The AI ​​race is no longer about who has the most powerful model. Who launches the easiest and safest OpenClaw

by

2026 began with an earthquake in the world of AI, and it did not come from any of the big technology companies, but from an unknown programmer and his open source project OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot and Moltbot). Not even two months have passed and we can say that the boom of this AI agent is reconfiguring the AI ​​career, causing more and more companies to jump on the bandwagon. The last one was Perplexity. Personal Computer. a month ago, Perplexity announced Computerwhich was a cloud-based tool capable of orchestrating agents using various models. The next step is Personal Computeryour own OpenClaw. can be left running on a Mac Mini and control it from another device, such as a mobile phone, exactly the same as OpenClaw, but with a simpler interface that does not require technical knowledge. Further user-friendly. Another key aspect is that they focus on security, one of the delicate points of OpenClaw. Perplexity claims that with Personal Computer, “Every sensitive action requires your approval. Every action is logged. There’s an off switch.” At the moment Personal Computer is not available yet, but if you want to try it before anyone else you can sign up for the waiting list. NVIDIA NemoClaw. Which is the most valuable company in the world has taken good note of the success of OpenClaw and a couple of days ago they announced that they will launch their own open source platform for enterprise AI agents, they will call it NemoClaw. This announcement is also important because it places NVIDIA in a position of direct competition against companies like Anthropic, OpenAI or Perplexity. This changes its position from a hardware supplier to a software competitor. and OpenAI…The project had not even been three months old when OpenAI, not only bought it, but also hired its creator Peter Steinberger. It was not the only one who bid to achieve the viral success of the moment, Meta also tried, but OpenAI was the one that won the bid. Stenberger said the project would continue to remain “open and independent.” This case is a good example of two things: how far a person can go with a good AI idea and how difficult, if not impossible, it is to compete in an ecosystem in which the competition is some of the largest and most valuable companies in the world. David against Goliath. The agentic AI race. We spent a good part of 2025 watching AI agents take their first steps, many times with quite mediocre results. It was clear that agentic AI was getting a lot betterbut I don’t think anyone expected that the first viral hit would be carried out by an independent and open source project. OpenClaw not only succeeded, it has launched a new race in AI, one that seeks the ultimate custom AI agents. OpenClaw has two barriers to entry, on the one hand requiring certain technical knowledge and on the other security. It is a very powerful agent, but sometimes unpredictable. Hence, Perplexity is appealing precisely to improve these two aspects. We’ll see who will be next.

Lockheed has created an underwater drone that clings to ships like a lamprey. And when released, it launches torpedoes

by

The lamprey is a fish that has survived 360 million years thanks to a simple strategy: sticking to its prey to suck its blood. Lockheed Martin has taken that idea literally to name its new weapon, and the analogy is quite literal. The new thing from Lockheed is called Lamprey Multi-Mission Autonomous Undersea Vehicle (MMAUV). It is an underwater drone just over 7 meters long, capable of traveling attached to an allied ship or submarine with a lamprey-like system. While attached to the host ship, it can recharge its batteries using its built-in hydrogen generator. Stealth or attack The Lamprey MMAUV does practically everything, although it is primarily designed for covert missions. It can remain on the seabed, monitoring the enemy without being detected thanks to its acoustic signature profile. practically invisible when sonar. When the time comes to act, the Lamprey can do almost anything: it deploys decoys to confuse the opponent, it is equipped with anti-submarine torpedoes and, if it rises to the surface, it can also launch aerial drones. What makes the Lamprey especially striking is that it concentrates in a single system capabilities that until now were distributed across different platforms: surveillance, anti-submarine warfare, deception, attack and aerial reconnaissance. It can operate in a swarm coordinating with other unmanned systems. And it can do so autonomously, making decisions without direct human intervention. Autonomous submarines The Lamprey will not be the United States’ first unmanned underwater vehicle. There are antecedents like Boeing Orca submarinewith the difference that it cost eight years and 885 million dollars to develop it, all so that today it is not clear if it will end up becoming a program in the US Navy. The Lamprey has been funded internally, which Lockheed vice president Paul Lemmo said has allowed them to “iterate at lightning speed and deliver to the Navy a truly multi-purpose weapon that detects, disrupts, deceives and attacks on its own.” Furthermore, he presumes that Its cost is significantly lower than that of other manned platforms. But the United States is not the only power exploring unmanned vehicles. China has been developing its own fleet of underwater drones for some time and at the military parade in September 2025 presented the AJX002an unmanned underwater vehicle between 18 and 20 meters capable of operating autonomously, laying mines and networking with other attack systems.

