success

The success of goal AI in the US has been limited, but now they want to try in a country addicted to WhatsApp: Spain

by

It is late, that sure. The question is whether he will achieve what he has not achieved in the United States. There they can use Goal AI Integrated on Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram for almost a year, but it does not seem that these options have managed to convert this platform into a success. Will they do so in Spain and other countries in Europe? Goal AI sneaks into your chats. The Meta AI announcement in April 2024 raised A very different approach to that of chatgpt. Instead of considering as an independent chatbot that one can use in a web browser, he invited us to use it as part of WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram. He sneaked into our chats And in our social networks, and the question was if that strategy would work. Modest options. We could Test goal AI Thanks to the use of a VPN when it appeared in the US, and its options seemed decent, but of course not striking in front of the competition. In order to focus, it was still the integration of the service into its social networks. Many users … After all this time the adoption of this AI platform has been remarkable according to those responsible. Susan li, cfo in the company, indicated To investors in January 2025 how Meta AI already had 700 million active monthly users – who have used it at least once a month -, compared to December 600. Growth seems striking, but talking about monthly users is very different from talking about weekly or daily users. … but with apparent little use. In fact, David Curry, from the Business of Apps consultant, indicated in CNBC In December that the Meta AI website generates only 10 million visits per month, much less than great services such as Chatgpt or Gemini, and even that less popular services such as Anthropic Claude. Of course, what matters is that users use it within the platform, but their success at WhatsApp, Instagram or Facebook is an unknown and it is not easy to measure it. Goal does not want us to get out of WhatsApp. A priori the idea seemed suggestive and promising: WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook are already applications in which people spend hours a day, so trying to offer an AI directly in them seemed logical. However, the personal character of these applications collided with that more general use of AI. Ask an AI inside WhatsApp for a recipe or a summary of some data does not seem so natural for that more personal function, and although the option is useful, it does not seem to have set among those who have tried it. Users complain. Some of the users who have tried it in the US They simply hate her and warn how to use it that data is collected and can be used to give them to advertiserswhich means another threat to privacy. Others ask why it cannot be deactivated or eliminate from your apps. In fact, one of the debates around the goal strategy is precisely at that point: the company He has forced To users to have a goal AI in those applications without having requested it. Will we chat with goal AI in Spain? The adoption of WhatsApp is particularly high in Spain, and this may be a good opportunity to know if the idea of ​​goal works here. In the US that option does not seem to have been a success, which makes you doubt its success in other regions. In the company, yes, they seem to be preparing for that eventuality. But now they want to bet on an independent app. Although goal AI has Web versionthat option is still not available in Spain or in other countries of the European Union. Integration into their social networks does not seem to have been the success they expected, because now the company is determined to Offer an independent application to the chatgpt style. Mark Zuckerberg I had already warned of that intention at the beginning of the year, in fact. After the appearance of the news, even Sam Altman joked indicating that perhaps it was time that in OpenAi they began to create a social network. Goal AI Plus. Everything points to what goal will offer both a free version of its service – as the one it already offers – as a payment. That “goal ai plus” would adopt the subscription model and thus compete with Chatgpt plus and other similar services. Here the challenge is precisely to offer more striking options than those of other services, something that for now does not seem to happen. Well in Open Source, regulate in the rest. Calls, THE OPEN SOURCE OF METAit is excellent for developers and for those who want to use AI at home, but their benefits compete with those of increasingly striking models, and a goal, for example, does not offer reasoning model that competes with Deepseek R1 nor has he announced news on very fashionable land such as AI agents or search engines. In Xataka | We already know how much spending on AI by companies in 2024 has grown. An absolute barbarity

