Today we had the first of two meeting days celebrating the end of IYQ 2025 and the end of many projects (Quantum Spain, Plan Complementario). So many good things happened in Spain these years. Amazing ecosystems elsewhere too. 1/

A few days after posting this, Chatgpt broke. Started ignoring my mistakes and saying I was doing everything right. It even interrupts in the middle of replies to praise. Totally useless suck up. A different AI app specialized on the language I'm learning still works. No attitude there

Good trick also to avoid falling asleep in long conferences, specially when you grow beyond 50 years old 😁
