Telegram推出付费加群/赞助打赏和机器人付费等功能 帮助创作者获得收益
本次 Telegram 一共推出三项功能，其中两项是面向内容创作者的，一项是面向机器人开发者的，具体功能如下。赞助打赏：Star Reactions该功能类似微信公众号的赞助功能，创作者在订阅频道发布内容后，用户可以通过 Telegram Star 进行付费打赏以支持创作者。对于赞助打赏 Telegram 不从中抽成，因此用户向创作者的打赏 100% 支付给创作者，要启用此功能请内容创作者转到频道设置、反应、启用付费反应。付费订阅加群：Star Subscriptions该功能允许创作者设置自己频道的私密性并添加付费订阅功能，类似我们常说的付费加群，用户只有支付对应的 Telegram Star 后才能订阅该频道。要启用此功能请转到频道设置、频道类型、管理邀请链接、创建新链接并启用需要月费，之后设置 Star 数即可，之后用户加群需要支付 Star 以及后续每个月都要支付订阅费。机器人付费媒体功能：该功能主要面向机器人开发者，机器人频道的开发者可以设置付费图片和视频，发布后用户必须支付对应的 Star 才可以查看图片或视频。这个货币化策略有助于帮助机器人开发者获得收益从而继续在 Telegram 频道开发机器人，让更多用户可以使用机器人完成各种操作。超级频道功能：从今天开始频道管理员在发布内容时可以选择自己的个人身份发布，即发布的内容不再显示频道名称和图片，这样频道看起来更像是你自己的频道。这个功能使用非常简单，只需要在发布内容时切换身份即可，选择你需要的身份，甚至你还可以以其他频道、其他资料发布信息。 ...

Telegram 入门
* Mention somebody through its profile 这个功能目前只有iOS支持，Android要加上啦！如果你想@某人，不需要输入啦，直接长按他的头像，然后向上划，mention option就会跳出来了。前提条件是群友把profile设置成public，同时需要有profile image设定
下一版本這一mention功能擴展到任何profile，即使沒有圖片profile也可以啦🎉🎉
Captions Above Media
Captions for media in chats can now be effortlessly moved to the top by tapping the new 'Move Caption Up' button in the media editor.

Built-in Camera Gains QR Code Scanning Capability
The Beta version of Telegram for Android (11.6.0) now supports QR code scanning with the built-in camera, though with certain limitations.
Firstly, this feature is exclusive to the camera used for capturing stories. If you access the camera via the attach menu in a chat, the scanning functionality will not be available.
Secondly, the QR code must link to a user profile, bot, public group, or public channel—essentially, anything with a public username.

Chat Type Filter For Global Search
In the latest Beta version of Telegram for Android (11.6.0), users can now refine their global search results by selecting specific chat types to search within.
This new feature allows users to click the "From all chats" button on the global search screen and specify the scope of their search. Options include searching across all chats, private chats, groups, or channels.
However, this functionality currently not accessible at all times. For some search terms, the chat filter is only operational on the test server, while for others, it also works on the main server.

这种由多孔轻木、氯化锂和氧化铁纳米颗粒制成的海绵状复合材料，可以相当有效地从空气中捕获水分该团队的发明采用了一种新开发的复合材料，该复合材料以多孔轻质巴尔萨木为基础，制成小立方体；这些立方体被安装到一个带有圆顶盖的杯子中，配有简单的冷却机制和由太阳能驱动的激活系统。这种名为WLG-15的海绵材料还含有氯化锂，以提高吸水性，以及氧化铁纳米颗粒，帮助海绵表层吸收阳光，并将吸收的水分转化为蒸汽。蒸汽还有助于水分从材料中释放出来。该装置本身非常简单：当杯盖暴露在空气中时，WLG-15 材料会吸收空气中的水分。当杯盖在阳光下关闭时，水分就会释放到杯中。圆顶杯盖会引发太阳能蒸发，并促进释放水分的收集；冷却板、散热块和由太阳能电池板驱动的冷却风扇增强了系统内的冷凝效果。仔细观察空气-水装置的不同部件研究人员指出，在实验室条件下，他们的装置在相对湿度为 90% 的情况下，每克 WLG-15 材料吸收约 0.03 液体盎司（2 毫升）的水，并在阳光下 10 小时内释放几乎所有的水。这看起来似乎不多，但考虑到这些块体非常小巧轻便，它在更大的配置或一系列收集设备中可能会被证明是有效的。作为参考，下图所示的九块小海绵块（每块重量不到一克）可以向杯中释放0.5液体盎司（15毫升）的液体。研究人员于3月份在《清洁生产杂志》上发表了他们的研究成果。九个小块 WLG-15 可以在几个小时内有效地捕获并将 0.5 液体盎司的水凝结到杯中据该团队介绍，这种效率高于大多数已知方法，例如雾气收集和辐射冷却，而且由于使用了广泛供应且价格低廉的轻木，成本也更低。在更大规模的装置中，它可以用作便携式集水系统，用于灾区的紧急救援，并利用太阳能为冷却系统供电。浙江农林大学侯俊峰博士领导了中国科研机构与皇家墨尔本理工大学的合作项目。他指出，WLG-15 在零下储存数周后依然能够正常工作，并且可以重复使用多次，效率几乎不会下降。因此，这种材料甚至可以“应用于实际应用，例如在偏远或干旱地区收集水源”。你可能听说过市面上出售的大气水发生器（AWG）。这种电子设备号称能产生同样的效果，而且速度更快、产量更大。为什么不直接把它们部署到受灾地区和缺水的偏远地区呢？Aquaria 表示，其 Hydropack 系统每天可利用空气生产高达 132 加仑的水，但需要电力，成本超过 17000 美元对于缺水地区来说，AWG 似乎是理想的解决方案，但主要原因是它需要消耗大量电力来凝结空气中的水蒸气。许多缺水地区电网不稳定甚至没有电网，因此为这些机器供电可能会遇到困难。虽然也有太阳能供电的选择，但会增加成本和复杂性。此外，AWG 在湿度超过 60% 的环境中效果最佳；而您考虑的许多地方可能并非如此。最后，这些系统可能价格不菲，既需要前期购买，也需要专业技术人员和定制部件的维护。因此，虽然 AWG 确实名副其实，但它并非解决水资源短缺问题的简单易行的解决方案。回到WLG-15：研究人员利用人工智能预测了空气-水装置在各种环境条件下的性能。类似的技术还可以帮助他们发现更多高效捕水复合材料的材料组合。该团队目前正在探索与行业合作伙伴合作试生产这种材料并进行现场测试的方法。皇家墨尔本理工大学最近又提出了另一项受海绵启发的创新：一种受海绵启发的超强材料，可用于建造更耐用的建筑物。 ...