Elon Musk has revealed the formula of his team’s success. The problem is that they barely have time to sleep and eat

by

Facing The experiments and tests around the world that seek to establish a four -day workdaythe richest man on the planet proposes a hardly justifiable leap against. Elon Musk recently revealed which is the “formula of success” of the efficiency office it manages in the United States government. The keys: work So many hours that sleep deprivation threatens the health of the workers themselves. The culture of the extreme. He did it a few weeks ago through Your X account. Elon Musk revealed then that he and his department of government efficiety (Doge) work work nothing less than 120 hours per weeka figure that triples the standard day 40 hours. Musk argued that this titanic effort is what allows them to overcome their “bureaucratic opponents,” who operate with conventional schedules. What does science say to all this? Divide the day. Making the accounts more or less standard, and since a week has 168 hours, working 120 hours is to leave alone 48 hours for any other activityincluding in the eating equation, bathing, moving to work/return home and, of course, sleeping. In the best case, if an employee allocated those 48 hours only to sleep, he would get a maximum of 6.8 hours per night, well below The 8 recommended hours by health experts. However, it is still a utopia considering the time of displacement and any other of the basic needs, so it is likely that real rest is much lower. Science. In Fortune They collected several studies that warn about the serious consequences of working in excess. Mayo Clinic points out that sleep less than 7 hours At night it can contribute to obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, stroke and depression. WHO data already indicated in 2016 that 745,000 people died by cardiovascular diseases associated with working days of 55 hours or more. Microsueños. Since the 1950s, scientists Like William Dement They have documented The effects of sleep In the brain, identifying the IMPORTANCE OF REM DREAM and discovering the phenomenon of The so -called “microsueños”episodes of momentary unconsciousness that can cause fatal errors at work. More recently, studies have shown that lack of sleep reduces activity in The prefrontal cortex (responsible for decision making) and in The hippocampus (key in memory). The impact is not just neurological. The study of the World Health Organization indicated that working more than 55 hours per week increases by 35% the risk of stroke and in 17% the risk of heart disease. In terms of productivity, an investigation from Stanford University concluded that it falls dramatically After 50 hours a weekand that working 70 hours per week generates almost The same production as 56 hourswhich suggests decreasing yields beyond a certain point. Musk’s obsession. The truth is that it was already known that Musk was a recognized WORLKAHOLIC. In A 2022 interview With investor Ron Baron, he confessed to having lived three years within his factories in Tesla and Spacex, sleeping in sofastents on the roofs and even under his desk, surrounded by metallic dust and the most uncomfortable conditions. No doubt, his labor philosophy of “more hours is equal to more efficiency” has been widely criticizedsince scientific evidence suggests that imposing extreme days does not guarantee better results and, instead, It affects health and the well -being of workers. Govern without sleep. They counted in a VOX medium report that the extreme work rhythm in Doge has already generated serious mistakes In public administration. From multimillionaire mathematical failures to the accidental dissemination of classified information, fatigue seems to be affecting the capacity of the Musk team to make key decisions. The recent dismissal and Hurrying reaction of essential personnel in areas such as nuclear safety and Avian flu response It is a sign that the policy of exhaustion could be having real and dangerous consequences. Plus: Trump administration is implementing Mass dismissals in the IRS In full tax season, which could generate an administrative collapse. In short, these types of measures, promoted by an apparently exhausted team, arouse concerns about the efficacy and stability of the government Under this new hyperproductivity model. The failures of “hacking” the dream. Paradoxically, Musk and other technological leaders have recognized that The dream cannot be replaced. Companies like Eight Sleepthat sold rest capsules From no less than 4,600 dollars to Musk and his team, they reinforce the idea that, although the culture of extreme work remains promoted, they are also looking for more efficient ways to achieve that eight -hour standard. Even figures such as Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos have defended the Importance of rest In productivity. On the other sidewalk, while Musk insists on that exhausting routine, he himself has admitted that his ancient habits caused “brain pain”, in fact, his Erratic behavior in networks Social raises doubts about whether you are really improving your rest. Sleep more, no less. Despite the alleged glamor that some try to grant sleep deprivation, scientific evidence is overwhelming: The rest is indispensable For the optimal functioning of brain and body. Instead of glorifying days of 120 hours per week, the real challenge should be to find ways to maximize productivity without compromising health. One thing seems clearly clear: at the end of the day, not even the brightest and most innovative minds can escape human biology. Musk either.

