There is so much demand for fish in China that has opted for drastic measures: two "aircraft carrier" as a hatchery

by

We already said it in 2022: China is hungry for fish. So much, that they have been accused of cleaning half -world folders. FAO says that almost a third of tons produced by world fishing They are related to China And hundreds of Chinese fishing have already been seen sweeping the waters of Peru. Beyond fishermen, Chinese shipyards are building huge ships focused on fish breeding on the high seas, endowed with the latest technology and hope: to help satisfy that Fish appetite. And they are so big that one of them has been nicknamed “fish breeding aircraft carrier.” Wan quing ding. This is the first protagonist. Thrown with success on May 27 (something of what North Korea could take note), the wan qu ling ding is the next great step of the aquaculture industry In China. As we read in China DailyThe Jiangmen Hangtong Shipbuilding Co. shipyard will deliver the ship to Zhuhai Ocean Development Group Co. in August and it will then be when it is mole 155.8 meters long and 44 meters wide can start producing. Beyond its dimensions, what attracts attention are Breeding pools. It has 12 independent compartments and has a capacity of 80,000 m³. This is equivalent to 32 Olympic swimming pools and this floating fish farm is expected to produce between 3,000 and 5,000 metric tons of fish every year. It is what a land fish farm of 3.33 million m² would do. In Xataka We are drugping the salmon with cocaine and anxiolytics. And that is causing them to behave strangely Intelligent aquaculture. The goal is for the ship to focus on the raven of species of high value in the Chinese market, such as the Golden Palometahe Seriola or the mereand it will be support for both internal and Tourism. To its dimensions and breeding capacity is added a water exchange system with the maritime zone in which it is located, something that helps increase the Fish quality. Each of the compartments has a system of sensors and automatisms that control everything. It has automatic food systems, but also something very curious. The swimming pools are semi -submersed in seawater and, if they detect Abrupt temperature changes in water o Contamination, those ‘swimming pools’ rise to reduce water resistance and that the ship can quickly move to safer waters. Almost total autonomy. Beyond their breeding capabilities, what attracts attention is autonomy. According to those responsible, electrical propulsion allows something they have called “autonomous maritime nomadism.” It has 2,000 nautical miles of autonomy and systems for autonomously navigateavoiding natural disasters such as typhons. You can also select the best waters of the breeding at all times and have equipped the wan qu ling ding with a Wind Generation System of 20 kW that can cover the entire electricity consumption of aquaculture systems. In this video we can see the Automatic and Water Filter system of a similar ship, the Guoxin-1: Your Hai No. 1. Almost in parallel, the Huangpu Wenchong shipyard of Guangzhou has built what they say is the first ship in the world dedicated exclusively to salmon breeding. His Hai No. 1 is a huge 250 -meter length ship and specializes in the salmon breeding. As in the wan qu ling ding, it has sensors and automatisms to quickly relocate in safer waters to Avoid pollution And, after a first test in April, it is expected to start working in June. Salmon independence. Its production capacity is imposing: up to 8,000 tons per year, with the ability to deliver Fresh salmon already processed in some national markets in 24 hours thanks to the built -in plant. And, even if it may not seem like it, this is the Hai No. 1 is of vital importance in Chinese geopolitics. The reason? As we read in SCMPit is estimated that more than 80% of salmon by Chinese consumers depends on imports. In 2024 they imported 100,000 tons and is expected to exceed 200,000 tons for 2030. Therefore, with large ships AquaculttersChina seeks to independent its fish supply and stabilize that chain in an international panorama that, as tariffs are demonstrating us, commercial relations can be truncated at any time. In Xataka A "stable macro" Floating: the ship that transports more than 75,000 sheep through the oceans And it is something that has become a national strategy, since the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China public In 2023 a series of guidelines to promote marine aquaculture.

