The Miguél Álvarez del Toro Zoo in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, is celebrating the birth of a male Baird’s tapir, a mammal that is classified as endangered. The birth of the calf is the result of the Central American Tapir Conservation and Reproduction Program, carried out in coordination with Mexico City’s Chapultepec Zoo.

I know a lot of people want to celebrate any stumble OpenAI makes, and rightfully so, but the imminent “death” of its Atlas browser isn’t a sign of a company retreating from a competitive market. If you didn’t catch the news yesterday, OpenAI announced, as part of the release of ChatGPT Work, that it would deprecate Atlas on August 9. Coverage of the news treated it like OpenAI was giving up on the browser space entirely, with headlines like “The ChatGPT browser is already dead” and “OpenAI is shutting down the ChatGPT Atlas browser only months after its release” making the rounds. Naturally,…

Mikayla Matthews isn’t backing down from Taylor Frankie Paul ahead of season 5 of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.” In a new social media post, Matthews, 26, replied to Paul’s earlier post, in which she seemed to hint that she was the sole reason her co-stars had been rewarded with additional opportunities, such as “Dancing with the Stars” and Broadway shows. Matthews claimed that Paul’s need to remind people she’s the star of the popular Hulu series stems more from her insecurities than anything else.

Las opciones chinas de Volkswagen para suavizar…

Hay vacaciones en las que el mejor recuerdo acaba siendo una piscina o un bufé. Y hay otras en las que los niños vuelven hablando del zorro que vieron al atardecer, de la lluvia golpeando la tienda de campaña o de las estrellas que descubrieron lejos de cualquier ciudad. Cada vez más familias buscan ese tipo de experiencias, aunque no siempre tienen claro cuál es la mejor manera de vivirlas. Porque dormir en un camping, pasar la noche en un refugio de montaña o hacerlo en plena naturaleza no son lo mismo y cada opción ofrece una experiencia muy diferente.…