Someone used AI to overcome an interview on Amazon. His success has made Google see his candidates face to face

by

There is a thin line Between genius and deception. With the arrival of artificial intelligence, this line is fade even more and the scope of work interviews are a good example of this. A student exceeded a technical interview of Amazon helped with AI and his success has had consequences: someone gave him away to his university, he has created a company so that others use AI in their work interviews and Google will stop doing their work interviews remotely in the face of increased the use of AI by the candidates. The debate on whether the use of AI has been opened in a job interview It is cheating Or it is to use the tools at your fingertips to find a solution to the problem. Entrepreneur or cheater? According to published CNBCChungin “Roy” Lee is a 21 -year -old computer student at Columbia University who got some work interviews in large technological ones such as Amazon, Meta or Tiktok. During the remote technical interview with Amazon, the student used an AI tool that he had created with which he could easily answer the programming questions and tests asked for the Amazon recruiter. “Today, everyone program with the help of AI,” said the young student to CNBC. Technical tests are an essential requirement to access engineering positions in these large companies so the young man had no choice but to prepare conscientiously as can be checked on his profile of the website of the website Leetcode training. Such and As you collect Gizmodothat training was one of the hardest tasks that Lee faced. “It was one of the most unhappy experiences I’ve had programming. I felt that I had to do it. It was something I needed for a job in a large technological company, and there was so much to learn, so much to memorize, and so many random problems that I could wait for me to ask me. He made me hate the programming.” According to the student, the problems that arise in the interviews are very unlikely and more a “theater” approaches in which the interviewee pretends that he has never seen that problem, when in reality he has already studied and memorized his solution. “They are not representative of what you do as a programmer at work,” said the young man. To lighten this “technical procedure” the student used a tool he had developed to successfully overcome his interview with Amazon. The test result was a success and ended up receiving a job offer in the company, although the young man rejected it since the interview was only a way to test his tool. A video with the recorded test that hung on your YouTube account (now not available) and on the tool website are proof of this. Chivatazo and university file Days after his technical interview, Lee received a notification from the University of Columbia informing him of a disciplinary hearing that the teaching entity had opened to the second year student, as you can read in the letter that Roy Lee has published In his X profile. As published by Gizmodo, the University showed its rejection of the use of AI tools as “support” to these technical tests, which it considered as a trap. “Amazon has a long tradition of collaboration with Columbia Engineering … and we are deeply worried that situations like this occur. We trust Columbia will take the appropriate measures regarding this student and we hope to continue with this long collaboration,” says the university in its writing. The young man, far from being concerned about the measures undertaken by the entity, offers the tool so that other students and candidates can use it in their interviews. Face to face in technology Due to the increasingly frequent use of these AI tools during interviews, great technological ones are thinking about again doing these technical interviews in person. Such and As I pointed out Cnbc en One of the latest meetings of L sundar interviews in person. This request contrasts with the fact that, only a few months before, the own Google CEO admit That, thanks to AI, around 25% of the Google code was generated by artificial intelligence. The use of AI is increasingly present in selection processes. From the Use of candidate monitoring algorithms (ATS for the acronym in English of Applicant Tracking Systems), that They automatically select the curriculum of the most appropriate candidates, to methods of training for candidates Based on chatgpt or, like Roy Lee, the Use of AI during interviews remotely The use of AI tools in selection processes, especially by candidates, has opened A debate on social networks On whether this is a lack of ethics, or is as valid as any other tool with which you work daily. In this debate, there are those who see right to use these tools during the interview whenever it is done transparently, since it shows that the candidate has resources To find the solution to a problem. “I remember that once, more than a decade ago, I said in an interview: ‘I do not know that specific command, but there is Google for what we do not know.’ assures a user which raises an equivalence between the use of AI and the search engine. Others, on the other hand, ensure that the objective of these tests is precisely to check the programming skills. If it is altered using AI, loses its reason for being.