The US opted to veto the advanced chips of AI in China. The shot has come absolutely for the cylinder head

by

In September 2022 the United States intensified its commercial war with China with a singular measure: prohibited export of advanced chips from AI to the Asian giant. That decision was aimed at protecting the innovation capacity of the United States and incidentally Zancadilla to China. Or try, because the truth is that the play has been a real pifia. Nvidia is suffering the consequences. The CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, gave a talk in Computex in which critical strongly that measure and all that followed it. “Four years ago, Nvidia had 95% market share in China. Today is only 50%. The rest is Chinese technology. They have a lot of local technology they would use if they did not have Nvidia.” The veto has caused the opposite effect. Huang continued to say that those measures They have caused just the opposite that was intended. Instead of leaving China back in the field of technological innovation, they have awakened it. “Export controls have provided them with the spirit (to innovate), and government support has accelerated its development. Our competition is intense in China. “ The H20 chip has been a ruin for Nvidia. The last of the examples of this disaster we have In the H20 chipa “trimmed” and less capable version of its most advanced chips that was developed precisely for the Chinese market. Although During all 2024 Nvidia was allowed to export that chip to China, in April the US government prohibited these sales. That caused some losses of 5.5 billion dollars In Nvidia, a hard blow from which they now try to recover with A new version that Not even It will be based on Hopper architecture. USA should back. For Huang, the strategy is the wrong one: “If the US wants to stay ahead, we need to maximize and accelerate the diffusion (of our technology), not limit it.” The Government prepares the review of the “AI DIFFUSION RULE” issued by Biden in January 2025. This regulation further restricted exports to China of Hardware and AI software. CUDA, also threatened. The hardware is no longer the problem, but there is an important one with CUDA, the NVIDIA ecosystem that is absolute reference for solutions of IA software solutions. Huawei has an alternative called Cann, but there are several Western companies that also want to get rid of the domain of CUDA. Among them are Intel, Openai and of course, AMD, that in fact It has technically higher chips to those of Nvidia but that actually behave worse for having lower software. But China goes to yours. The striking thing about all this is that the US strategy has caused a spectacular effect in China, where the development of “very socialist” models It is now overwhelming – Deepseek R1 is the clear example. But they are also making surprising chips Like Huawei’s Ascend 910ccomparable to the almost mythical Nvidia H100. The thing does not end there: they are already preparing the deployment of The new ascend 910dwhich is supposed to even go further.

Tesla had opted a good part of his year to a Tesla Model and below 40,000 euros. Right now is an illusion

by

The year 2025 has not started for Elon Musk’s company as expected. In fact, it has begun in all the ways that could not be expected if you are in charge of a car company. At the fall in the price of shares one has to add more or less continuous attacks to the company itself with boycots of all kinds (some violent and very dangerous) and a Decrease in really alarming sales. Although it is about to see to what extent sales have been weighed down by the hangover to modernize the production lines to get the new Tesla Model and Juniper (which also came out in its most expensive version) and it is foreseeable that they grow over time, the truth is that the thermometer In countries where more electric cars are sold He has jumped the alarms. In France and Germanythe sales of his Tesla Model and have been very poor. And that is a problem for the company since in both cases we talk about countries where activists have been more belligerents against Tesla and where Elon Musk’s political approach with the extreme right has been more criticized. Part of the strategy to refloat sales was to put on the market a small and cheaper tesla. It has all the meaning of the world since SUVs are still the best selling models and the company needs an alternative that moves below 40,000 euros, with competition squeezing strongly. This tesla model and will be called, according to The Wall Street JournalTesla Model Q. The newspaper assured in December 2024 that the company’s plans went to launch this model in the coming months. Of course, it would not be the $ 25,000 car that Elon Musk has promised, this option would be more than $ 37,000. However, Reuters It ensures that these plans have been delayed and that it will not be until 2026 when we see this model and on a small scale. Better for 2026 The news agency pointed out a few weeks ago that this Tesla Model and small would occur in the United States but that there were also plans to produce it in Europe and China, so it is expected that the assembly lines could be both products at the same time and, therefore, share a good part of the components. Then, in March, Reuters He pointed out that internal sources of Tesla estimated the cost savings of production of this new electric car at 20%. It is not known if that cost reduction would be associated, for example, to a smaller battery. What the agency’s journalists assure is that the new Tesla Model Q or Tesla Model and in more affordable format would be little affected by tariffs. They point out that Tesla has been promoting the internal supply of their pieces in the United States for two years and, therefore, it would have less components affected by the new commercial barriers applied by Donald Trump that tax with 25% the import of cars but also of the pieces arrived from outside although the car is manufactured on US soil. However, and although they expected to produce 250,000 vehicles in their plants in the United States, Tesla has delayed the plans to 2026 but it is not clear what are the reasons that have led to making this decision. Keep in mind that at the end of last year the information of The Wall Street Journal He already referred to an internal document of the company shared with Deutsch Bank, so The vehicle should be very advanced In its development. It is not the first time that the company delays plans related to its lowest cost cars. For years he has been talking (and promising) that we would see a tesla of $ 25,000 but Elon Musk rejected this route during the presentation of the Tesla Cybercab And, even, this possibility of “Absurd idea”. The company’s owner has prioritized autonomous driving, ensuring that this source of income will be key to Tesla in the coming years. However, the competition is tightening and already has cars like the KIA EV3 or the Renault Mégane E-Tech (among others), vehicles that would fight with that future Tesla Model q or Tesla Model and in miniature for price and size and that are already sold for less than 40,000 euros.

