Probé las nuevas gafas Vision Pro de Apple. Así fue la experiencia al usarlas (CNN) — Es raro encontrar una nueva tecnología que se sienta innovadora. Pero anoche, mientras estaba sentada en un sofá en una sala de demostración privada en el campus de Apple usando sus gafas de realidad mixta Vision Pro recientemente anunciadas, sentí que había visto el futuro, o al menos un prototipo temprano y muy costoso.En la demostración —que duró 30 minutos— una mariposa virtual se posó en mi dedo, un dinosaurio con escamas detalladas trató de morderme, y me paré a centímetros del piano de Alicia Keys mientras me daba una serenata en un estudio de grabación. Cuando un pequeño osezno nadó a mi lado en un lago tranquilo durante otro video inmersivo, se sintió tan real que me recordó una experiencia con un ser querido que falleció recientemente. No podía limpiar las lágrimas dentro de mis auriculares.Así son las gafas de US$ 3.500 Vision Pro de Apple: características y fecha de ventaApple presentó unas gafas de realidad mixta, su nueva oferta de hardware más ambiciosa ...

Suspending Hungary’s EU presidency isn’t a sanction — it’s a precaution Alberto Alemanno is the Jean Monnet Professor of European Union Law at HEC Paris and founder of The Good Lobby, a nonprofit committed to equalize access to power.Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, the longest-serving current leader of any European Union member country, has turned Hungary into an “electoral autocracy” that can no longer be considered a “functioning democracy.” And yet, Hungary is due to take over the rotating presidency of the Council of the EU in late 2024.As this may lead the bloc into unknown territory, the mere prospect of Hungary’s impending presidency raises a legitimate yet uncomfortable question: How can an EU member country — like Hungary or Poland — which has been found in breach of fundamental EU values multiple times and had its funds suspended, credibly chair one of the main EU institutions?The presidency gives its holder the power to set the Council of the EU’s agenda by chairing virtually all meetings taking place among the EU’s 27 ministers, and representin...