‘Mufasa’ has been the surprise success of the year for Disney. And all thanks to not immediately take it to Disney+

by

The First impressions about the ‘Mufasa box office: the lion king’the prequel to the success of 2019, they were not too flattering: it seemed a puncture that confirmed, after the stumbling blocks of ‘Dumbo’ and ‘Pinocchio’, that the remakes in real image of Disney classics (although it enters that pack, ‘mufasa’ is rather realistic CGI) had lost their good star. However, it has ended up becoming an indisputable success for the company, and all thanks to a strategy that seemed like the past: persistence in the billboards. An upperbow box office. ‘Mufasa’ had to see them in theaters with A very powerful rival: ‘Sonic 3’which has ended up raising almost 500 million dollars, becoming the second most popular adaptation of a video game in history and the best entry of the franchise, which has the future more than insured. ‘Sonic 3’ (to which more competition was added: ‘Wicked’ and Disney’s own ‘Vaiana 2’) worked like a cannon from the first moment, and although ‘MUFASA’ led the most watched tops, its 35 million dollars in the first weekend left it well below the 200 with which the first installment started. Erta 30% less than what Disney expected. Taking impulse. The alarms lit in Disney: Had they squeezed the franchise while exhausting it? Let’s not forget that the musical of the original film is one of the most popular in history, and the presence of Simba and company in attraction parks is inescapable. However, ‘Mufasa’ would soon take the expected route, closing a very good year for Disney, which came from sweeping the United States with a demolish thanksgiving weekend thanks to ‘Vaiana 2‘, and to beat records with’Upside down 2‘ and ‘Deadpool and Wolverine‘. However, mouth mouth made its effect and spent five weeks at number 1, entering 2025 with 600 million dollars of collection. And all thanks to a strategic decision. Contrary to the expected. That strategic decision was not to release ‘MUFASA’ in Disney+ for Christmas, possibly a decision that had more than one executive in suspense, especially taking into account the lazy start of the film at the box office. But if I had gone to Disney+, I would not have had those five glorious weeks sweeping cinemas. Finally, the film has raised 712.9 million dollars, becoming the seventh highest grossing film of 2024 … and of course, it has ended in Disney+, where it has been since mid -February. After Christmas, perfect storm. After the avalanche of Christmas premieres, Mufasa benefited so much from the premiere of films not addressed to the children’s public (‘Werewolf‘, for example), as of the Violization in Tik Tok songs Composed by Lin-Manuel Miranda. But above, all, of a certain recovery of the confidence in the rooms not as a procedure before the arrival of the films to streamingbut as a space in which the premieres can perform as they did years ago. Let us forget pandemic. We leave behind one of the greatest stigmas in the pandemic: that we would not recover the figures for assistance to cinemas prior to COVID. In Europein 2023 the assistance rose 18% and in the United States, in 2024 the 8,750 million dollars collected are below the more than 11,000 pre-pondemic levels, but It is clear that the industry continues to approach With a firm step. And the confidence of the industry in the rooms with trajectories such as ‘MUFASA’ only reinforce that impression.

If Nvidia lived only from PC GPUs, she would be about to die of success. And US tariffs don’t help

by

During the last weeks take a family graphics card GeForce RTX 50 Nvidia without falling into the hands of speculators is a real odyssey. At the time I am writing this article the only solution of this family that is easy to find at a price close to the recommended By nvidia is the GeForce RTX 5070. As is understandable, this situation generates frustration among the players who have decided to get one of these graphics cards, as you have noticed in the comments of our articles. To understand what is happening, we are interested in taking a look at “the photograph” of the PC graphics card market. According to the consultant Jon Pedie Research During the last 2024 quarter, more than 78 million GPUs were distributed for PC, which represents a 6.2% growth compared to the third quarter of last year. Nvidia leads this market with a quota of 65%, while Intel and AMD are formed with 16% and 18% respectively. This is our starting point. Difficult times arrive for the PC graphics card market This statement of Jon Pediethe head of the consultant who I have mentioned a few lines above, describes very precisely what the current situation is: “Nvidia, with the highest market share, had difficulty satisfying the demand. And as a result of its size and influence, it prevented the GPU market Tariffs will include profits for the majority, even for everyone, for 2025 “. TSMC is responsible for producing these chips for Jensen Huang’s company Nvidia has not officially revealed how many GPUs belonging to the GeForce RTX 50 family has delivered to graphics card assemblies, but it is evident that not necessary to meet demand. The Taiwanese manufacturer of semiconductors TSMC is responsible to produce these chips for the company of Jensen Huang, but it is important that we do not overlook that it not only manufactures the GPUs for Nvidia games; also produces its chips for artificial intelligence (AI). And the production capacity of TSMC is limited. From one thing we can be sure: in the current circumstances the GPU market for AI is a priority for Nvidia. After all, it is Its greatest source of income. The Jon Peddie Research report expects that from 2024 to 2028 the general market of the GPUs will be contracted annually, and in 2030 only 15% of the computers will have a dedicated graphics card. In these circumstances it seems reasonable to assume that Nvidia and AMD will pay more and more attention to their chips for AI, and perhaps a little less to their GPU for games. Anyway, there is another fact in Jon Peddie’s statement that is worth not overlooking: The tariffs which is deploying the administration led by Donald Trump. At the moment TSMC produces Nvidia chips in Taiwan. Perhaps in the medium term diverts the manufacture of these integrated circuits to Your new US plantsbut for the moment neither Nvidia, nor AMD, nor any other client who buys TSMC his chips produced in Taiwan will be fought from the tariffs. And in these circumstances, as Peddie states, the profits of these companies will be affected. If prices do not raise their benefits will be reduced. And if they are presumably submitted less, so their earnings will also resent.