The EU has opted her mining independence in front of China to the most unsuspected site: Extremadura

by

Extremadura recently jumped into the media by four potential rare earth deposits. Although this is a thesis at the moment without practical application, the community presents other equally valuable elements that have made the European union put their eyes on it. A valuable source. The European Commission has launched A package of 47 strategic projects, among which seven are located in Spain and three in Extremadura. This initiative is aimed at ensuring the supply of essential raw materials for the European industry, such as Lithium, Nickel and Wolframio, and avoid dependence on countries like China. The EU support for extraction in these deposits will be 22,000 million euros. The Extremadura mines. The deposits that will receive European funds are the mines of Aguablanca, Las Navas and La Parrilla. Besides. The companies at the head of these initiatives will be: Lithium Iberia, Río Narcea and P6 Metals. In particular, the Navas project will receive an investment of more than 500 million euros, According to ABCand it is one of the most ambitious farms on the continent that will have the support of electric vehicle belonging. The lithium mine of Cáceres has been out of aid Due to the local dispute on the impact of extraction on the population. As they collect in Digital Extremaduraantiminas groups like Ama Cáceres and save the mountain of Cáceres have considered that it is a victory. Two of them reopen. On the one hand, the Aguablanca mine, located south of the province of Badajoz, is the only Nickel site in all of Europe. As detailed by the countryit was closed for ten years due to the fall in nickel prices and copper. Its reopening is important for the European Union, given the growing demand for this metal for the battery industry. On the other hand, the grill mine, in Cáceres, which houses the largest Wolframium site in Europe. Although his activity was suspended in 1986, he resumed in 2019 with the exploitation of dumps. Currently, the Wolframium appears on the list of EU critical raw materials. Controversy. According to eldiario.esin the mining projects of Extremadura, entrepreneurs and financial would be involved such as Alejandro Ayala, known for its connection to Civitas and Atlético de Madrid, Enrique Martinavarro, related to the Horteofrusco sector and the venture capital, in addition to Miguel Rodríguez, owner of Festina. These entrepreneurs, together with the investment of funds such as Blackrock, would carry out the projects. The distribution of the funds. The European Union (EU) seeks with these funds to ensure its critical raw materials for the development of new technologies and reduce its dependence with external suppliers, such as China, As reported by Euronews. In addition, the commission has warned in the statement that it cannot allow lithium and other elements to become a new source of vulnerability, similar to what happened with Russian gas.

The mountains needs maintenance, but doing so is expensive. In León they have opted for four -legged firefighters and hooves

by

Environmental care does not always require large investments or technologies to the last. Sometimes, you just need controlled grazing to prevent problems in electrical networks. Everything may sound very confusing, but a pioneering project has found a great solution. Short. As the saying would say, it is better to prevent than cure, and so is the Redeia project in the Leonese mountain that uses sheep, cows and horses to control the vegetation under high voltage lines. The “Network Pasture” initiative It has joined eight livestock farmsthrough its subsidiary Red Eléctrica, where more than 3,300 animals distributed in different areas of the province, such as La Robla, Villamanín, Pola de Gordón, La Ercina and Cistierna. Grazing. In the Leonese mountain, the project covers 65 hectares and 28 kilometers of electric lines between Soto-Robla and Velilla-Robla. Grazing, which includes a total of 2,900 sheep, 370 cows and 35 horses, improves local biodiversity and reduces the risk of forest fires. This initiative is a clear example of how traditional livestock practices can contribute to the protection of nature. In depth. “Network grazing” is part of your Comprehensive Impact Strategywhich seeks to generate value in the territories where their infrastructure are present, solving social and environmental problems of the communities. Besides, Its objective is Integrate extensive livestock with electrical infrastructure, using cattle to perform vegetation debrote tasks. This approach not only contributes to solving environmental problems, but also socially through employment creation and support for local farmers. Latest technologies. In this project an innovation has been included and it is the use of drones for livestock management. Not only does it improve the efficiency in livestock management, but also offers new opportunities for the adaptation of livestock to the needs of the 21st century. Previously. The initiative was launched in 2022 in Casares de Arbas (Villamanín), where cattle were started to control the vegetation under 3.5 kilometers of lying, about nine hectares. Since then, the project has grown, extending the grazed surface and increasing the number of participating farmers, with the collaboration of the Agrovidar company to manage the project. According to The data collectedthe grazing areas have registered an improvement in biodiversity that other areas where grazing has not been carried out. This translates into a greater presence of arthropods, butterflies, pollinators and floral units. In addition, cattle have reduced biomass volume and modified the type of vegetation, thus reducing the risk of forest fires. Expansion. The expansion of the initiative is taking shape in several locations in the province of León. It is also planned to be extended in the future with more livestock and more grazed areas, which could further benefit biodiversity and reduce the risk of fire in other areas of the region.

