by

The first generation of The Ray-Ban Meta They had already shown that glasses could go far beyond aesthetics. Now, goal updates your proposal with the Ray-Ban Second generation target, that arrive with key improvements in such relevant aspects as autonomy, image quality or new colors for their range. With these improvements, Meta seeks to strengthen the position of your market glasses. According to the data of the Counterpoint consultancy published by Wiredthe Ray-Ban Meta represented more than 60% of the world market in its category.

A direct evolution of the Meta Ray (Gen 1) Goal and Ray-Ban maintain the same idea that made the first version of the Ray-Ban Meta into a success: glasses with the iconic design of the Ray-Ban Wayfarer and multimedia and connectivity functions. In that aspect, goal has remained conservative and has not altered its formula, so there are no design differences between the first generation and the second. However, the finish line (Gen 2) improve that bet in key sections. The most important: its battery. The new version Duplicate your autonomy and reach up to eight hours of use. The Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) manage to load 50% of their battery in 20 minutes and allow a total autonomy of up to 48 hours thanks to the additional loads provided by their case. Your camera 12 megapixel ultrapanoramic It also adds to the updates and is now able to record 3K video with up to 60 fps and HDR, which is a qualitative leap in terms of image quality from the 1080p of the previous model, and allows videos to be taken in Slow Motion (slow camera) and Hyperlapse (fast camera). Like the previous model, the glasses of the glasses integrate open speakers that allow to listen to music or attend calls without isolation from the environment.

Iconic style and better integration with AI As was the case with the first model, the new glasses do not seem like a technological device, but a lifetime. The new options catalog includes More than 27 combinations of shapes, colors and lenses, from the classic wayfarer to more current proposals such as Skyler or Headliner. The second generation incorporates new limited editions in striking tones such as Cosmic Blue, Mystic Violet or Asteroid Gray, designed for those who seek an extra customization and can combine with graduated crystals and transition lenses, which are darkened upon receiving sunlight. The integration of artificial intelligence is another of the buzas of this renewal. The camera and microphones allow to capture photos and videos with a simple voice command, without the need to get the mobile from the pocket or touch the staple button. Among its most useful functions, the Real -time translationwhich is now expanded to six languages, including German and Portuguese.

Meta messaging application does not work correctly

by

It is not your connection, neither does your computer. WhatsApp is experiencing problems This Wednesday night, and everything indicates that the failure is concentrated in its web version. When trying to access Web.whatsapp.comthe page loads partially, but the chats do not show themselves. Only the application logo accompanied by the message “Extreme to end” appears. For practical purposes, the service is blocked for those who depend on the desktop customer. The fall has been reflected in Downdectorthe platform that monitors the status of online services. The first user reports They began to register at 9:00 p.m.and after 23:00 they were already counted for hundreds. At this time, goal has not offered any official explanation about what happened. His profiles in X and Threads They do not contain messages that clarify the failure. The origin of the problem is not clear, and that leave several hypotheses open. In cases like this, the causes can range from failures on the finish lines to interruptions in one of their infrastructure suppliers, or even specific incidents in network operators that hinder the connection between the web client and the company’s servers. For now, the only thing confirmed is that the mobile app, both in Android and in iOS, continues to function normally. Everything indicates that it is an isolated interruption that affects only the WhatsApp web version.

A Netscape decision in the 90s explains why Google and Meta grow up with each technological revolution

