TechCrunch reported that Tesla has ceased operations of its artificial intelligence supercomputer named Dojo. This was reported by Zamin.uz. Previously, Elon Musk had described Dojo as a crucial tool for developing fully autonomous driving technology. Launched in 2023, Dojo provided extensive computing power for training Tesla's autopilot and artificial intelligence systems.

At the same time, Tesla announced that it will continue to develop AI systems and plans to obtain computing power from external providers. This indicates that the company will continue its efforts to further enhance its autonomous driving technology. The cessation of operations of the Tesla Dojo supercomputer is being evaluated as a strategic decision to transition to a new phase in the field of technological infrastructure. The company plans to continue its consistent work on developing autonomous driving systems in the future.

Football agent Vladimir Kuzmichev represents the interests of Russian national team and Moscow's "Lokomotiv" club midfielder Aleksey Batrakov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He expressed his opinion about the possibility of the young player moving to the Saudi Arabian championship. According to the agent, the information about a 30 million offer from Saudi Arabia for Aleksey Batrakov is merely speculative. He stated that no official offer has been received by the club and there is no concrete information on this matter. This was reported by "Sport-Ekspress" citing the agent's words. In yesterday's Russian championship match, Batrakov scored three goals against "Spartak." The "Lokomotiv" team won this match with a score of 4:2. In the current season, the midfielder has participated in a total of five matches, becoming the author of seven goals. Thus, Batrakov remains one of the key players for his team. No definitive decision has been made regarding his future.

In the fourth round of the Russian Premier League, the “Krasnodar” team will face “Orenburg” away. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Before this match, former footballer Pavel Pogrebnyak shared his thoughts. He stated that the “Krasnodar” team has been showing good results in recent matches and is entering a worthy position for the championship. The main task of the team is to retain the championship title from the previous season. Forward Kordoba has started scoring again, which is increasing the team's attacking opportunities. According to Pogrebnyak, there is a high probability that a total of three or more goals will be scored in this match. The match will take place on August 10, Sunday, at the stadium in Orenburg. Before this game, the hosts are currently in 13th place in the Russian championship standings. The “Krasnodar” team, led by Murad Musayev, is currently in sixth place. Thus, this match is of significant importance for both teams.

PSG is a club that won all major trophies last season, including the French championship, the French Cup, the Super Cup, and even the Champions League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Many believe that after such results, the team will plan for new victories. However, today the complex situation within the club, particularly the competition among players and political factors, is being discussed. Matvey Safonov has risen to the level of the Champions League final from "Krasnodar" in the past year. Now he finds himself not only in the shadow of Donnarumma and new arrival Luc Shevalye but also at the center of strange political and sporting events. The main reason for this is the situation related to Illya Zabarnyi's transfer. According to some sources, the Ukrainian defender has set a condition not to play alongside the Russian player in the team. The situation seems illogical. Although PSG has the ability to buy any player, they are seriously considering the demand of a young and promising player like Zabarnyi. Safonov has good performance statistics: he has played in 17 matches, kept a clean sheet in 7 games, and won four trophies. His contract is valid until 2029, and his transfer value is estimated at 20 million euros. However, the club has added a new goalkeeper, Luc Shevalye, while Donnarumma is still in the team. Zabarnyi's demand is legally unfounded, as excluding a player based on nationality contradicts French labor legislation and FIFA regulations. However, in football practice, the situation on paper often differs from reality. Due to external pressure and political factors, the club management may force Safonov to look for a place in another team. This situation denies the notion that football is free from politics. If a club that is a Champions League winner is discussing more political and social issues than sports, it is indeed a strange situation. Safonov may have to leave the team due to the transfer of another player in this process. The Paris club seems to be choosing not the strongest player today, but the most convenient one. This is a completely different game. Arman Tigranyants