Paramount launches hostile takeover bid to acquire Warner

by

The punch on the table that Netflix gave last Friday announcing its purchase of Warner Bros. left the film industry shaking. The action was so aggressive that we spent the weekend wondering whether the regulatory systems would allow a purchase that brought Netflix very close to a monopoly. What was not so predictable was that Paramount, another of the actors involved in the bidding in recent weeks, would launch a hostile takeover to try to take over Warner even more aggressively. What point are we at? Netflix surprised on Friday with the announcement of the purchase of Warner Bros. for a value of 72,000 million dollars. Only seventy-two hours later Paramount counterattacked by launching an even more ambitious takeover bid, valued at $108.4 billion. The maneuver consists of appealing directly to Warner shareholders by bypassing the board of directors, giving rise to one of the most aggressive corporate confrontations that the entertainment industry has seen in years, and which some describe as “a bidding war worthy of Succession“. What is at stake. Paramount’s strategy seeks to snatch Netflix’s control of one of the most emblematic studies of cinema history, owner of franchises such as DC superheroes, Harry Potter, Looney Tunes, the entire HBO television history, including ‘Game of Thrones’, and a film and historical archive of incalculable value. The offer from David Ellison, CEO of Paramount, aims to $30 per share in cashsurpassing the $27.75 offered by Netflix. Three months of offers. Monday’s hostile bid does not come out of nowhere, but rather as the culmination of three months of efforts by Paramount. David Ellison began his pursuit of Warner Bros. Discovery in September, when he presented a first proposal of $19 per share that was quickly rejected by the board of directors chaired by David Zaslav. Far from being discouraged, the CEO of Paramount progressively escalated its offers: $22 on September 30, $23.50 on October 19, and $26.50 on December 1. In total, Paramount submitted six formal proposals in just twelve weeks, all of them rejected or ignored by Warner. The breaking point came when Ellison raised his offer to $30 per share on December 4, a proposal that according to his own statements never received a response. “I sent a text message to Zaslav telling him that the $30 was not our final offer,” Ellison revealed.suggesting he was willing to bid even higher. Flawed process. During a conference call with investors on Monday, Paramount executives publicly accused Warner of “not meaningfully engaging” with any of their proposals, denouncing what they considered a “flawed” auction process that favored Netflix from the beginning. Faced with this systematic blockade, Ellison has ended up opting for the most confrontational route: appealing directly to shareholders, bypassing the board that had repeatedly rejected his offers. How they differ. The two proposals on the table to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery differ in their structure and scope. That of Netflix contemplates the acquisition of the Warner Bros. film studios and the HBO Max streaming platform, leaving out the entire cable television business, which includes assets such as CNN, TNT and TBS. These traditional chains are expected to split in the third quarter of 2026. Since then, the estimated time to close the operation ranges between 12 and 18 months. By contrast, Paramount’s proposal takes an entirely different approach: $30 per share, all in cash. Ellison, for his part, wants to buy Warner Bros. Discovery outright. Paramount argues that this comprehensive approach provides $18 billion in immediate liquidity for shareholders more than Netflix’s mixed structure ($23.25 in cash and $4.50 in Netflix shares). Paramount promises to close the transaction in 12 months, shortening the timeline. Other takeover bids. The current battle between Paramount and Netflix over Warner Bros. Discovery is not an isolated phenomenon. There are precedents in February 2004, when Comcast launched $54 billion hostile takeover bid about The Walt Disney Company. Brian Roberts, CEO of Comcast, detected an opportunity in the midst of the internal crisis that Disney was going through under the leadership of Michael Eisner, whose management had generated growing discontent. Comcast wanted to take control of ESPN. The operation did not work because the Disney board closed ranks so as not to lose its independence. It was precisely Disney and Comcast who found themselves in a wild bidding war to take over 21st Century Fox in 2018. What started as an initial offer from Disney of $52.4 billion in stock escalated quickly: Comcast counterattacked with $65 billion all in cash. Disney raised its offer to 71.3 billion and Comcast ended up abandoning the bid. Both precedents illustrate recurring patterns: detecting weaknesses in rival companies, escalating offers and using political connections to influence regulatory processes, as we will see below. The political factor. What distinguishes this operation from any precedent in Hollywood history is the geopolitical dimension and the direct connection to the White House. Regulatory documents filed Monday with the SEC reveal a financing structure that has generated controversy: the Paramount offer is supported by Affinity Partnersthe private investment firm that directed by Jared Kushnerson-in-law of President Donald Trump. Three Middle Eastern sovereign funds participate alongside Kushner: the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, the sovereign fund of Abu Dhabi and the Qatar Investment Authority. These investors were not mentioned in Paramount’s initial press release, being relegated to mandatory regulatory filings. According to official documents, all of these partners have agreed to expressly renounce any corporate governance rights, including the possibility of appointing directors or influencing strategic decisions. This resignation is not accidental: seeks to avoid the gaze of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), the government body that examines foreign investments for reasons of national security. Enter Kushner. Kushner’s presence complicates everything. Since leaving the White House after Trump’s first term, Affinity Partners has raised approximately $3 billion, including a $2 billion direct investment from the Saudi fund. Kushner cultivated an especially close relationship with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman during his time as a presidential … Read more

