The US and Spacex wanted to revolutionize the delivery of weapons anywhere in the world. A tropical bird had other plans

Starship is called to be the ship-cohete that Put humanity on Marsbut years ago he caught the attention of Pentagon For something much more earthly: transport military merchandise from one point to another on earth. But what they expected from Spacex And the Pentagon was an enemy who put those plans in check. Tropical birds. Revolutionizing military logistics. After a series of incidents, in 2024 we witnessed something unprecedented. He Starship propeller rocket was intercepted with millimeter accuracy by a mechanical arm. This, which seems little thing, is the starting gun for the revolution of space missions because it promises to reduce costs and shorten times because the rockets are no longer disposable between missions. Long before achievement, in 2021, the Pentagon already showed interest in these capabilities. The United States Air Force had an internal program called ‘Rocket Cargo‘With an ambitious objective, but easy to explain: transport huge amounts of military load from one point to another on the planet in a matter of minutes. Suspense. We are talking about the ability to deliver up to 150 tons of load anywhere on Earth in a maximum time of 90 minutes, which would imply an unprecedented and unprecedented deployment, as well as A tremendous strategic advantage. However, something like this requires evidence beyond those that Spacex itself is doing with its ship-cohete, and the idea of the Air Force was to start trying these rockets in a Pacific Atolón. It is not going to be. How can we read in Reuterson that remote island at 1,300 kilometers southwest of Hawaii, at least 14 species of tropical birds live. And, according to biologists, Spacex and Air Force tests would damage these species that nest in the area. Atoll location And relocation. This atoll, called Johnstonhas only 2.6 square kilometers and is part of the National Marine Monument of the remote Pacific Islands, so, as a source of the Air Force confirmed to the American military magazine ‘Stars and Stripes’, they will have to look for a new ‘patio’ of testing. According to the FFAA spokesman to the American magazine, they are already “exploring alternative places to develop the program”. Mistreating atolls. It is not the first time That the activities of the Musk company damages the flora and fauna of a place. It happened in Boca Chica, Texas, in 2023, when an explosion ended both with nests and coastal bird eggs, which caused legal problems to the company. Problems that Musk reacted with his particular and curious sense of humor, stating that he would stop eating tortillas for a week to compensate. And the truth is that this is a small victory for the tropical birds of the Johnson atolion, since the atolls of the quadrant and their fauna did not have so much luck in the pastwhen they were chosen as Objective for nuclear tests During the cold war, ending with entire islands of a plumazo and causing the Fear of nuclear radiation long before the Chernobyl accident.

China wants to revolutionize the hypersonic flight of airplanes and missiles with an explosive ingredient: magnesium