Former “Spartak” football player Valeriy Kechinov shared his thoughts on the defeat against “Lokomotiv” in an interview with the “Evro-Futbol” publication. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. While discussing the match, Kechinov emphasized that “Spartak”’s defensive performance was unsuccessful. In his opinion, achieving high results with such a game is difficult. He noted that “Lokomotiv” did not dominate in all aspects, and that in the first half, ball possession was mainly with “Spartak.” The hosts managed to win by choosing the right tactics, looking for open spaces, and executing counterattacks. “Lokomotiv” effectively utilized almost all opportunities. Referring to Aleksey Batrakov's three goals, Kechinov stated that his performance would be beneficial for all of Russian football, but for now, he needs to fully demonstrate himself and not rush. “Spartak” head coach Stankovich stated after the game that there is not a crisis in the team’s play, but rather a crisis in results. Kechinov also expressed his viewpoint on this, emphasizing that the absence of victories for three rounds indicates a crisis, and victories are needed to overcome it. In the upcoming round, there will be a match against “Zenit,” and he believes that “Spartak” can show itself in this competition. When asked about the possibility of coaches being dismissed, Kechinov did not rule out that such a situation could occur in both clubs. He mentioned that many individual mistakes are being observed among “Spartak” players, which are causing the lack of results, and that the players are losing confidence and calmness. Regarding “Lokomotiv”’s readiness to compete for the championship, he stated that it is still early, but the team’s composition and play are at a high level, strengthened by experienced players. Kechinov noted that if “Lokomotiv” shows stable performance, it could join the fight for the championship.

The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, has demanded that the administration of US President Donald Trump include the transfer of the Donbass region to Russian control among the conditions set for stopping military clashes in Ukraine. This was reported by Zamin.uz. On August 8, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing European and Ukrainian government sources. According to reports, Putin indicated that he would agree to ceasefire if Kyiv withdrew its troops from the Donetsk region. Then the issue of freezing the front line will be discussed. Later, the Russian leader stated his intention to discuss a final peace agreement with Trump and then with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky. According to The Wall Street Journal, in this case, Russia will retain control over the Donetsk and Luhansk regions as well as the Crimean peninsula, which was annexed in 2014. In Putin's demand, Russia only commits to cease military actions, with no additional conditions. Axios sources also confirmed that if Ukraine hands over the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, which are mainly under Russian control, as well as Crimea, Moscow has indicated its readiness to cease military actions. Additionally, Putin proposed to freeze the front line in the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions along the borders of the territories annexed by Russia in 2022. Subsequently, Russia aims to negotiate territorial exchanges with Ukraine, seeking full control over the aforementioned two regions. However, it is currently unclear what territory Ukraine would receive in return. According to sources, Putin conveyed his conditions through US President's special envoy Steve Witkoff during negotiations held in Moscow on August 6. Witkoff and Trump then communicated these demands to European allies and the Ukrainian leadership via phone. European and Ukrainian officials are concerned that Putin's proposal could be used as a strategic maneuver to avoid new economic sanctions and tariffs that may be imposed by the US, as well as to prolong the war. The Economist reported that Putin also suggested ceasing fire in air and maritime areas. Moreover, a comprehensive set of agreements is being worked on, which should define a clear form for freezing the conflict. In a video address on August 9, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky firmly emphasized that the Ukrainian people would not surrender their land to the invader. According to him, the territorial issue of the country is enshrined in the Constitution, which does not allow the president to consent to territorial changes. Zelensky also expressed his readiness to continue cooperation with European countries and US President Donald Trump. He responded for the first time to reports that the issue of territorial exchange is present in the peace agreement project being discussed between Russia and the US. The White House declined to comment on media speculation, citing "respect for delicate diplomatic processes." The Kremlin also did not respond to journalists' questions. Later, according to WSJ, Ukraine and European countries presented their peace plan to the US. It stated that both sides should first cease fire, territorial exchanges should only take place based on mutual agreement, and if Kyiv were to make territorial changes, it must receive firm security guarantees, including NATO membership. Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump are planning to meet in Alaska on August 15. The US president expressed hope that a trilateral meeting involving Putin and Zelensky would be organized afterward. Russia has not yet agreed to such a meeting. According to CBS News, Zelensky's visit to Alaska...

Famous coach Valery Gazzaev expressed his opinion about the results of the Spartak team in the new season of the Russian championship. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to him, there is a lack of stability in the Spartak team. The team has good players, and each player should clearly know their role. If the tactical actions of each player are not properly defined, there will be no good results. Gazzaev described the current situation of the Spartak team as disappointing. He emphasized that changing the lineup and tactics every time is not the best way to achieve results. In the current season, Spartak has only collected 4 points out of 12 in the Russian Premier League. Currently, the team led by Stankovich is in 11th place. In the next round, the Spartak team will face Zenit. According to the expert, stability and correct tactics are of great importance for results. The team still has many important games ahead, and each player must know their position and act accordingly. Spartak fans, however, are hoping for better results from the team.

It has been reported that the labor contract between Serbian specialist Deyan Stankovich and the Moscow club is planned to last until the middle of 2027.

