Retocate a photo without inventing it. Google has succeeded and has won 10 million users

Recently Gemini was news for the integration of a new image editor, called Nano Banana. Its great virtue is that it has achieved something that seemed impossible: finally an AI is able to make touch -ups in a photo without changing it completely. The launch has gone well to Google, who has announced that thanks to Nano Banana they have added no less than 10 million users to Gemini. The numbers. We have known it thanks to Central Androidwho echoed the last publication of Josh Woodward in X. The Vice President of Google announced that since the launch of Nano Banana on August 26, more than 200 million images have already been published and the Gemini app has won 10 million users. Woodward jokes that TPUs are burning (it refers to ‘Tensioning Processing Unit’, used in neuronal networks). The milestone The generation of images was at a very high level in which distinguish what is AI and what is not It is almost impossible. However, he was unable to make a small modification in an image without inventing things. And let’s not talk about asking him to put a text. The striking of Nano Banana is that you can add, change or remove something from a photo without changing anything else. For example we can ask to change our clothes or add a person in a photo. Viral. Artificial intelligence is already mainstream; practically everyone knows what a chatbot is and many people use it for all kinds of consultations (even As if it were his psychologist). If there is something that has contributed to the AI ​​reaches the general public, it has undoubtedly been the generation of images and the most viral case we have it with the Ghibli style photos. Although not with such an impact, during the days that Nano Banana has been available, several have been viralized Prompts like the one Turn any person or pet into an action figurine. It trembles, Photoshop. As we said, the image edition was a point that escaped the AI, but Nano Banana is able to remember and apply small modifications. At the moment Nano Banana does not reach the requirements for professional use, but if it continues to evolve it can be A great threat to image editing softwares like Photoshop.

Spacex is on its way to having more money than NASA. He has succeeded, in part, because he does not pay taxes

A few weeks ago, Elon Musk made public that Spacex’s income They were on their way to exceed NASA’s annual budgeta milestone that showed the spectacular commercial success of Starlink. Now, an investigation of the New York Times has revealed the least known face of that success: Spacex has been not paying taxes for more than 20 years. The other type of engineering that Spacex makes. Although it is not obliged to present results, because it does not quote on the stock exchange, the company’s internal documents show that Spacex accumulated almost 5.4 billion dollars in tax losses Until the end of 2021. Thanks to US fiscal legislation, these losses can be used to compensate for future benefits, which in practice means that Elon Musk’s company has avoided the payment of billions of dollars in federal taxes on income. The situation is even more favorable for Spacex since 2017 for a change introduced during the first presidency of Donald Trump, which eliminated the 20 -year limit for the use of tax losses. This allows Spacex to apply almost 3,000 million dollars of its losses against future benefits indefinitely. A company that grew with public money. The paradox that is most commented on these days in the American press is that Spacex owes a good part of its growth to NASA contracts and the United States Department of Defense, among other government agencies. Some of these contracts were crucial at the beginning of Spacex. According to an analysis of Washington PostElon Musk companies have received at least 38,000 million dollars in public contracts, loans, subsidies and tax credits in the last two decades. In the case of Spacex, which was founded in 2000, almost all its income came from federal contracts until the arrival of Starlink. In 2020, almost 84% of its income, a figure that in 2021 stood at 76%. The golden eggs. With Starlink, the SpaceX business is more buoyant than ever. The satellite Internet network has more than 6 million subscribers and has become the main source of income of the company, surpassing the rocket division. Thanks to Starlink, Spacex plans to enter 15.5 billion dollars in 2025, a figure that is dangerously approaching the annual NASA budget, which by 2026 is estimated at 18.8 billion. This growth has triggered the SpaceX assessment up to 350,000 million dollars, making it the largest non -quoted company in the United States. But you can still use those tax losses to be exempt from paying taxes.
