what you have to do is ask the AI ​​to draw something concrete. For example, I have used the petition “Draw a cat playing football”. And when you do, in a few seconds the AI ​​will generate this image. Up to the right on it you have A button to download it On your device. Remember that when asking for an image You will be able to specify details and styles. For example, you can describe a little more in depth the elements you want to appear inside, and in styles you can put things like that it generates it as a cartoon. Don’t be afraid of long descriptions of what you want me to draw the AI. Here, remember that she is trained to understand everything you tell her, and the more details you are able to give you the more you will get closer to what you have in mind.

Mobile app, Internet search and free images generation

by

In his attempt to compete with Openai Chatgpt, the European Startup Mistral AI launched in February its chatbot le chat. But, for some reason, it was only available on the web and its functions were limited. That has just changed with its arrival to iOS and Android, as well as novelties to attract competition users. Speed ​​as a flag. In the world of AI chatbots, users have a wide range of options. From the proposal developed by the company led by Sam Altman to Copilot Microsoft, Claude de Anthropic or Deepseek. In Mistral AI they know well, and they wanted to move token so as not to lose positions in this competition. The main trick of the renovated le chat is the performance, which works with “the most performance and lower latency” models. ” As we can see, the company specifically says what a language model is under the hood of its chatbot, but we know that Develop products as Mistral Large, Mistral Small, Mistral Edge and Codestral. This underlying technology is complemented with an experimental characteristic called Flash Answers whose objective is to provide answers in record time. The promise that its speed is better than that of “any other assistant.” It is important to note that we cannot use Flash Answers unlimitedly since it has limits of use for all plans. Tell ‘Hello’ to the search on the web. Le chat is also updated with the possibility of searching on the web, something that most of the alternatives have already incorporated. The knowledge of the models has a temporary limit, so if we want to access updated information we can ask the chatbot to perform an internet search. Sometimes, Le Chat will use this function automatically, but in certain cases we must specify in our order to use the search function. Mistral AI wanted to give this novelty a plus by adding a section called “Fuentes”, which will tell us where the information has come from and will provide us with the original links. Code vision and execution capabilities. Le Chat can also analyze images and documents thanks to the vision capacity of his models. In this case, we can share from a photograph to a PDF document and ask you related questions. The chatbot also includes a code interpreter for programmers. Image generation. There are several models that give life to Le Chat’s functionalities. One of them is Flux Ultra, which will allow us to create quite realistic images. At least that is the promise that the company itself has made, and holds it with a comparative picture of images generated by Grok, Chatgpt and its own chatbot. Memories, Le Chat’s memory. At this time it is not available, but a novelty called “Memories” should arrive soon, which is learning things like our tastes and preferences. It is something like the chatgpt memory, which allows you to know the user to provide better answers over time. Mobile application. The European chatbot, which since its launch has been available only on the web, now has mobile application. You can download it for free On iPhone through the App Store And on Android from Google Play. Cheaper than competition. Le chat has three levels. The free level, as we say, offers access to the “The latest Mistral Models”, Web Search, File Load, Data Analysis, Image Generation and Flash Answers. The disadvantage? There are limits of use that are more generous in paid plans. The PRO level costs 14.99 euros per month and has “unlimited” access to the best performance model and web navigation. It also arrives with “unlimited” messages, an “extended” use of news function, advanced data analysis and image generation. It also offers the possibility of not sharing data with Mistral. There is also a Team level of 24.99 euros per users per month. This is a company -oriented version that offers live journalistic information with AFP news, file loading, advanced data analysis, centralized billing and administration and dedicated technical support. Conversations are not shared with a default Mistral. Images | Mistral ai In Xataka | Amazon lost the AI ​​train, but wants to recover it. The new Alexa with ia will arrive this month to try