According to him, Batrakov still needs to gain experience and become physically stronger. Sichev emphasized that if the player accumulates more playing practice and becomes experienced over time, he may head to Europe. There, results are required, and every game is taken seriously.

In the current Russian Premier League season, 20-year-old Batrakov has played in four matches and managed to score six goals against opponents.

Oil is considered the main driving force of the global trade chain. This was reported by Zamin.uz. Any change in its price or supply significantly affects not only the energy market but also product prices, delivery times, and production volumes worldwide. Oil is important in the economy not only as fuel but also as a political tool and a factor determining geopolitical position. It is considered the foundation of economic stability and a strategic reserve. According to statistical data, one-third of the world's energy consumption is accounted for by oil. Although major countries like the USA, China, and India, as well as European countries, are investing in renewable energy, they cannot completely abandon oil. Oil is widely used not only as fuel but also in the production of plastic products, synthetic rubber, clothing fabrics, hygiene products, beauty products, and food additives. Therefore, changes in oil market prices, supply disruptions, or international sanctions affect various sectors of the global economy. Oil provides countries with significant revenue and export opportunities, but countries that rely solely on oil may face political instability or economic downturns. For example, despite having large oil reserves, countries like Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Venezuela do not guarantee prosperity. Today, diversifying energy sources, that is, transitioning to alternative sources such as solar, wind, hydrogen, and nuclear energy, is considered essential for ensuring ecological and economic stability. One-sided dependence on energy makes countries vulnerable to global changes and political risks. Therefore, searching for new energy sources that can replace oil and reduce risks is crucial for future success and stability.

In the Yunusabad district of Tashkent city, two men were detained by law enforcement officers for disturbing public order under the influence of alcohol and resisting them.

The Thai prosecution has officially charged 23 individuals and companies in connection with the collapse of a 30-story office tower located in Bangkok. This was reported by Zamin.uz. Among those charged is the well-known construction oligarch Premchay Karnasuta, head of the Italian-Thai Development company, as well as China Railway, a major state corporation from China.

Famous footballer Edgar Davids, who played for Juventus in past years, learned that his acquaintance Nabila Habibi committed theft. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. The ad.nl portal provided information about this. According to the publication, Davids found out several years later that his painting collection had been stolen.

In 2017, when Habibi was unable to repay her debts, the pawnshops gained the right to sell the paintings. One of the buyers saw Davids' name on the back of a painting and contacted him through social networks. After that, Davids filed a lawsuit. Habibi admitted to the theft. Earlier, she had faced problems related to criminal cases and had left her acquaintance after taking 3500 euros from him.

The general secondary education system in Uzbekistan is undergoing fundamental changes. This was reported by Upl.uz. The country has officially begun implementing a 12-year education model. This was announced by the press service of the Ministry of Preschool and School Education. In the near future, a normative legal document confirming these innovations is expected to be signed. This decision was made as part of a comprehensive program to reform the education sector. The program was presented to the president on September 8 and envisions a systematic renewal of all stages from preschool to higher education. The transition to 12-year education is being carried out to align with international experience. The results of the PISA study conducted in 2022 showed that in 85% of countries considered leaders in education, the number of school years is exactly 12. The introduction of the new model will allow adapting curricula to international standards and also enable students to be well-prepared for subsequent stages of education and vocational training. The updated system structure will be as follows: the first year is designated as a preparatory stage for 6-year-old children, which is considered part of primary education. Primary education will last a total of 5 years, including 1 year of preparation and 4 years of primary school. The next stage is basic general secondary education, covering grades 5 to 9 and lasting 5 years. The final 2 years constitute complete general secondary education, which will be conducted in schools, academic lyceums, specialized military schools, or technical colleges. To ensure a smooth transition process and create the necessary infrastructure, about 3,600 new schools will be built and more than a thousand state kindergartens will be opened. It is precisely in these institutions that the updated preparatory program for the youngest students will be piloted. An interesting point is that information about the transition to 12-year education had been actively discussed on social networks since 2023. However, at that time, the Ministry of Preschool and School Education officially denied these claims, emphasizing that the 11-year education system was in effect. The current decision shows that approaches at the state level have been reconsidered and there is political will to implement large-scale reforms. In the history of independent Uzbekistan, a 12-year education system has existed before. From 2010 to 2017, education was organized based on a 9+3 scheme, where students who completed grade 9 were required to continue their studies at vocational colleges and academic lyceums.