Grok Integration
Pavel Durov announced that Telegram has reached an agreement with Elon Musk to integrate Grok into the messenger this summer.
The one-year partnership will give Telegram users access to xAI’s Grok chatbot.
Telegram will receive $300 million in cash and equity from xAI, as well as 50% of revenue from xAI subscriptions sold through Telegram. Grok may be sold as a separate subscription.
Privacy
Pavel Durov claims that Telegram will only send Grok the data that the user and their chat partners decide to share. The founder of the messenger did not specify whether xAI has the right to train its models on data received from Telegram users.
Note that these words should not be taken as a long-term guarantee — Telegram has changed its approach to privacy in the past, even after making promises.
What features can we expect?
In his post, Pavel Durov presented a video concept of future features. It is worth noting that in their final forms, the features may not work as shown in the demonstration.
1. Grok pinned for all users (0:02)
It is likely that the bot can be unpinned — there is an “unpin” button displayed in the video.
2. Questions through global search (0:04)
A Grok button will appear in global search, clicking on which sends the search query to the Grok chatbot.
3. Communication in threads (0:08)
Communication with Grok may be done in several threads in parallel, the interface will look similar to forums, but in private with the bot.
4. Editing text before sending (0:12)
Upon selecting text in the message input field and pressing “AI Tools”, you will be offered options to rewrite the text: to “Improve”, “Expand”, or “Change Tone”. The new menu is added right before Formatting options in the floating bar.
5. Chat summarization (0:16)
By holding down the unread message indicator, you may select the “Summarize” option to get a summary of the chat’s unread messages.
The interface also shows a selector for the range of messages the model will have access to, and the tone of the narrative. It may be possible to get a summary not only for unread messages, but also for messages you choose.
6. Document summarization (0:20)
In the context menu of PDF files uploaded to Telegram, you will be able to select the “Summarize” option to get a digest of the text inside, without opening the file.
7. Link summarization (0:24)
If you long press a link in a message and select the “Summarize” option, the chatbot will generate a digest of the Instant View article. The summary text may be listened to as audio.
It is not clear whether this function will be available for links without Instant View.
8. Moderating groups (0:28)
Automated moderation of group chats is shown.
In the example, Grok issues a warning to the user and threatens with a ban for repeated violations. How exactly admins will be able to set rules and control the number of warnings is unclear.
9. Grok in 1-on-1 chats (0:32)
It will be possible to configure the chatbot so that it responds in personal messages on behalf of the user. The video also shows how you will be able to monitor the bot’s responses in real time and a button to intercept control.
10. Fact-checking in channels (0:36)
A “Fact-Check” button will appear in the context menu of messages in channels.
What sources the model will use and how reliable such reviews will be is unknown.
11. Generating stickers (0:40)
The sticker editor will allow you to describe the desired sticker using text to generate new stickers, including video stickers.
12. Generating avatars (0:44)
Similar to stickers, it will be possible to generate avatars for your profile.
In the video, the user asks to change the background of their avatar, while the user’s face is preserved. Perhaps users will be able to not only generate images from scratch, but also ask to edit their own photos.