Now we have 74 images of exocomets orbiting nearby stars

by

In recent years we have seen images of Supermasive black holes, Stars outside the Milky Way and planetary systems that orbit other solesthe famous exoplanets. Current astronomy allows us to see with a precision until recently unimaginable the environment that surrounds other stars, to the point that we now have 74 images – not exoplanets, but of exocomena. The news. An international astronomer team has published the most detailed images until the date of 74 different exocometa belts: Dust structures and countless icy bodies that orbit other star systems, in the same way as Kuiper’s belt surrounds our solar system. The images They are part of the Reasons surveywhich combines data from the powerful telescopes Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (soul) in Chile and Submillimeter Array (SMA) in Hawaii. The context. The exocometer are frozen bodies of at least one kilometer in diameter. Although they are too small to be observed directly from the earth, the collisions between them release dust and small fragments that form extensive rubble belts, exocometaries belts. It is not a new concept. Astronomers first intuited the presence of exocomets around the Beta Pictoris star in 1984, long before the discovery of the first exoplanet in 1995. Specifically, they detected the spectral firms of evaporated ice passing in front of the star. The details. Reasons images reveal a whole diversity of structures. Some form narrow rings, like our Kuiper belt. Others have multiple rings or are more elongated, suggesting that they have been molded by the severity of unknown exoplanets. The discs have ages ranging from 20 million to 2,000 million years, which covers from systems in the protoplanetary phase to mature systems. The astrophysicist Carlos del Burgo, from the University of La Laguna, highlights that this is “the biggest sample to date.” An opportunity to study them. Located in the outer regions of its systems (more than 10 astronomical units), these rings are at extremely low temperatures (between -250 ° C and -150 ° C), which allows volatile compounds such as water to remain frozen . The researcher Isabel Rebellido, of the European Space Astronomy Center, points out “the importance of being able to perform statistical analysis of these discs for the first time.” Especially its evolution. With the passage of time, the discs seem to lose mass and surface area. And those closest to their stars dissipate more quickly due to the impact of star radiation.

Now you can send you voice messages and images

by

At the end of last year, before Deepseek It appeared on the scene and provoked an earthquake in the artificial intelligence sector, Openai surprised us With an interesting movement: we could keep a number on our agenda and talk with Chatgpt directly from WhatsApp. The main advantage was to access the chatbot without installing its application. However, there were also some important limitations. By using chatgpt in WhatsApp, we lost key functions such as voice entry and the ability to analyze images, two tools that make them usually very practical. OpenAI Chatgpt Power in WhatsApp: Voice Notes and Images Now, Openai has taken another step. If you have the number +1 (800) 242-8478 Saved on your agenda, you can now send voice notes to Chatgpt, as if it were any other contact. This means that, instead of writing, you can simply talk to you and receive an answer in text without leaving the messaging app. But there is more. Another of the great novelties is that Chatgpt in WhatsApp now has vision capabilities. If you send you a photo, you can analyze it and interpret what you see. Do you want to know what is in an image? Recognize an object? Locate the place where a photograph was taken? All this is already possible. Despite these improvements, the chatbot in WhatsApp still has some limitations. For example, we still can’t forward that kilometer audio To summarize it. It is time to keep listening to them. Nor can you seek information on the Internet in real time, which limits its usefulness in consultations on recent topics. For those who seek the most complete experience, the official chatgpt application remains the best option. Not only does it maintain all the functions mentioned, but it also allows internet access and the use of advanced voice mode with The Camera Live functionwhich allows you to see the world real time.

After setting upside down the AI ​​industry, Depseek launches its first model that understands and creates images: Janus Pro

by

In full hangover for its model R1Deepseek has just launched Janus Pro 7ban AI model to generate images from text and understand other images that are introduced. And yes, it is also open source, although with An asterisk similar to the flame. Why is it important. Until now, multimodal models have had to juggle between understanding and generation of images, sacrificing efficiency or performance. Janus Pro 7B resolves this dilemma with a new proposal: unifies the understanding and generation of images in a single architecture. Innovation. The model introduces a “double track” system for visual processing: Separate the coding paths to understand and generate images. It maintains a single transformer to process all the information. Use Siglip-l as visual encoder for 384×384 pixels. Janus Pro comparative in the face of your predecessor for several applications. Image: Deepseek. This resolution is its main inconvenience, it seems much more oriented to already experience uses of little ambition than to the applications that we can assume other proposals such as Midjourney either Freepikwhich usually start from 1024×1024 pixels. However, Janus Pro is not a generator of images to use, but a multimodal model with several capacities. Of course, this resolution allows an optimal balance between quality and processing speed … for uses that are conducted with it. Between the lines. Janus Pro 7B’s architecture is especially relevant for its efficiency: Compact size of 7,000 million (“7b”) of parameters. Higher performance to larger specific models. Open source under MIT license for the repository, although the model itself requires accepting the Deepseek license. The MIT license It allows anyone to use, modify and distribute the code freely, even for commercial purposes, provided that the original copyright notice is maintained. It is one of the most permissive licenses that exist. The Deepseek licenseon the other hand, it is free and allows commercial uses, but includes specific ethical restrictions, such as the prohibition of military use or the generation of misinformation. In perspective. Janus Pro 7B is not only another multimodal model, but a new paradigm in the architecture of IAS that can see and create. Its unified but decentralized approach may well end up influencing future developments. The model is built on Deepseek-Llm-7b-Basethe base language model of the Chinese startup, announced in August 2024. of it inherits its language processing capabilities while adding advanced visual abilities. Its 16X subsample system for the generation of images allows you to maintain efficiency without compromising quality.

