by

Sam Altman is worried online. A few days ago said in x that the Dead Internet Theorybut now it seems to him that many Twitter accounts are controlled by Bots. The thing was not there. He also criticized that some posts in Reddit seem written by an AI. His messages have unleashed a wave of answers that remind him of something obvious: he has played an important role in all this. In addition, what presents us as a genuine concern would have other hidden reasons. Dead Internet. The first message arrived last week, as they say in Futurism. In him, Altman said he was starting to be taken seriously This theory which states that the current Internet is dominated by bots, AI and content generated by algorithms, instead of humans. Their answers were filled with mockery, such as This user who answered by imitating the chatgpt style or those that sent him This meme With the text “we are trying to find the uncle who did this.” The publication has 3,000 responses and many of them point to him as one of the culprits that the Internet is full of bots and content generated by AI. A real problem. Although the concept of the dead internet is a conspiracy theory, the problem of the bots is very real, and if not tell Elon Musk when he bought Twitter. According to Data from the Cybersecurity Company imperviousin 2023 49% of the Internet traffic were Bots. With the arrival of AI the thing has worsened and In your 2024 report They confirm that the figure had increased to 51%. In other words: there is more bots traffic than humans. In addition, 37% of these bots are used for malicious purposes such as the creation of news and false content. And not to mention Ai Slop that is flooding the network. “It feels Fake“ Returning to Altman, yesterday He shared his sensations After reading the Claude Code Subnetditin which several users praised Codex’s capabilities, the OpenAI code assistant, almost as if it were the best that has happened to them in life. Although it is something that benefits its product, Altman said they seem posts written by an AI and that, both Twitter and Reddit, they feel very false lately. Among the possible reasons, Altman believes that people are starting to speak as if they were IAS, although obvious that the AI ​​models have trained to sound like us and, more specifically, Reddit itself has been used in training of many of them. Altman also mentions a possible case of “Astroturfing“, a tactic that is used to generate artificial opinions that are passed as real to give a false impression of support or rejection of a product. Altman ensures that they have previously suffered it and that is why it is” very sensitive “with the subject. Hidden reasons. As they point out in TechcrunchAltman’s sudden obsession with the bots, the dead Internet and especially the Astroturfing It would have a goal: to sow doubt about the opinions issued about their products. With this, the idea that the wave of criticism of users after the launch of GPT-5 They were not real. Some Users in Reddit They also point to another possible reason: that the rumors of OpenAI’s social network Be true and what Altman is looking for is to subtract credibility to his competitors.

The sudden turn of this F -18 of the Air Force left Gijón without words. Now we know exactly why it happened

by

Air festivals are for that: to amaze aviation enthusiasts with scenes impossible to see in a conventional airport. Uncommon aircraft, extreme maneuvers, moments that are recorded over fire. But what happened this weekend in Gijón was something else. An F -18 starred in such an unexpected maneuver that manyfrom the shore of the beach of San Lorenzo to social networks, they stayed with their hearts in a fist. In just a few seconds, the hunting descended in parallel to the Paseo Marítimo, made a sharp turn at a very low height over the sea and gained altitude again. The flight, which was part of the official show of the Gijón Air Festival, seemed to have left the script. Decisive response. The Air and Space Army He explained on Instagram What happened: “One of our f -18 fighters made an evasive maneuver by detecting a flock of birds in its trajectory. This action is part of the usual protocol to preserve both the integrity of the pilot and the security of the public.” In the same publication, they stressed that “the pilot acted quickly and professionalism, avoiding a possible impact without compromising the exhibition.” PUSLA to see the original publication on Instagram A maneuver that, far from being improvised, demonstrates the level of preparation that these aviators face. When you have to react without margin, there is no place for doubt. Gijón and his festival. With 19 consecutive editions – Salvo 2020, which was digital for the pandemic – the Gijón Air Festival It is already the reference event in Spain. For three days, the city becomes a meeting point for civil, institutional and military aircraft, with an outstanding closure on Sunday at noon on the beach of San Lorenzo. This year, the F -18 and the Eurofighter They were two of the poster stars. And, although it was not planned, the American hunting ended up signing the most commented maneuver of the day. The F -18, a combat classic with history in Spain. The McDonnell Douglas F -18 Hornet, called C.15 in the Spanish Armed Forcesit is a bimotor combat plane that entered service in the country in 1986. It can reach a maximum speed of Mach 1.8, operate more than 15,000 meters of altitude and load more than 7,000 kilos in weapons and missiles. Spain acquired 72 units after a long selection process and, since then, is part of the wings 12, 15 and 46, deployed in key bases such as Zaragoza, Torrejón or Gando. His versatility has allowed him to participate in Missions Air -Aire, Air -Superficie and International Operations in the Balkans, under the NATO umbrella, in the 1990s. When the sky surprises. Gijón’s scene, although brief, perfectly synthesizes what happens when heaven and technique cross at the right time. That flush maneuver on the sea, that forced turn in full flight, was as spectacular as justified. There were birds in the trajectory. And the pilot did what he had to do. From the army they insist that security is always priority. But even with all the protocols underway, exhibitions such as this demonstrates that flying so close to the public remains, by definition, an exercise where the unexpected never disappears completely. Not just fighter: sometimes other airplanes steal the show. And it is not the first time that an institutional flight surprises. In another air festival, the protagonists They were two planes of the Slovakia government: An Airbus A319 and a Fokker 100 that, despite not being fighters, signed an high level exhibition, with maneuvers that left all speechless. His deployment became one of the most viral moments of that event, and in Xataka we tell it here: Images | spotting_daanii.pl (Via Army Air) In Xataka | If something matches all mortals, it is the limit of 100 ml in the plane’s hand luggage. That is about to end