by

In 1995, engineers of Netscape They faced a problem during a development night: how to allow websites to execute code without being able to steal user data? Thirty years later, its solution, the ‘Same-Origin Policy‘(Policy of the same origin), has become the invisible architecture that governs all the Internet. Why is it important. Each website became an isolated universe, unable to communicate with others. That night decision explains why we can barely escape the Apple ecosystem, why our data live trapped in silos and why each technological revolution makes the usual giants more powerful. The context. Alex Komoroske, former strategy director in Stripe and former director of Google for 13 years, He has identified what he calls the “iron triangle” of modern software. System designers can only combine two of these three elements: Sensitive data. Internet access. And non -reliable code. The logic is simple: if you allow unknown code to access personal data and have Internet connection, you can steal everything and send it anywhere. The solution was the total isolation. Each application became a fortress where your Instagram data cannot talk to Uber’s, your Apple photos cannot be processed by Google tools, and each service begins knowing zero about you. In detail. Komoroske Talk about this phenomenon With the water metaphor going down a mountain. Each obstacle does not stop the flow, redirects it where there is less resistance. Over time, channels are formed that attract more water to become increasingly large rivers. Planning a trip illustrates this mechanism: Flights in the mail. Hotel in another app. Restaurants in Google Docs. Calendar in a different tool. The constant friction of copying, pasteing and reformating leads to grant access to a single service that already knows all your context. Without friction, everything works perfect. When you share the trip, you use the tool that already has all the information. The threat. The AI promises to be different, but is inheriting the same physics. The LLMS They can create almost free software – a developer with AI can build in hours what it took weeks – allowing infinitely personalized tools. But this “infinite software” distributed through traditional stores does not solve our problems: it amplifies them. More applications mean more silos, more places where your data is trapped. The AI needs context to be useful, but our current security model means that sharing context is a commitment of all or nothing. Yes, but. The technical pieces to transcend this paradigm already exist. Modern Intel, AMD and ARM chips include “safe enclaves“, encrypted and protected memory regions of anyone, including cloud administrators. AI brings us a unique opportunity, because it makes the current limitation evident. The technical pieces already exist and it is the first time in thirty years that we can transcend this policy. While nothing changes, the concentration of power will continue to reinforce.

The Meta Ray-Ban made the desirable smart glasses. Xiaomi wants to make them essential

by

They were not the first, of the finish or industry, but we can agree that the Ray-Ban Meta They are being the first real commercial success of smart glasses. An iconic design, well -solved useful functions and a reasonable price. Goal understood that the trick was not to curl the curl, but in Make technology discreetly integrate into a daily productand later, when he could include goal AI, that the AI ​​was invisible while we are looking for information or captured moments. It worked. Xiaomi’s replica, who just launched his Ai Glasses In its own way (between a vacuum and a car), it is very different. Goal he saw a premium gadget for creators and Early Adopters. Also For those who go from readyWhat are we going to do. Xiaomi has focused its glasses in another way: See in them the control center of your digital life. In the presentation they showed the classic comparative with the Ray-Ban Meta as a rival to beat, but not only compete against other glasses, they also compete with your smartphone as the main device. The difference is in the ecosystem. The finish lines are great to take photos and videos from our point of view, or to use as headphones without it seems to do it. Also to consult Goal AI. But there ends its story. Xiaomi glasses promise other things. From controlling your air conditioning to start your electric car, manage video calls or translate conversations in real time (someday). All from the same device you wear. The Ray-Ban Meta We loved from minute 1 with them in the headbut Here we see the difference between creating a good product and creating a platform. Xiaomi is committed to something more risky: convince you that glasses can replace much of what you do with the mobile. If the bet goes well and the product works, Xiaomi will have created something bigger than good smart glasses. You will have created the first glasses that become really indispensable for its users. As much as the mobile today. Outstanding image | Xiaomi In Xataka | The Xiaomi electric SUV is already priced in China. Yu7 is a direct dart to Tesla Model and

There is already a detainee for using the Meta Ray-Ban to record without consent. Recorded hundreds of women in Barcelona without finding out