Toyota has been one of the few firms that has not opted for the electric car. For now it is doing well

by

If you do not compromise 100% with something and diversify your strategy, you always have the opportunity to One of the business branches Be the best cove in the market. That diversification is key For companies, with technology being a great example Of this, but it also works in the motor world. As? Well, with propulsion systems. And who has understood it perfect is … Toyota, who has been dominating the market for five years. Its strategy has been precisely that: not put all the eggs in the same basket. Cruise speed. On January 30, and how we read in ReutersToyota confirmed that, for 2024, they sold 10.8 million vehicles. It was the confirmation of the domain in the ranking of the car manufacturer that sells the most worldwide for five consecutive years. Thus, the group has been dominating the market since 2020 (included), when it managed to snatch the first place to a Volkswagen that had dominated the previous five years. Europe. If we focus on our territory, the company sold 1,217,132 vehicles between Toyota (the vast majority) and Lexus. In a statement, confirmed that its sales increased by 4% compared to 2023, with electrified options as absolute protagonists with 902,922 units sold. Potholes. Volkswagen stayed at just over nine million units sold, but if something shares the two companies is the bump in sales they have experienced. For the Germans, a decrease of 2.3% while looking to reduce expenses and strengthen their position in China (a key market for them). In the case of Toyotal, the fall was 3.7% compared to the previous year. Not all markets behaved the same and, for example, in Japan, misfortune was considerable. The company saw a drop of almost 20% at home due to different causes. On the one hand, the partial suspension of the Prius production, a Toyota icon, due to natural disasters. On the other, controversies and certification problems of subsidiaries such as Daihatsu. Eggs in separate baskets. Beyond this, that Toyota has consolidated again as the main manufacturer has to do with its strategy. While half the world is obsessed with the electric car, there are countries like Japan that They are still betting on hybrid. This has forced companies such as the aforementioned Toyota, but also Honda, Nissan or Mazda They move with lead feet On the way to total electrification. At the same time, Toyota has several versions of its cars, so we can buy vehicles exclusively with combustion, but also hybrid, plug or 100% electric hybrids. The C-HR 2024 is hybrid or plug-in, but we also have diesel, gasoline models, others that allow you to choose between diesel or gasoline, diesel and electric, 100% electric and even hydrogen, such as the Mirai. In short, they have opted for everything and, while there are some strategies that seem that they will not work in the future, such as hydrogen due to a low implementation of ‘hydrogeneras’ and controversial for alleged unfulfilled promisesgiving all options and offering models with electrical or combustion motorizations, is working. Reputation. On the other hand, it is undeniable that the company enjoys a privileged reputation. If we excites “more reliable car brands”In a search engine, the Japanese are in the top positions, being Toyota and Lexus two of the outstanding names. That good advertising has been pulled in recent years with their cars, which plays in their favor at the moment when someone has to decide for one or another brand. China is a hard bone. Now, as Reuters points out, where the Japanese are not having such a clear domain is in a market that is consolidating as one of the main ones: China. While in the United States and Europe sales have gone stern for the bet in hybrids, in China sales fell 6.9%. The competition in China is fierce, with a multitude of national brands that are looking to expand and others such as the European ones seeking, and need, set in that market. We will see what happens this 2025because, precisely, China is now the one that is expanding and Competitors like Byd or mg, also with many motorization options and aggressive pricesthey won’t put it at all easy.

