Google allows sending money by Gmail



Attached as a file, but only available in the United States


   The irruption of technology is causing an earthquake in the financial sector. Fintech account for 21.5% of the capital that went to startups, only behind electronic commerce. Most of these are dedicated to means of payment, followed by those in charge of loans.

The last company to join the wave of fintech has been Google that already allows the sending of money through its email platform. The search engine giant joins Facebook, which has already enabled its Messenger app to exchange currencies.

  Sending money in Gmail is as easy as sending any other attachment, the company said in a statement. You just have to click on the icon of the attached file and choose if you want to send or request money, he adds.

You can request or receive money without installing another application, only using email. In addition, users can even establish that the money they request goes directly to their bank account, free of charge and free of charge.

At the moment it is a function that is only available on the Gmail website or in the Android application in the United States. We will have to wait for the Mountain View to expand this feature and reach other countries.

Artificial intelligence takes over the drones

Artificial intelligence takes over the drones An MIT mapping system allows unmanned aircraft to dodge obstacles at low speed     Can a drone only dodge an obstacle? The answer is yes. The Laboratory of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (CSAIL) of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has managed to provide artificial intelligence to a small aircraft to fly through forests and warehouses. Nanomap, the new alternative navigation system allows you to fly over and avoid obstacles, as long as the speed of the device does not exceed 30 kilometers per hour.    Excessively safe maps will not help if you want drones that can operate at higher speeds in human environments," says graduate student Pete Florence, lead author of a new related document. "An approach that is more aware of uncertainty gives us a much higher level of reliability in terms of being able to fly close and avoid obstacles ." Shocks Many existing approaches are based on complex ...