Google launches its AI mode in Spain and with it, a new way of searching on the web: this is how you can activate it

by

Google has begun to roll out its AI Mode in Spain, an update that transforms the traditional way of searching for information on the Internet. Once we have access to this mode, we can make all types of queries through natural language and the search engine will offer us complex and elaborate answers on any topic through its AI. The operation is similar to the summaries that Google already offers when we make a query, only this mode transfers that entire experience to your search engine. We tell you all the details. What exactly is AI Mode. This is the most advanced search experience Google has launched to date, powered by its Gemini models. Just like explains the company in its press release, appears as a new button on the results page and in the apps for Android and iOS. Unlike traditional search that displays a list of links, AI Mode generates direct and detailed answers to queries, although for now it remains optional, as the user must press the button to activate it. To test it, you can use this linkalthough you may not have it enabled yet and may have to wait a while. Why the way you search changes. According to Google, this tool is designed for exploratory questions without a single, direct answer. In the United States, where it was launched in March (and by then we were able to try it), Google claims that users ask questions two or three times longer than in conventional searches. The company gives the example of doing the following search: “I want to understand the different methods of brewing coffee. Make a table comparing the differences in flavor, ease of use, and equipment needed.” Once the answer is obtained, we can continue the conversation, such as: “What is the ideal grain thickness for each method?” In this way, the system maintains the context of the conversation and allows you to delve deeper as you go. The operation is very similar to what many AI models already offer, such as ChatGPT internet search or dedicated AI search engines like Perplexity. This is the answer to all those tools of a Google that refuses to lose the leadership of what it was known for. How it works inside. As the company claims, AI Mode uses a query decomposition technique: it divides the question into several subtopics and launches multiple simultaneous searches on the web. This, according to Google, allows you to access more specialized and relevant content than with a traditional search. The results are presented with small buttons at the end of each paragraph that link to the web pages used to generate the answer. In our tests a few months ago we were already able explore in detail the operation of this system, a search mode that was inevitable to see given the proliferation of more and more tools with generative AI technology. The results were quite promising and the system offered a great level of richness in its responses. AI Mode is an instant way to get complex answers while the system crawls the entire web to deliver them to you. Multimodality as an advantage. One of the notable features is that it supports different input formats: text, voice and images. Users can, for example, take a photo of a menu with their mobile phone and ask about anything, or use the microphone for voice queries. This versatility is typical of models such as Geminisince from its dedicated app we can also opt for this type of responses through all types of inputs. The real novelty here is that the experience that Gemini gives us is transferred to Google’s main website, something that represents how committed the company is to offering AI experiences to its users. The global deployment. The launch includes 36 new languages, including Spanish, and nearly 50 new countries and territories, reaching more than 200 in total. Its arrival in Europe is especially significant, since Regulation around AI is much stricter than in the United States. The good news is that the service is free and will be progressively activated for all Spanish users in the coming days. An inevitable debate. This launch is not without controversy. Some media outlets in countries where it is already available have reported traffic drops of between 20% and 60%. The falls too have been important even with the arrival of Google’s AI summaries. And if the AI ​​directly answers the user’s question, why visit the original website? Obviously, from Xataka we will tell you that nothing has more value than what is processed, thought and written by a human. However, Google argues that clicks from AI Mode are of higher quality because “users then spend more time on the pages they visit”, although the truth is that it is not a very hopeful answer for media that depend on a certain volume of visits to generate income. The company has also not yet proposed financial compensation for the pages it uses as a source of its responses. What’s coming now? Google assures that it will continue improving the system, recognizing that “we will not always get it right” as it is an AI product in its initial phase. Now we just need to know the reaction of the global public and know if this really is the definitive way to search on the web. We will also be aware of the impact this has on traffic, which has already left its mark since its initial test in March.