A declaration of intentions? What the closure of the APK tells about Spotify its sudden restrictive turn

by

Spotify was founded in 2006 and it has not been until 2024 that has managed to be profitable. He has had gusts with green -green quarter and others in red, but this year has been the year, in capital and bold. This is a great news for the company, undoubtedly, and a tremendous chance that is right now, in full bonanza, when you have decided to stop that … Countless call Spotify modified APK. And that is right now, in this context, it is a small Leave vu of something we have already lived. Spotify what? It is no secret that looking for the right words on the Internet, any user could reach a modified Spotify application. An fully functional and illegitimate app that, in a nutshell, eliminated one of the great restrictions of the Spotify free plan: choose what song to listen. 27 Spotify tricks – Control your whole music like nobody! As every free service user will know, non -subscribers can only listen to music in random. They cannot choose which song reproduce, but choose a list and let the random mode do their own. In addition, only the songs can jump a few times and, of course, they are forced to listen to advertising. The modified APK eliminated advertising, allowed to choose songs and jump the songs as many times as we would like. Spotify benefits and losses | Image: Xataka The end. And if we talk in the past it is because Spotify, abruptly, without prior notice and from one day to another, has decided to take action on the matter. From a stroke, it has made these modified applications stop working. That has caused the users who used them and look for alternatives, thus creating An excellent culture broth for cybercriminals. Spoiler: Download a modified Spotify application is synonymous with potential problems. Leave vu. Obviating that the use of this application breaches the terms and conditions of the service and the user agreement, it is still striking that this decision has been applied overnight. Spotify is in his entire right, there is plenty of saying, but it is the accumulation of situations and the precedents that attracts attention. Streaming platforms, starting with Netflix and then all the others, decided overnight end the shared accounts. The difference is that Netflix did it when it went through a pothole, while Spotify has decided to stop the modified APKs while on the wave crest. Spotify has 675 million users of which 263 million are paying. Surely the impact of the modified APK is minimal, but its blocking is 1) normal and 2) a possible declaration of intentions. Image: Fábio Alves in UNSPLASH What if Spotify is getting serious? Now that Spotify has managed to be profitable, perhaps he is thinking of putting the points on the ís to all those users who violate their service. Using a modified APK is a clear violation of the terms and conditions of use, so it was evident that this was going to happen sooner or later, but there is something else that is a common practice in the service and through which Spotify has only passed on tiptoe. The shared accounts. The melon of shared family accounts has been opened several times, but it has never finished solving. Spotify Let it clear that the family plan is for up to six family members who live in the same direction, but the reality is that the verification system It is easily drawable. Spotify only verifies the introduced address, but does not seem to follow up like the one that does, for example, Netflix. Spotify shared family accounts have long been in the peephole, but their misuse has been passed. At least for now Spotify can surely know without much problem that your “family” of “six members” is distributed between Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Seville and a colleague who is from Erasmus in Brussels although all, for practical purposes, live in the same direction as the administrator. He simply lets him be, and that will be so until Spotify decide to stop being. And maybe that moment is now a little closer being, in any case, a risky movement. Spotify is alone. Especially since Spotify is a service that depends entirely on subscriptions and advertising. Apple Music, Amazon Music or YouTube Music have behind companies that sell and/or offer other more lucrative products or services than the musical product itself. Spotify, however, does not have that support and play with the number of subscribers is more movie. Image | Pexels Although Netflix has been afraid. Although users put themselves on a war on social networks and ink rivers were written about it, The reality is that Netflix has been great His crusade against shared accounts and the free plan with advertising. 55% of the new highs bet on the cheap plan with ads and the end of shared accounts have made the platform reach 300 million subscribers. Perhaps the end of the modified APK is the beginning of a new stage in Spotify. One in which shared accounts are with relatives, and with no one; one with high definition sound (plan that does not finish arriving) and one in which, finally, streaming music is profitable. Or maybe not, but the background is what they are. Cover image | Cottonbro Studio In Xataka | The great surprise of the Pódcast is not that people are listening to them. Is that he is seeing them