by

A young man has been arrested in Barcelona After recording hundreds of women with smart glasses without their knowledge. What he did with those recordings: use them in their “seduction” courses that sold for 3,000 euros. Why is it important. It is the first known case in Spain where Ray-Ban Meta They are used to commit crimes against intimacy. The victims did not know that a camera that they did not detect recorded conversations about personal information that later disseminated and monetized. The facts. The detainee approached foreign tourists in Barcelona, ​​held apparently casual conversations and recorded them with glasses that had an integrated camera. Without noticing it, and in fact hiding it. The videos were later published in Tiktok and Instagram as a claim for their “seduction techniques” courses. In figures: 329 videos analyzed by the police. 239 Conversations with intimate data of women. 700,000 visualizations reached the video of the complainant. 3,000 euros cost the full course (plus 45 euros per month of subscription) The technical problem. The Ray-Ban Meta (329 euros) emit a white light when recording, but it is easy to hide them with small tricks. The majority of victims did not detect being recorded, according to police investigation. Smart glasses pose a privacy dilemma that we had not had to face so far, although it already anticipated a decade ago with The Google Glass opening the way. Ray-Ban Meta are much more concealed. Let’s not talk compared to a mobile. Yes, but. Goal designed a safeguard: the indicator light. The problem arises when malicious users deliberately avoid them to record without consent and then make malicious use, or at least to monetize or spread them. Goal is preparing more AI functions for these glasses that will identify places or people in real time. Some users have achieved it on their own. This arrest promises to be the first of many conflicts that are yet to come between body technology and privacy.

What is it, what is it for and what functions the new Meta Videos editor offers

by

Let’s explain WHAT IS AND HOW EDITS WORKSthe new Instagram application. Once again, it is the classic finish movement by launching its own version of a successful application, and in this case it is its alternative of the Capcut editor. We are going to start the article explaining what this application is, so that you understand where it comes from and what it is for. Then we are going to tell you What can you do with itreviewing its main options and their functions. What is Instagram edits Edits is A video editing application created by Meta for Instagram. It is an app adapted to your mobile that will allow you to make several types of compositions, aimed at creating Reels in a more professional way. Being clear, Edits is like Capcut for Tiktokbut an own version made for Instagram reels. We could say that it is a copy, just as Instagram copied the Tiktok reels or their Snapchat stories, bringing what was working on other social networks to his. Instagram has optimized edits so that The videos uploaded from this app have the highest quality. This means that there will be a difference between creating your videos using this tool and not doing so. Edits is aimed and oriented to content creatorssince it also integrates a statistics panel.

To do this, on the main screen you have a + button that serves to create a new edition. Then you just have to load the photo or video you want from your gallery and ready, you can start. When editing the videos, above you have a visualization, and downstream. In them, You can add other elementsas audios of the sources you want or images through the chamber or the gallery.

When this process ends, Edits will save your creation in the photo gallery and videos of your mobile, and will show you options to share it directly on Instagram or Facebook. Edits also have an option to See the creations of other usersas if navigating the Instagram reels themselves. The difference is that all the creations you see have been created with the app, and you will have options such as saving it, adding it as an adhesive note or using the audio for your creation. There is a section of ideas Where you can add adhesive notes with things that happen to you. You can also create content collections and see them, or see the reels and elements that you have seen in the app and saved. Another of your options is to record videos directly from the app. Thus, you will have several recording options that will not depend on the native photos of photos you have on the mobile. And finally, you have A statistics sectionwhere you can see the scope and data of all the reels of your Instagram account, even those that you have not edited or uploaded using this application.

The European Commission fine to Apple and Meta with 500 and 200 million euros. They are condemned to make changes, want or not

by

The European Commission has imposed a fine to Apple and goal worth 500 and 200 million eurosrespectively. According to the authority, both companies have breached the Digital Markets Law (DMA). Both amounts reflect both the severity and the duration of the breach of the law. Apple’s case. The European Commission has determined that the company has breached its obligation not to prevent the redirection of users towards offers and purchases outside App Store. Determining a amount of 500 million euros for its sanction. All developers who distribute their apps through this store must be able to inform users about alternative offers outside it. Due to restrictions imposed by Apple, according to the commission, developers cannot benefit from the advantages offered by alternative distribution channels to App Store. Also, consumers cannot access different offers outside those offered in the store itself. The goal case. For the Zuckerberg platform, Europe determines that the obligation to offer consumers the option of using advertising service that uses less personal data is breached. Specifically, it refers to the model of ‘Consent or pay’ introduced in 2023and that was already declared illegal since its launch. The changes. The Commission has ordered Apple to eliminate technical and commercial restrictions on redirection, warning that it must refrain from continuing with similar behaviors in the future. It has a period of 60 days to apply changes, or will face periodic sanctions. “If a user rejects this consent, he must have access to a less personalized but equivalent alternative.” European Commission in 2024 Similar is the case of Facebook, who has forced its users to pay to avoid the assignment of their data. In July 2024, the European Commission warned about a possible millionaire fine in case of not offering alternatives. Fine. In March 2024, The EU was appropriate to Apple with 1,800 euros (almost 0.5% of its annual income) after the demand of Spotify. The reason was quite similar to that of the current sanction: “abusing its dominant position in the music distribution market for music streaming to iPhone and Ipad users through their App Store.” Just three days ago, France (the Authorité de la Concurrence) I fined 150 million euros for abuse of dominant position between 2021 and 2023 in the advertising segment in mobile applications. Meta is not something new either. In November The European Commission fined almost 800 million euros for violating the antimonopoolio standards of the European Union with its Facebook Marketplace service. A year earlier, he received a fine of 1,200 million euros for not complying with the General Data Protection Regulation.