Years ago Mexico opted to offer longer school days for children. Caused an increase in divorces

by

A time ago a group of economists from the University of Tennessee It was done A peculiar questionfor the concepts and ideas that combines and also its implications: does the school’s school day influence The divorce rate parental? If the time children spend at school clearly affects To the dynamics of the families, conditioning as basic aspects as the hours of adults for other tasks, does that factor interfere with the couple’s breakdown? And if so, how? And why? After crossing school data and separations recorded for several years in Mexico, the experts reached A curious conclusion: The expansion of school days or have greater access to schools with extended schedules does seem to affect divorce rates. It increases them. School Conference (and something else). Over the years articles (many) have been published on how the different school day models They affect To students, their performancehe school abandonment or the “Child Wellness”. The debate It is old and root in a dilemma on which they have run ink rivers: Continuous school day or departure? There are those who ensure that this response has implications that go far beyond the classrooms, such as The gender gapthe Differences of opportunities or family poverty. Click on the image to go to Tweet. A new factor: divorces. María Padilla-Romo, Cecilia Peluffo and Marian Its derivatives: The separations. And they have done it based on a very specific question: how does the expansion of the schooling work affect divorce rates? To find out they basically handle two sources, the statistical records of marriage ruptures and school data on the expansion of the school day in the public primary schools. In Mexico they found databases for both fronts, so the country ended up becoming its particular (and huge) laboratory. The data they obtained and interpretation have just reflected them in An essay Posted in Journal of Public Economics. But what did they analyze? The researchers took advantage of a phenomenon that played in their favor: the “Large -scale expansion” of the model of Full -time school (Full-Time Schools, or etc, with a “Extended Day” of Between six and eight hours) In Mexican municipalities from 2007 to 2016. To be more precise, economists resorted to census data from the monitoring of the monitoring Program etc. of the Secretary of Public Education that corresponded to the 2007/2008 academic year, in which It began to applyand 2015/2016. Then they compared the degree of implementation of that program of school day expanded by municipalities and were fixed in women in divorce procedures in each of those locations. In short, they crossed data. The information on marriage ruptures was obtained from the National Institute of Mexican Statistics and Geography (INEGI), where the cases processed between 2000 and 2016 consulted. And the surprise came. After working with the different records, the researchers discovered that there seems to be A marked relationship between the extension of the school day in the primary centers and the ruptures. At least in Mexico. “We found that the expansion of the school day in 3.5 hours causes a significant increase in divorce rates,” explain economists in Your article. “In addition, the effect is increased with each year of exposure from municipalities to full -time schooling.” A well calibrated trend. The experts They go further and share their calculations on the relationship between both factors, broad teaching days and ruptures. “We found that, as a result of an average increase in the availability of etc. of 24 percentage points, the divorce rate increased by 0.041 divorces per 1,000 individuals (an increase of 12.6 in relation to divorces in the municipalities treated in the year prior to the opening of the first etc) “. Moreover, researchers even appreciate that “the effect increases over time” and the increase in the divorce rate is higher when families enjoy the longest teaching days for seven years. “Our main estimates suggest that the availability of ETC It gave rise to 23,119 additional divorces between 2009 and 2016, or approximately 4.7% of the total number of divorces presented during that period of time, ” The study abounds. Its authors also detected another key trend: the longest school days gave rise to greater divorce rates in areas where less traditional social norms overwhelmed on marriage, divorces and female work. Click on the image to go to Tweet. The question: Why? Extend a few hours the time that primary school The article From Padilla-Romo and his companions suggests that it is not. Maybe it’s a few hours, but influence classrooms. And the reason is that this extension of school days is in its own way “an implicit subsidy for children’s care.” Having their children during a broad period in schools – on its website the Mexican government points out that in etc From 8.00 to 16.00 h– Parents have more time. Especially women, in which It regularly falls The care of the offspring. And those hours can use them in working outside their homes, in exchange for a salary that reinforces their economic independence. Although the researchers recognize that the greatest job among women can have other consequences, such as generating “conflicts”, that mothers with an “abusive couple” remain less exposed to it or simply increase the flow of money that enters home, what That facilitates to face the expenses involved in divorce and separation, the researchers suggest that the economic factor is essential to understand the phenomenon. “A disproportionate fraction”. “Mothers and other female members of the family dedicate a disproportionate fraction of their time to the care of children. The longest school days provide them with an increase in their effective time provision, which translates in better opportunities to acquire individual income “, Zanjan The three authors of the study. “As a result, the negotiation positions at home are probable.” “Our results show that the extension of the school day gave rise to higher divorce rates in areas with less traditional social norms on marriage, divorce and the priority of women in jobs, … Read more