As of today, ATMs are also a revolution thing. Fintech launches its first physical network, and starts with Spain

by

Which It started as a way to send and spend money Without commissions, a bank has ended up looking more and more. Revolutionwhich ten years ago was born in the United Kingdom as an app designed to simplify finances, it has become One of the most valuable Fintech in the sector. And his last play makes it clear: his own ATMs. Yes, ATMs. An idea that would have been difficult to fit in its early years, when it was unmarked from the traditional. But now it is a reality. The former will arrive in Spain, and not anywhere: the debut will be in the Spring Sound from Barcelonawhich starts today and extends until June 8. Spain, Revolution’s first physical laboratory. The company has chosen Spain to release its first physical product: a network of ATMs developed entirely in its Techhub in Barcelona. According to Revolution, the initial phase includes 50 terminals between Madrid and Barcelona, ​​which will be expanded until reaching 200 throughout the country. The former will be located at large points such as Avinguda Diagonal or Toledo Street, and can be located from the app by an interactive map. Barcelona’s choice is not accidental. The city not only houses one of the strategic development centers of the company, but also represents, according to the company itself, a key piece in its European expansion map. In fact, Revolution plans to take this network to other countries such as Germany, Italy or Portugal from 2026. Happy ATMs for a digital customer. The new ATMs do not look like the usual. They are designed with a modern interface, touch navigation, compatibility with contactless payments and multilingual support. They also offer functions designed to reduce friction: withdrawals without additional commissions for Revolution clients and immediate delivery of physical cards. Free withdrawals will be available both nationally and internationally and intra -Europe. For non -customers, the service will also be available “with a competitive commission.” In addition, Revolution plans to incorporate in the future the dynamic conversion option of currency (DCC), which will allow you to choose between the exchange rate of the emitter bank or that of Revolution at the time of withdrawal. And he will not remain in retired. The company also plans to enable cash deposits in later phases, thus expanding the range of accessible services from these physical points. The physical step of a 100 % digital experience. In the words of Manjot Bhati, Operating Partner of Revolution, “to launch our own ATMs network a decisive step in our mission of offering a truly global financial experience and without friction.” As we can see, with this movement, Fintech seeks to expand its footprint beyond the app. It is not a minor change. Revolut was born as a 100 % digital actor, without physical offices or windows. His commitment to their own ATMs suggests a new stage: one in which the physical does not contradict digital, but complements it. A stage where the cashier is no longer just an cash machine. We will have to see if this movement translates into a new success. Images | Aleksandrs Karevs In Xataka | Revolution is not just a threat to traditional banks. Now it is also for Teleoperators

Claude Opus 4 launches and presents it as the best programming model in the world

by

After Google will display all its artillery in artificial intelligenceAnthropic did not want to be left behind. The company founded by Dario Amodei has moved tab strongly: has presented Claude Opus 4 and Claude Sonnet 4two new models with which he aspires to leave his mark on the race for AI. The announcement star is Claude Opus 4, the most advanced model Anthropic has developed so far. And they do not walk with Rodeos: they assure that it is “the best programming model in the world. An ambitious statement that, as always, will have to be tested. But the first data places it very well positioned in front of its main rivals. In the benchmark Swe-Bench Verified, which evaluates real software engineering tasks, Opus 4 gets 72.5 % in standard conditions and reaches 79.4 % if the Parallel processing. It is a performance that leaves it above models such as GPT-4.1 (54.6 %), O3 (69.1 %) or the recent Gemini 2.5 Pro of Google (63.2 %). However, in other more demanding evidence in multimodal reasoning, such as GPQA Diamond or MMMU, focused on university level questions and complex scenarios that combine text and image, Opus 4 fails to overcome O3, which continues to lead in that field. A model with resistance and autonomy But beyond the numbers, what Anthropic wants to highlight is the resistance and autonomy of this model. Claude Opus 4 is capable of maintaining long work sessions and executing thousands of steps continuously. From the company they explain that this makes it an ideal basis for AI agents More sophisticated: systems that make decisions, complete tasks on their own and do not need constant human supervision. In parallel arrives Claude Sonnet 4, an evolution of the model that Anthropic launched in February. It is not intended to compete with Power Opus, but it offers a very balanced proposal between performance and efficiency. In coding it also makes an important leap with respect to its previous version: it goes from 62.3 % to 72.7 % in Swe-Bench Verified, and improves in reasoning tasks, instructions monitoring and general precision. Both models arrive with interesting news. For example, they can now alternate between reasoning and use of tools Within the same process, which allows more complete answers. They have also improved in reliability. According to Anthropic, they are 65 % less likely to take shortcuts or make serious mistakes than Sonnet 3.7.