China and the United States are immersed in a race that is not fought on the mainland, but in the air with a common goal: to achieve speeds of more than 7,000 km/h. Both have several hypersonic airplanes projects With potential both military and civil And, although the US seems more reserved, China from time to time goes out to the arena to talk about Your technological achievements. The latest is an engine capable of going to Mach 6 thanks to a fuel formula with a special ingredient: magnesium. Mach 6. When we talk about hypersonic speeds, what we use to measure it is the Mach 1. is the one that represents the speed of sound, established in 1,235 km/h. Thus, a Mach 2 speed would be twice the speed of sound. Well, what are testing At Beihang University in Beijing it is a technique that allows to double the thrust of current hypersonic engines to reach Mach 6 and higher speeds. It is difficult to get an idea of ​​the amounts we talk about, since we are talking about speeds of more than 2,000 meters per second or around 7,000 kilometers per hour. It would be like going from Madrid to New Delhi in an hour. That journey, currently, has between eight and ten hours. EITHER cross the Atlantic in three. Scramjets. The objective of the researchers is to redefine hypersonic aviation thanks to a combustion technique that, as we read in South China Morning Postpractically doubles the thrust of a scramjet engine. It is the abbreviation of “Supersonic Combustion Ramjets”, these Ramjets being reaction engines created to reach Mach 3 speeds. To function, the air enters the engine at high speed. They are motors without turbines that compress that air at supersonic speed (do not slowly subsuite like Ramjets) and then the fuel is injected. It can be hydrogen, but also kerosene, which is mixed with compressed air and, as a result, a supersonic jet of hot gases that propels the vehicle is generated. When it occurs for the first time, it is when the sound barrier is broken and something similar to an explosion is heard. “Secret” ingredient. The problem of Scramjet engines is that, at extreme speeds, the energy generated by fuel is stabilized, but adding magnesium to the fuel formula, the thing changes. The Chinese team chose magnesium being a metal with a violent reactivity. When the kerosene burns it generates residual, but when they inject magnesium dust, that CO₂ acts as an oxidant lighting the magnesium particles. Yang Qingchun is the project director and comments that “magnesium does not need atmospheric oxygen”, so those magnesium dust particles react in explosive shapes with the residual gases that were previously wasted, now releasing an additional energy. China hypersonic test vehicle Evidence. And they have tested. Under conditions that simulate a Mach 6 to 30 kilometers altitude flight and using commercial aircraft fuel, magnesium injection increased the thrust by 86.6% with a combustion efficiency of 65.1%. This allows to increase the 613 Newtons-second motor thrust per kilogram at 1,126 Newtons-Second per kilogram. At that speed, the kerosene burns practically completely, the magnesium dust turns to the contact and releases the heat between two and three times faster than only the kerosene. But speed is not the only advantage. Something crucial is not to overheat the turboreactor, so researchers have studied how to optimize the process to increase performance without a temperature increase. Thus, it is the kerosene that acts as a refrigerant of the motor walls through regenerative cooling. The magnesium, which is added later, burns in a “storm of supersonic fire”, according to the researchers, which is stabilized thanks to an optimized flow route that, in turn, helps to achieve that more powerful thrust. Challenges. But of course, the higher the speed, the greater the challenges. We have already commented that the temperature is something that plays against supersonic ships Because they must resist friction that makes the temperature rise above 1,500 degrees Celsius. In addition, at more speed, more turbulence. The team states that this supersonic turbulence entails the risk of an unequal dispersion of magnesium dust inside the postquemor. If there is a bad penetration of the particles, or an irregular injection, the thrust gain falls to almost 20%. It is something that causes the engine to be very unstable. In addition, those magnesium particles that “exploit” are a double -edged sword. On the one hand, the explosion generates that violent reaction that increases the thrust, but at the same time the particles become microcuchillas that can damage the engine. Therefore, you have to investigate engines with the capacity to resist impacts inside. On the other hand, you have to stabilize magnesium injection because it is postulated as something ideal to quickly reach hypersonic speeds and maintain them, but a ship fluctuates in speed, it is an unstable fuel. They have added nitrogen gas to stabilize the entrance of the particles, but the team confesses that it is “as difficult as threading a needle in the middle of a hurricane.” Projects. It is something that China will continue working because it is the team itself that states that it is not something only for airplanes: Yang comments that its design can reduce the launch weight or extend the range of missiles. They will try to inject magnesium on a nanometric scale to see if it is more efficient, but it is clear that it is a project that interests the country. And, yes, China has already tested higher speedsbut what they are looking for is more stability and the way to change between speeds at pleasure, not in such a linear way. And he does it because the United States is also working on it. Not only in aircraft like Blackbirdbut also in systems such as Dark Eagle, a missile with a range of more than 3,000 kilometers and capable of reaching speeds greater than Mach 17 (about 20,000 km/h) with systems to … Read more

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

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

For centuries, olive leaves were used to feed cattle. Now some grenadines want our nutrition to revolutionize

How much is an olive leaf? Here is a question that probably has not done many people in the world and the truth is that it has not been asked for a good reason: because it is almost nothing. In fact, historically no more than as food complement to cattle has been used. Changing that it is gerund. Everything else is A field paid to pseudoscience. That is precisely what you want to change The people of the Biorevaleaf operational groupa group of researchers from Granada obsessed in “fully revalue the olive leaf as a source of phytochemicals and nutrients with bioactive character.” That is, obsessed with the idea of ​​converting that “by -product” into an essential piece to extract functional ingredients in food and enriched oils. But is it really for something? On paper, it serves a lot: the olive leaf is rich in fiber, proteins and Other “phenolic compounds such as hydroxytitus, tyrosol, aglicone, oleaceine and oleocantal, “oleuropein.” What begins to tell us research is that allow reducing oxidative damage And, by extension, many of the diseases that arise with age. The first step would be to introduce all these bioactive components in olive oil (creating a whole new generation of enriched producer). But the second would go further and bring those compounds beyond, throughout the food chain. And how do you want to do it? That, without a doubt, is the most interesting part. It is under study, but Cidaf, the University of Granada, the Oleícola company Torres Morente and Agrifood Cooperativas de Granada They are trying of implementing fermentation processes and ecosstable extraction techniques. Spain in front of the future of the olive grove. In the early 90s, Spain and Italy They disputedhand in hand, the throne of the first world producing country of olive oil. This year, for the first time, Türkiye has surpassed the transalpine peninsula and has become the second great international producer. It is no accident. In the last 30 years and while the world produces twice as much oil that then, Italy first stagnated and then began to decline. Today, Italian olivers cannot produce even half of what the country consumes. Figures. According to the Italiaolivicola Studies Center In 2024, half of 1.1 million hectares of olive trees in the country are in the process of abandonment. 200,000 hectares are in a state of total abandonment and more than 300,000 are managed with “purely maintenance practices.” It is a slow agony that Spain tries to dodge. But it is not easy. The productive bands They put producers in a complex balance that threatens to denaturalize the entire industrial sector. It is not an exaggeration: one of the great paradoxes of Spanish olive oil is that, despite growing 15% a year, More than 500 oil mill will close In the next decade. Initiatives like this leaf or as those that are coming doing with the olive bonethey want to solve this by carrying the olive tree: today, the oil mills (and the rest of agri -food industries) are one of the few industrial structures that articulate empty Spain. If we lose them, the rest of the social framework will suffer a lot.