If you have opened Instagram throughout the day, you are likely to find reels or stories talking about Editsthe new finish line focused on short video edition. It was an expected response to Capcutmore than welcome to offer an alternative to an application that barely had rivals in the market. Beyond the app, which is still a free Capcut clone with less functions (at least in this initial easy), the key point of this launch attends to a strategy that has been running for years: copying to kill. Edits arrives at the right time. Instagram has had a lot of time to launch a video editing application. But, as usual, he has done it with him Timming more precise possible. In mid -January the government of Donald Trump Baneaba Tiktok And, next to her, Capcut. Just a few hours after the baneo, Tiktok He returned to apps stores with an extension that is still in force. But little or nothing was discussed that Capcut was never available again. It has been right now, in full uncertainty what will happen to the apps of Bytedance (company behind Tiktok and Capcut), when Meta has decided to launch edits. The goal only cares about creators. Content creators are the pillar that supports apps such as Instagram and Tiktok. And there is quite curious data in this regard, according to data from Sefici. The Nanoinfluencers (less than 10,000 followers), have a 5%participation rate, the highest. The microinfluencers (from 10,000 to 100,000 followers), 4%. The macroinfluencers, with more than 100,000 followers, are 7% in participation. Why is it important to understand this? Because in the business model of this social network there are many users consuming content (and advertising), but few creating. And it cannot be consumed if there is nothing created. And want to take them to your land. Capcut is the third more downloaded application in iOS worldwide (nine million downloads) and the ninth on Android (18 million downloads). In combined, 27 million users and the seventh application worldwide, above Telegram, Snapchat and Threads. They are barbarian figures for a video editing app. Instagram has especially optimized edits so that the videos uploaded from this app have the highest quality. Additionally, it has integrated creator statistics into the app itself so that creators have access to the panel from edits. Something very similar to what Tiktok does with Tiktok Studio. It is a shout to heaven so that creators stop using the bytedance tools (payment in the case of Capcut Pro) and begin to move towards the finish lines. Copy to kill. There is something that Meta knows how to do very well: copy functions. He did it in 2016 by launching Instagram Stories, A frontal blow (an almost accurate copy) of Snapchatbut integrated into an app with many more functions. Instagram Stories did not take Snapchat in superior active users, becoming one of the main monetization tools of the platform. Today, an ad is displayed every three stories. Next to nothing. In the case of Tiktok, Reels He has not managed to steal user base. But, again, Meta took the opportunity to copy a winning and emerging idea (the videos in short format), to get a new monetization tool. A golden opportunity. Today, Instagram is still the only real competition for Tiktok. If the app fails to survive in the United States, victory will be overwhelming (it is its second market outside of China). And there, as usual, goal will be prepared to bring all the functions and tools that were already present on the rival platform.