Mistral AI is the French startup that opted for efficiency before Deepseek. His future is uncertain

by

Mistral ai is the French technological jewel. The AI ​​startup has become practically the only European representative that competes with large companies and technological startups in the US or China. He also does it with an absolute focus on efficiency, which is just what is now valued as Deepseek. However, its future is complex. A promising European startup. When we talk about her for the first time in 2023, he surprised that without having any product He managed to raise 105 million euros investment Soon, yes, the fruits of such commitment would begin to appear, which also generated that the firm raised More financing rounds. Flag efficiency. One of the defining characteristics of Mistral AI was that his work was always oriented to do more with less. To seek efficiency. The startup, knowing not being able to compete with the Bigt Tech in resources, has always sought to create more compact models but with great performance. He succeeded with Large 2 123b, which was three times smaller that calls 3.1 405b but matched that model and others like Claude 3.5 or GPT-4o in some metrics. They return to the load with Small 3 24b. The startup He has just announced The availability of Small 3 24b, its new “small” model. Actually it is not so much: those with size between 1b and 14. However, it is certainly an interesting llm for one thing: it competes from you to you with flame 3.3 70b – the last of the finish line, almost three sometimes bigger – and also does it with a latency (time it takes to appear every token) much smaller. The performance is fantastic. Latency, if we pay attention to the internal tests of Mistral, fantastic. Answer three times faster than the goal model. Its performance is comparable to GPT-4o Mini, and also exceeds QWEN-2.5 32B latency, which is something better in some benchmarks. This model, yes, has just had successor with QWen2.5-Max. Open Source, and European data. Another advantages of Mistral’s AI is that it is an Open Source AI –“Open Weights”, rather-, as he calls, Deepseek or Qwen. Unlike them, Mistral is a startup that raises data governance in the EU, something that can be inert for government agencies and European companies. It has already been seen how there is suspicion about where the data ends From our chats with Deepseek –Italy is investigating In this regard – and this is an undoubtedly striking option. Interesting uses. Mistral developers explain that their model is perfect for conversational assistants, because in them precisely matters that they respond quickly. They also highlight the ability to customize/polish the model to specialize in certain tasks such as legal council, medical diagnosis or technical support. The model is available on platforms such as Hugging Facebut it can also be executed at home in quantized seeing if you have at least 4090 or for example a MacBook with 32 GB of memory. At the moment it does not seem available In le chatthe web service that has confessed to us to be based on Mistral Large 2.1. Reasoning model in sight. But while their competitors are launched to the race for the reasoning models, Mistral has left something behind in this area. In a message in x They clarify that Small 3 does not use synthetic data “which makes it a great base for anything in reason.” In their official announcement they go further and point out that “among many other things, in the coming weeks, large and small Mistral models are expected with greater reasoning capacity.” Deepseek advancing on the right. The Chinese fashion startup has become the star of the moment with its models, and especially with its reasoning model, Deepseek R1. He has also achieved it using the same weapon as Mistral: efficiency. Deepseek’s success validates Mistral’s strategy, of course, but the question is whether Mistral will continue to compete or be overwhelmed by Chinese and US startups if they also partially or totally adopt that same approach. Mistral’s market share is modest, but is in danger of reducing with the strong competition of US and China companies. Source: FT. Doubts about the future. In media as Financial Times The concern about the future of Mistral and the European startups is discussed. There is no other to work in LLM –The German Aleph Alpha He left that race In September 2024-, and that compromises the future of European efforts to compete and not depend completely on the models of China and the US no matter how they can be. In Spain projects such as Alia are an interesting first step, but for now they are far from the LLMs and models mentioned. Operational limbo. This economic newspaper also indicates that with an assessment of 6,000 million euros Mistral is in a kind of limbo. He has raised too much money to gradually disappear, but not enough to compete with US mega -companies, for example. Acquihire on the horizon? Sean Maher, from the Entext consultancy, believes that Mistral can Follow the steps of inflection aiwhich was acquired by Microsoft – Mustafa Suleyman, current head of Ia in Redmond, was his co -founder. Thus, a potential acquisition of its resources and especially of their talent (which is usually called ‘acquihire’) is not ruled out. Image | Mistral ai