The Swiss invention that wants to revolutionize how you consume caffeine

Preparing that daily coffee has become a ritual for many. The choice of a good coffee, prepare it in the Coffee maker that we like the most and with accessories that we have been buying Little by little they are part of a process that goes beyond the pragmatism of “making coffee.” However, we do not always have the time or the possibility of doing so, and that is where canned coffee comes into play. Tube coffee, to be more exact. Travel coffee. For those who cannot spend a day without a couple of coffees, traveling is a headache. You do not know if you will find a good cafeteria and, if you load with the equipment, as you can carry something like an aeropress or a Portable coffee makera coffee bag already ground (which is losing properties) and you will need hot water to perform the process. And that’s where the Swiss company ‘non -normal’ has seen a hole to do business: sell coffee in paste. Not normal. The idea It was the work of two passionate about coffee and adventure that “reject mediocre coffee” and that, due to their excursions, needed to find a way of having instant coffee, good taste and easy access. They occurred to them to create a coffee paste that is stored in a tube, such as toothpaste. It is a coffee extract that, according to them, can be prepared directly next to water or hot or cold milk. Depending on the amount of liquid used, we will have a more or less long coffee, but we must bear in mind that the roasting of the grains is strong, which moves it away from many palates. The color of the pasta itself or coffee is ready is a fairly clear indicator. Coffee to chew. Not being a dust, this coffee can give game to experimentation, and those responsible have put some examples that have made me lift my eyebrow: spreading it in a toast (in the comments someone has tried this, as we will see later), combining it with banana or chocolate … and mixing it with yogurt and oatmeal. There is also a photo on its website on which it consumes it directly from the tube, as if it were an energy gel. By the way, these are your ingredients: 46% of Arabica coffee from Colombia. 15% of Colombia’s Arabica ground coffee. Swiss beet sugar, water and thickening. Specialty price. They affirm That it is tastier than most instant coffee because it is concentrated coffee, retains the flavors of newly prepared coffee and have selected roasted grains so that the product is the best possible. As for the price, there is only one option right now: the strong tums. Each tube costs 17.95 euros (more than 10 euros of shipping to Spain) and gives for 20 cups if we apply five grams services each time. There are options such as three pipes for 53.85 euros or six for 86.16 tubes, these two free shipping options. Caffeine. The tubes have a useful life of up to 12 months if it closes correctly and does not need a refrigerator for its conservation. And, at this point, something you can ask yourself is how much caffeine has a “coffee concentrate” like this. Caffeine is still A concern For many people, although there is evidence that it is needed take a huge amount So that we notice any consideration, and each service of five grams has about 47 mg of caffeine. On the web, They clarify that a conventional espresso have about 63 mg of caffeine and that the teaspoon of its pasta has more … or less. In the end, it is something that depends on both conventional espresso and the coffee variety or, if we talk about the non -normal coffee, the amount of pasta we use. What seems, at least much of the advertising that accompanies this coffee so, is that the target user is athlete and mountaineer, who is the one who has most complicated would have access to caffeine a hot coffee during their activities. Flavor? That is the big question. The commercial video makes me funny for the face that one of those responsible for the coffee puts after trying it, but it is obviously impossible to judge something like that until it is proven. I am not one of those who trust the assessments of the users within the websites of the owners of a product, but it is curious to see the difference in criteria when assessing its flavor. Most of the Scores They are very positive -logical-, but beyond that detail, it is interesting to see that there are several comments that claim that it is a bit sweet for their standards … and others comment that too strong. There are those who say that it has too much sugar and others that have very little. They also emphasize that “she knows horrible” smeared in a toast (I have to try that) and there are those who comment that it is a good idea, but that he would like to see a model with an average gang. As I say, it is funny to see the difference in opinions due to the variety of palates and the sensations before the same product, but what stands out is something that, regardless of the flavor that may have, seems evident: its practicality.

