Hello, Damoo folks! 😊
It's time again when we explain difficult IT news in an easy and fun cartoon format.
This week brought surprising news that 'the world's first trillionaire' was born for the first time in human history. (1 trillion dollars is over approximately 1.6 quadrillion won in our currency—an unimaginable amount!)
Let's slowly look at who that person is and what amazing technologies emerged through comics below, shall we? 👇
(You can view it by scrolling through the images below.)
1️⃣ The world's most powerful artificial intelligence (AI) came out, but it stopped after just 3 days?
A company called 'Anthropic' unveiled a very smart AI. The U.S. government issued an order saying "don't let foreigners use it," so the company shut down the entire service. The company is resisting, saying it's "excessive measures."
2️⃣ "I don't want to just keep waiting!" A small change developers cheered for
There's an AI tool used by programmers. Until now, once you used up your daily allowance, you had to wait motionless until the scheduled time. Now you can refresh immediately whenever you want, and it received a big round of applause.
3️⃣ Will interpreters become unnecessary? The magic of instant translation while speaking
Google introduced a new interpretation feature. In the past, it worked like: speak a sentence → wait → get translated. But now, translation flows out immediately while you're speaking. In over 70 languages, no less, while preserving your voice tone. It will be really reassuring when going on international trips, won't it?
4️⃣ Humanity's first 'trillionaire' is none other than Elon Musk!
As the space rocket company 'SpaceX' went public on the stock market, Musk's wealth jumped to about 1.1 trillion dollars (approximately 1.6 quadrillion won). It's said to be a scale that even the combined wealth of the world's 2nd and 3rd richest people can't catch up to, so it's truly hard to imagine. Is it really a 'bubble,' or a 'ticket to go to Mars'?
I hope you enjoyed this week's content. See you next week with more useful news! 🙌
