TikTok has integrated with Spotify and Apple Music to make it easier for its users to share music and videos.

With this integration, the platform is moving towards integration with streaming services, offering a space for favorite playlists and albums directly on TikTok.

Users will have the ability to highlight their favorite tunes on their profile or Stories, enriching their experience “and increasing the chances of discovering new music on the platform.”

According to the platform, the new feature makes it possible for TikTok users to select “any song, album, or playlist on Spotify or Apple Music and share it in a few steps.”

Tunes can be posted on the platform’s “For You” page or in Stories. It also allows you to send music directly to other users through private messages.

The incorporation of fintech into the Peruvian economy is one of the objectives of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru (BCRP) in 2024.

The participation of fintech companies in the local economy is included in the initiative “Interoperability Strategy for Retail Payments” of the governing body, which has presented a report indicating that with this inclusion “digital payments can become widespread within the Peruvian economy.”

The BCRP is working to integrate the fintech Yape and Plin, two digital wallets that are supervised by the bank. Likewise, it is focused on the “Open Payments” model and the design of its own platform.

The objective is to establish “fair and non-discriminatory conditions that can safeguard the ecosystem from potential risks.”

The legal and technical aspects are a fundamental part of this strategy, since they will allow us to develop our own retail payments platform to integrate fintech and bigtech into the local market.

Currently, fintech platforms operate through the Electronic Clearing House (CCE) and their operations require agreements with an entity already participating within the Chamber itself. This situation generates setbacks that could be resolved by joining the digital payment system under the supervision of the BCRP.

UBS plans to cut around 3,000 jobs in Switzerland over the next few years as a result of the purchase of its rival Credit Suisse, agreed last March and completed in June, as announced by the entity’s CEO, Sergio Ermotti.

“In Switzerland, from a proactive point of view, we expect that around 3,000 jobs will be eliminated in the coming years,” the banker said in an interview with Bloomberg TV, specifying that around a thousand of this adjustment will correspond directly to the decision to integrate the Swiss bank of Credit Suisse.

In this sense, the CEO of UBS has defended that in the case of having chosen to sell this Credit Suisse business, a cut of some 600 jobs would have been required, while the other 2,000 positions that will be eliminated respond to the needs of the restructuring.

Beyond the situation in Switzerland, the banker has recognized that in the banking sector it is very difficult to undertake a restructuring and extract synergies without affecting the workforce, although he has stressed that a large element of the cost adjustment is due to real estate planning, to the rationalization of legal entities and the closure of IT platforms, while factors such as wear and tear, retirement and internal mobility must also be taken into account.

“Having said this, of course, we are going to have to take some proactive measures in terms of layoffs in the coming years,” he admitted, after the purchase of Credit Suisse fattened the entity’s workforce by around 45,000 employees, to around 120,000 workers.

In this way, the CEO of UBS has highlighted that, since the beginning of the year, Credit Suisse has already carried out a workforce reduction of 8,000 people as a result of the cost measures that Credit Suisse had initiated and that have been accelerating in the second quarter.

The European Crisis Management Commissioner, Janez Lenarcic, has advocated an “integrative approach” for the EU-Latin American leaders’ summit on July 17 and 18 in Brussels, the first major event of the Spanish Presidency of the Council, thus opening the door to invite the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro.

“We are in favor of adopting anEU-Latin America Summit, European Crisis Management Commissioner, Janez Lenarcic, integration, Nicolás Maduro, integrationist position, July 17 and 18 in Brussels, first event of the Spanish Presidencynclusive approach to participation in the summit,” Lenarcic assured in an interview with Europa Press prior to the donor conference in Venezuela, when asked about the potential presence of Maduro.

The commissioner has insisted that the July meeting will be an opportunity to exchange points of view on the shared agenda between Europe and Latin America and on issues of common interest, “as well as on issues of interest on which we disagree and hold different positions”.