The new Meta Model took a very good score at the benchmarks. Maybe too good

by

We had been waiting for the new family calling 4 artificial intelligence models for a long time. Last weekend the company finally revealed those models and Everything seemed promising. The problem is that the way of announcing them is generating some controversy and an uncomfortable conversation: that perhaps they have cheated in the benchmarks. Call 4 seems great. As soon as they appear on the scene, the new models call 4 goal surprised by their excellent performance in Benchmarks. They were second in the ranking LMARENAonly below Gemini 2.5 pro experimental. However, suspicions soon appeared, because the flame 4 version that is available to all audiences was not the same as it was shown in that ranking. Trucada version? As indicated in the advertisement As a finish line, that flame 4 version was an “experimental” that obtained a 1,417 points in LMarenawhile Gemini 2.5 Pro experimental had obtained 1,439 points. Some experts pointed out that this experimental flame version 4 was a version that cheated and had been specifically trained with data sets used in Benchmarks to be able to score well in them. We have not cheated.Ahmad al-Dahle is the head of the generative division in the finish line, and therefore is in charge of the flame launch 4. This manager has denied sharply The rumors that point to what goal would have cheated to get better scores in the benchmarks. These rumors “are false and we would never do that,” he said. But it was “optimized”. As indicated In TechCrunchin that official announcement Meta did pointed to the experimental flame 4 model that had scored very well was “optimized for conversation.” In Lmarena They indicated What a goal should have explained better what type of model had sent to include in the ranking. The same calls 4 is not so good. Some experts who They analyzed flame performance 4 with synthetic or conventional tests They already warned that performance It didn’t seem so good As they claim in goal. The publicly available model showed a behavior that He did not adjust to the quality that pointed its score in LMarena. Not quite consistent. Al-Dahle himself confirmed that some users were seeing “different quality” results of Maverick and Scout, the two flame versions 4 available, depending on the supplier. “We hope that some days are late when public implementations are adjusted,” and added that they would continue working to correct possible errors. A rare release. What a goal this model will launch a Saturday is strange, but when asked about it Mark Zuckerberg He replied that “is when it was ready.” That also the model used in LMarena is not the same as people can use is also worrying, and it may begin to distrust us from benchmarks and companies that use them to promote their products. It is not the first time that This happens Not much less, and it will not be the last one. In Xataka | Openai is burning money as if there were no tomorrow.

Meta had no own app to compete with chatgpt. Mark Zuckerberg has already warned that this will change very soon

by

Goal is in a strange situation in the AI ​​segment. His Open Source model, calls, is something like the Linux of the AI. From it all kinds of derived developments arise, but while the company triumphs among independent academics and developers, it barely has a presence in the commercial world. And precisely that can change soon. Meta AI Independent APP in sight. According to sources close to the aforementioned project In CNBCGoal is preparing the launch of an independent AI application during the second quarter of 2025. Goal AI is an unknown veteran. The company launched its chatbot Goal AI In September 2023, a year and a half ago. However, the company preferred Integrate it into your social networks ” It was a curious movement, but it has caused it to be a great stranger. Susan Li, CFO of Meta, indicated that Meta AI has about 700 million monthly active users (at least they have opened it once a month). Goal needs its own chatgpt. And as a goal did not offer independent chatbot – it can be webbut not in the EU – the rivals have advanced him everywhere. Chatgpt has always been the referent, but Gemini, Claude, Deepseek or Co -People are now the clear options for those who want to access these tools. All of them offer independent applications on the mobile. Even perplexity does it. Here we have A good example in perplexitywhich is not only a search engine with AI but has become a way of accessing several AI models – Open Source – from the same interface. Goal can take advantage of that same approach since its own LLM is Open Source, but a goal AI has always focused on a flame exclusively. Zuck already warned. The Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, stood out in his talk with investors in January his ambition in this area: “This is going to be the year in which a personalized assistant of high intelligence reaches more than 1,000 million people, and I hope that ai is that assistant of AI.” Did it twice. Not only said that to investors. On January 10 he answered a user who He suggested in Threads What a goal AI had its own independent application. Mark Zuckerberg’s response was an emoticon that represented that he agreed 100% with that suggestion. Subscription model in sight. In CNBC they reveal that Meta plans to collect a subscription for using Metaai, thus imitating the philosophy they have followed for example OpenAi, Google or Microsoft. The idea, as in those cases, is to offer a basic version without cost, and then more powerful, but paid versions.