“2000 Meters to Andriivka”: Mstyslav Chernov re -impacts with his images of the Ukraine War

by

Park City, Utah – The first 10 minutes of “2000 meters to Andriivka” have already justified having moved to the Utah mountains to attend the Sunday Film Festival. If I didn’t watch any other good movie in the next few days, I would still take the trip. This powerful is the new journalist and filmmaker’s documentary Mstyslav Chernovwinner of the Oscar two years ago for “20 days in Mariupol”. If this focused on how civilians suffered the first brutal attack of the Russian invasion, the new film leads us to the activity of the soldiers – mostly volunteers – in the first line of the front. With images taken with Gopro cameras in the soldiers’ helme Brutal of a war in the middle of Europe that is fought in trenches and almost melee as if it were a contest 100 years ago. For months, years already, to gain or go back ridiculous distances in which the bodies and ruins are stacked. Mstyslav Chernov, director of “2000 Meters to Andriivka”.Credit: Sundance Film Festival | Courtesy With his work, Chernov humanizes conflict without moralisms or doctrines. An exceptional work that will speak throughout the year. More premieres on the first day of Sundace The Ugly Stepsister This debut feature film of the Nordic director Emilie Blichfeldt offers a dark, comic and very “gore” reinterpretation of the classic Cinderella story. The film focuses on Elvira, one of Cinderella’s stepsisters, who pushed by her mother takes extreme measures in her desperate search to become more desirable. This twisted narrative addresses issues such as beauty, self -injuries, value and social pressures, presenting a visually shocking and disturbing experience. Marlee Matllin: Not Alone Anymore The deeply documentary personal “Marlee Matllin: Not Alone Anymore” premiered with the presence of Marlee Matllin herself, deaf actress who is still the youngest winner of the Oscar for Best Actress, a prize she received in 1987 for “Children of a Leser God ”, when I was only 21 years old. During the question and answers session, Matllin shared his thoughts: “I knew it was the time for (Shoshannah Stern, director of the tape) to show the world what I have happened. I waited, and my four children, who are now adults, was a good time to show them what Mom has spent all her life. So I’m glad they are here. I’m glad they are here to see it. ” Jimpa John Lithgow, Aud Mason-Hyde and Olivia Colman.Credit: George Pimentel for candy film festival | Shuttersock The premiere with more stars on the first day was “Jimpa”, which brought together a cast that includes Olivia Colman, John Lithgow, Aud Mason-Hyde, Daniel Henshall and Eamon Farren, who accompanied the director Sophie Hyde in the “line of line of Press ”, as the red carpets prior to a premiere is called in Swimo. The cast also participated in a lively question and answers session after the projection. Twinless The emotional Twinless premiere caused enthusiastic cheers of the public, especially during the question and answers session, where the cast shared sincere reflections. The director and member of the cast James Sweeney, along with Dylan O’Brien, Aisling Franciosi and Lauren Graham, participated in the press carpet and answered questions from the public. Dylan O’Brien reflected on his collaboration with Sweeney: “Meeting James was like the final seal, watching his first movie and realizing that he is a complete filmmaker. We have been on this trip together for five years, so it is a very special moment to see him come to light in this way ”. Sly Lives! (Aka The Burden of Black Genius) Oscar Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson’s musician and director premiered his latest biographical documentary, “Sly Lives!” The projection, which focuses on the life of the legendary musician Sly Stone, received an ovation of an enthusiastic audience. Questlove was accompanied by members of Sly’s family, including Ninth Carmel, Phunne and Sylvester Stewart Jr., as well as producer Joseph Patel.