The plan of a British company to revolutionize the sector

The future of nuclear energy is aimed at not depending on huge fixed facilities, but on floating plants, capable of moving and adapting to the needs of the moment. In fact, the company that It started is revolutionCore Power, wants to take a step further. Short. The main challenge of nuclear reactors are high costs and long construction times in fixed infrastructure. Therefore, Core Power has announced The development of floating nuclear plants with a modular and mobile design. In addition, they have gone a step further using an advanced fourth generation reactor based on molten salts, with the intention of building these mass units and offering nuclear energy more flexible and efficiently. Market from 2030. although the reactor of molten salts It began to develop in 1950, now thanks to its compact and mechanically simple design characteristics, it is consolidating for floating nuclear energy. In addition, this type of reactor offers several advantages in front of traditional models: its modular design allows mass manufacturing, which could significantly reduce costs and construction time. It should be added that molten salts reactors operate at higher but atmospheric temperatures, which makes them more secure and easy to maintain. Safer. This type of reactors has a passive cooling system, which does not depend on external pumps. In case of emergency, it cools naturally without the need for human intervention. They also do not require pressurization, which still increases plus operational security. Nuclear fuels can also be recycled or filtered from the molten and automatically replaced liquid, which makes the reactor need for refueling during its useful life. Floating nuclear. Being installed in ships does not have the bureaucratic complications associated with obtaining construction permits and fixed areas. By this way, floating plants can be placed near areas of maximum energy demand, ensuring a constant electricity supply. And if the energy needs of a region change or if the political climate becomes unstable, these floating centrals can be disconnected and moved to another area. This design is not only flexible in terms of location, but also in terms of functions. In addition to generating electricity, floating plants can be used to desalination water and produce green hydrogen. The challenges. Despite the great advantages, this type of technology faces several challenges. One of the main is the high initial cost of development and construction, because the required investment is significantly higher. However, mass production will reduce long -term costs. In addition, there are still doubts about the viability of long -term maintenance and the possible technical problems derived from the use of these plants in the maritime environment. Another aspect to consider is public acceptance and international regulations. Although floating plants do not need traditional permits for fixed nuclear plants, they could still face regulatory barriers in different countries. Regulations on safety, maritime safety and nuclear waste management could complicate the global implementation of this technology. Forecasts Despite the ambition of the project, the truth is that the real impact of this technology is yet to be seen. In addition to generating electricity, these plants could play an important role in commercial propulsion and help in other areas as you mention the desalination and production of green hydrogen. Time will tell if these innovative solutions can really transform the global energy panorama while minimizing the environmental impacts that traditionally They are associated with nuclear energy.

Nikola had everything to revolutionize the world of hydrogen trucks. Now is on the verge of bankruptcy

In 2014, and just over a decade after the appearance of Tesla, Nikola arrived. It was another automotive company, another that honored the electrical engineer and inventor And that he also wanted to mark the way in the world of electric vehicles. However, his incursion was not in the cars segment, but of trucks, which earned him the nickname ‘THE TESLA OF TRUCKS‘. He immediately caught attention, with promises such as electric and hydrogen trucks with autonomies of 2,000 kilometers. Today, its trucks are a mere memory and the company is on the verge of bankruptcy. On the edge of the abyss. That is what sources point in both Bloomberg as of The Washington Postwho claim that anonymous representatives of the company have told them that the company is evaluating their financial and liquidity needs to carry out a financial restructuring. And within the options, the sale of the company, the aforementioned restructuring and bankruptcy are included. The question is how a company that became valued -during a very brief period of time, yes- above a giant like Fordit has ended in this situation. And the full photo is quite eloquent. Chulo was, really, but it was just an idea Nikola Tesla. It was in 2016 when we met the company’s first truck, a six -wheeled beast, a power of 2,000 hp and the ability to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 30 seconds to maximum load. It could also maintain a speed of 100 km/h rising a 6% slope and, thanks to a pile of hydrogen, it had an autonomy of almost 2,000 kilometers. Your name? Nikola One. 375,000 dollars was what they were going to ask once to production, something that would begin in 2020. However, that 2020 and without having sold a single truck, Nikola became a public company. It was a strange movement because the only thing that existed were promises. Already We said In its presentation: very nice on paper, but although the truck could be reserved paying a tank of $ 1,500, there was no product. Two. Tre. Even so, Nikola continued to present trucks. The TWO was the following in 2017, a truck of which they did show a prototype that moved with electric motors and autonomies more restrained than those of the first: between 800 and 1,200 kilometers. It also has hydrogen battery, cameras instead of mirrors. And then the Tre In 2018, repeating hydrogen formula, up to 1,200 kilometers and a design more adapted to European roadswhere long morro trucks do not have so much place due to their maneuverability. They had three trucks on their way, but none produced and the promise was still to start deliver LO TESLA AND THE COMPANY affirmed that I already had customers with reservations of even 800 trucks in the US. Controversial. They did not wait and, in 2018, Nikola sued Tesla. It’s funny, really, but beyond the word game, it is because Nikola asked the Musk company due to alleged patent infractions for the Tesla Semithe proposal of electric truck of Tesla. According to them, Tesla had copied three key points of the Nikola One, such as the fiselogue design, the enveloping windshield and the entrance door. They looked, yes (and, for tastes, colors, but the semi looks like a van split in half and the One a more futuristic vehicle). But the main course arrived in 2020: due to accusations of fraud, The CEO and founder of Nikola, Trevor Milton, resigned. It was after a devastating report that Nikola described as a “ocean of lies” and pointed to Milton as responsible for mulminating shareholders to bet on the company. “There was no stack of fuel in the truck. We never affirmed that it existed,” Milton defended himself, who also boasted of having a lot of development technologies that turned out to be from third parties. Cancellations. Since 2020, the waters have been calmer, but that there would be no controversy does not mean that things were good for doors inside. The Badger, His rival against the Cybertruck de Teslait was canceled along with other prototypes and the number of hydrogen trucks does not give to sustain the company. In Bloomberg they point out that, during the first nine months of 2024, only 200 were sold and in October the company said they had effective to finance their operations until the first quarter of 2025, But not beyond. In December They offered Up to 100 million dollars in shares, but it seems that things have failed to take off. We will see what happens with ‘The Tesla of the trucks’, but its situation does not look good. In Xataka | Toyota wanted to make the star technology and the alternative to the electric car.