Its launch is a success and has led to space

by

Jesús Calleja has become the third Spaniard in going to space. Or seen otherwise, the first Spanish space tourist. Anyway, the famous adventurer has achieved cross the line of karmthe border of space that only astronauts and a few lucky ones had gone through until the arrival of companies such as Blue Origin. Context. Television presenter Jesús Callej Jeff Bezos Aerospace Company. This has been the tenth tripled flight of the company, which in total has sent 52 people beyond the 100 km of altitude: The official border of spaceaccording to the International Aeronautical Federation (IFA). Calleja has been telling the preparations for this new adventure in a documentary called ‘Calleja in space’that he had already released his first two episodes in Prime Video and in four waiting for the launch. Produced by Amazon and Mediaset, the flight has been broadcast live in Telecinco, in addition to the official Blue Origin channels. The presenter’s point of view will arrive in Prime Video next week. Calleja has crossed a border that two Spaniards had gone through: astronauts Michael López-Elegría de la Nasa and Pedro Duque de la Este, which far from discrediting space tourism flights, participated in the documentary. The preparations. Both in its social networks and on television, Calleja has been telling the details of coexistence and the brief training through which crew members of a New Shepard mission passed before takeoff. The launch platform is in the middle of the desert, so travelers sleep in some bungalós with fair comforts to spend a few days. Half an hour before the hour originally planned for takeoff, the six crew climbed into the space capsule (which had already flown 11 times) at the tip of the rocket, made a final check of their vital support costumes and systems, and they were instructed one last time on emergency procedures and the correct use of seats and harnesses aboard the ship. In addition to Jesús Calleja, They were part of the NS-30 mission The investor and former Technological CEO Lane Bess (which was flying for the second time with Blue Origin), the ELAINE HYDE media businesswoman, the reproductive endocrinologist and founder of the fertility clinics Ivirma Richard Scott, the physicist and researcher of Wall Street Tushar Shah, and a sixth anonymous crew. The flight. After a 20 -minute delay to complete the rocket configuration, Blue Origin’s flight director gave the “go” to take off, which finally occurred at 9:50 in the morning, local time at the company’s facilities to the company West of Texas (16:50 in Spain). The New Shepard rocket ignited its be-3pm hydrogen and liquid oxygen engine and rose for two and a half minutes, accelerating until separating from the capsule. While the propeller returned to land vertically, seven and a half minutes after takeoff, the capsule began a parabolic flight above 100 km of altitude, officially entering the space for about three minutes. Blue Origin does not show images of the interior of the capsule during its live emissions, but what is heard from inside the ship. Between laughs and comments in English, the voice of Calleja was heard making comments on how the sky had become black or its first impressions to see the earth from her window: “My mother, please, but how we have this luck.” Landing In the 8:30 minute of flight, the capsule, already accelerating in free fall to the ground, opened its pilot parachutes and shortly after its three great parachutes. The landing was soft and occurred in the 10:11 minute, with the retrocohetes on the last moment to cushion the impact with the ground, which raised a small dust. Blue origin teams soon arrived in the area to secure the capsule and open the hatch. Where Jesús Calleja and his teammates came from a few minutes later to hug their relatives. Calleja could not contain emotion and tears before saying: “Earth needs protection.” Images | Blue Origin In Xataka | A Spacex flight caused their astronauts to become genetically younger.