In any case, as he stressed, each regional bloc will ultimately be in charge of inviting its members for the July summit.

Dialogue in the focus of integration

On the other hand, he has called on the Venezuelan government and opposition to advance on “crucial political issues” in the framework of the negotiations taking place in Mexico, after reaching the first agreements on humanitarian matters last year.

Lenarcic has indicated that despite the first steps taken in the dialogue last November, “there are more crucial issues of a political nature that need to be addressed.”

Brussels defends that the negotiations between Venezuelans is “the only way” to a sustainable way out of the crisis but stresses the need to make progress, after having expressed its willingness to adapt the position of the EU to the new reality in the South American country.

“We ask the parties to negotiate in good faith and agree on solutions that best reflect the interests of Venezuelans,” reiterated the community responsible for humanitarian management.

Messaging app Snapchat announced the launch of My AI, a new chatbot running the latest version of OpenAI’s ChatGPT technology that it has customized for its platform.

ChatGPT is a text-conversation-trained technology that is based on the GPT 3.5 language model and has the ability to generate and link concepts and ideas, as well as to remember conversations.

The social network has now said that it has made an experimental feature called My AI, which runs ChatGPT, available to Snapchat+ subscribers and will launch this week. It’s a technology that can “recommend gift ideas, plan a hiking trip or suggest dinner recipes.”

Snapchat stated that you can give it a name and customize the chat wallpaper and have warned that “like all AI chatbots, My AI is prone to hallucinations and can be tricked into saying anything”.

On the other hand, the company has indicated that all conversations with this AI will be stored and can be reviewed to improve the product experience, so it has recommended not to share secrets with her “or trust her advice.”

Turkey is now a member of the ACN as an observer. The status was recently granted to him, and welcomed by his representatives, who have indicated that the decision will allow expanding cooperation with the countries of the region.

“Within the scope of our developing relations with the Latin American and Caribbean region, we continue our efforts to strengthen our cooperation with the countries of the region in multilateral platforms and institutionalize our relations with regional entities for this purpose,” he said in a statement picked up by the Anatolia news agency.

The Turkish Foreign Ministry has also explained that the ACN initiative, whose ‘pro tempore’ presidency is currently held by Peru since last August 30, will allow “deepen and diversify” economic and trade relations with the region.

The secretary general of the Andean Community (CAN in Spanish), Jorge Hernando Pedraza, announced this decision last Friday after a meeting was held on August 29 between the foreign ministers who are members of the alliance.

“This decision will contribute to the strengthening of reciprocal relations and the intensification of ACN-Republic of Turkey mutual cooperation, even more so in the current circumstances, in which the world and our region require more integration,” he said in a statement.

Turkey thus becomes the third observer country after the body, made up of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, decided in July 2020 to grant this same status to Morocco. It must be remembered that Spain has been an observer since 2011.

Workplace announced two new integrations for companies, among which is the incorporation of Microsoft Teams within this service developed by Meta, Facebook’s parent company, in order to facilitate communication without the need to switch between the two applications.

Through a statement, Workplace announced that Microsoft and Meta agreed to integrate this team video conferencing service from Teams, used mainly in companies, to this tool created by Mark Zuckerberg’s company that serves to put people in contact members of a business organization.

With this new free service enabled, the company believes that “it will make it even easier for employees to keep up-to-date with important information and open more opportunities for feedback and engagement with the entire company”, as indicated in the writing.

To this novelty is added the possibility of transmitting the meetings that take place in Teams to the Workplace groups, so that users can reproduce them, as well as the events that take place in this space live from any application they are using in the moment in which these take place or visualize it later in streaming.

According to the statement, despite being announced now, it will not be until 2022 when companies will be able to reproduce meetings and transmissions from Teams to Workplace.

“We have a shared vision of offering our customers choice and flexibility, so it made sense for us to come together to help them unlock collaboration and break silos within their organizations”, said Jeff Teper, corporate vice president of Microsoft Teams.