Of algorithmic trader to revolutionize AI. This is the story of Liang Wenfeng, the founder of Deepseek

In just two weeks, an unknown 40 -year -old Chinese engineer has shaken Silicon Valley and has monopolized the world conversation about AI. It has even caused a global stock earthquake. Liang Wenfeng has achieved something that seemed impossible: Develop an AI model that rivals Openai to a fraction of its cost. If we move the focus, what has actually done is to launch an order to the American domain in Ia. Liang is not a technological entrepreneur to use. Born on the southern coast of China, in Zhanjiang, he began his career studying electronic engineering at the University of Zheijang. With Bright notes. In 2015 co -founded High-Flyera quantitative investment fund that managed more than $ 13,000 million using algorithms of Machine Learning To operate in the stock market. What distinguishes Liang is His unusual way of guiding his career. While most Chinese companies of AI focused on marketing products, He opted for research Pure and hard. “In the last thirty years, (the Chinese technology industry) has only emphasized to make money and ignored innovation,” he told China Waves as collected Reuters. “Innovation is not driven only by the business, it also needs curiosity and desire to create.” This vision materialized in 2021, when it began to accumulate thousands of Nvidia chips for a project without name, just before the United States restricted its sale to China. Two years later he founded Deepseek with just over one million dollars of initial capital. Today, They say local mediaDeepseek has only 140 employees. That is 10% of the OpenAI size, for example. Deepseek’s success He has driven Liang in his country. On January 20, he was in a closed door with Li Qiang, the prime minister. Liang was the youngest in the room. His meteoric ascent, going from a very limited fame to his field to being the epicenter of the global technological conversation in a few days, he has also put him in the trigger for those who question that Deepseek has been able to develop V3 and R1 only with the declared infrastructure. This is what Alexandr Wang, CEO of Scale AI, suggested in statements to CNBCwhen he assumed that his access to Chips had been much older but could not admit it for commercial restrictions. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, It was more comprehensive and even magnanimousbut not condescending. For Liang, The goal goes beyond competing with Silicon Valley. As explained to 36krseeks that China “gradually transit” to be a beneficiary to a taxpayer in the AI ​​industry. “What we see is that China cannot always be in a follower,” he said. “We often say that there is a gap of one or two years between China and American AI, but the true gap is between originality and imitation.” With a discreet profile and a disagreement image That has nothing to do with Altman, Zuckerberg and company, some liang companions They have described it as a pragmatic leader most motivated by his curiosity than for wealth or fame. It fits with seen so far. His commitment to research rather than by commercial applications reveals A certain background of your personality: It puts curiosity for long -term knowledge to immediate benefits. And perhaps that is what has changed the role of China in the Global Race of AI. Outstanding image | X, Xataka, Deepseek In Xataka | I have tried Deepseek on the web and in my Mac.