The one that China has undertaken after the viral success of Deepseek

by

China is spreading from the Fever for AI. The trigger has been the launch of the Deepseek’s models that have managed to generate a massive expectation. So much so that Chinese technological companies are making colossal investments in the stock market. India investment exodus. As they explain In Bloombergthe national and foreign Variable Income Markets of China have added more than 1.3 billion dollars in value only in the last month. What is a fantastic news for China is very bad for India: there the market has been reduced by more than 720,000 million dollars. There is an investment exodus from India to China. Examples everywhere. The Ubtech Robotics Corp robotics company, the Black Sesame International Holding semiconductor manufacturer and the Xthalpi Holdings LTD pharmacological research firm have raised 546 million dollars in investment for R&D. Suddenly the money is flowing so that Chinese technology expand their businesses and develop their projects ambitious. If Deepseek can, others too. The investment climate in China has become much more conducive due to the overwhelming success of Deepseek, which has made it clear worldwide that the models of the AI ​​developed in China are competitive with those of the United States, which seemed clearly ahead. In just one month the actions of Chinese technology have grown about 25%. Source: Bloomberg. Until xi jinping changes posture. The restrictions and absolute control exercised by the Chinese government about its technological ones have been the norm in recent years, and that also affected the behavior of these companies in the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. However, A recent XI Jinping meeting With several leaders of technology companies in China, it has shown that there is a unique opening of sights towards these private companies, which will now have more maneuvering margin to boost the economy and potential of the Asian giant. Unfortunate optimism. As they reveal Bloomberg dataChinese technology are taking advantage of that golden egg chicken in which Deepseek has become. The optimism unleashed for its success seems to have infected the rest of the Chinese Tech ecosystem, and the actions of the companies in that sector have grown more than 25% in just one month. Waiting for what happens with tariffs. The situation is of course singular in China, but we will have to wait for events in the coming months, because the New tariffs raised by Donald Trump They could have a direct impact on the Chinese technological market.

Malaga risks being a victim of his own tourist success. So your City Council already warns: it is reaching the limit

by

There are times when one figure says more than a thousand words, and in the case of Malaga tourism it seems to be fulfilled: last summer the hotels of the city welcomed some 418,000 travelerswell above 132,700 scored during the same months of 2005. And that is only what the INE records in its Hotel survey. What does that boom suppose for the municipality? Recently (in A report not thought to transcend the media) the City Council valued it with words of an unusual rotundity. He even suggests his concern. Black on white. Thus, frankly and without hairs on the tongue, it is how the City of Malaga has pronounced on the city’s tourist boom in A report Posted a few weeks ago. It is not frequent that this kind of documents, technical, usually arid and that they are part of the ‘internal cuisine’ of the local bureaucracy, become news. If he has done it, it is because of his tone. Malaga, “saturated”. That tourism has reached such a level of massification in Malaga that it begins to generate tensions is no novelty. In summer thousands of neighbors They went out To protest the saturation of the city, a problem that has aroused interest of the foreign press and Boarding the debate political. What is not as usual is that the Consistory exposes a scenario as stark as the Technical Report which he elaborated at the end of 2024. In it the local administration admits That Malaga “is experiencing unprecedented tourist saturation levels”, especially in the historic center, and warns: “This phenomenon causes certain areas to exceed its load capacity, negatively affecting both residents and visitors.” As if that were not enough, the document recalls that the massification of certain specific areas “congestion”, reduces the quality of life of residents and visitors themselves and affects the local economy. The other tourism invoice. “Tourism pressure can cause the expulsion of native business and added value, being replaced by souvenir stores and other shops oriented exclusively to tourists,” Add the text. “The increase in tourists promotes the appearance of illegal or low quality accommodations, affecting both the safety of visitors and the image of the city.” The document is included in The documentation of a public tender with which the City Council seeks precisely to “de -stationalize” the tourism of Malaga. And since it was signed, at the end of November 2024, it has caught the attention of both Andalusian media as of rest of Spain.
