애플·삼성 이어 구글까지, 내년부터 인도서 '픽셀폰' 생산

After Apple and Samsung, Google has rolled up its sleeves. Google has announced that it will begin production of its latest smartphone, the Pixel 8, in India starting next year. "We are working with international and local manufacturers to manufacture in India," Rick Ostero, Google's head of devices, said at the company's annual Google for India event here today. Ostero did not name specific partners, but the company is reportedly in talks with Taiwan's Foxconn and Indian manufacturer Dixon Technology. The Pixel 8 is Google's latest smartphone, which the company launched on April 4. So far, Google has been manufacturing its Pixel phones in China and Vietnam. This is the first time the company has revealed plans to produce them in India. Starting next year, India will be home to some of the world's most popular smartphones, including Apple's iPhone, Samsung's Galaxy, and Google's Pixel phones.

애플과 삼성에 이어 구글까지 팔을 걷어 부쳤다. 구글이 내년부터 인도에서 자사의 최신 스마트폰인 픽셀8 생산을 시작할 예정이라고 밝혔다. 구글 디바이스 책임자인 릭 오스테로 부사장은 이날 인도에서 열린 연례행사 '인도를 위한 구글'(Google for India)에서 "인도에서 생산을 위해 해외 및 현지 제조사와 협력하고 있다"고 말했다. 오스테로 부사장은 구체적인 협력업체 이름은 밝히지 않았지만, 대만의 폭스콘 및 인도 제조사 딕슨 테크놀러지와 논의 중인 것으로 알려졌다. 픽셀 8은 구글이 지난 4일 출시한 자사의 최신 스마트폰이다. 구글은 지금까지 픽셀폰을 중국과 베트남에서 생산해 왔다. 인도에서 생산 계획을 밝힌 것은 이번이 처음이다. 이에 따라 내년부터는 인도에서 애플의 아이폰과 삼성전자의 갤럭시, 구글 픽셀폰 등 전 세계 주요 스마트폰이 생산될 예정이다.

X, AI 훈련용 데이터 제공 허용하는 개인정보 정책 변경

Social media platform X has announced changes to its privacy policy that will allow it to provide user data to third parties for AI model training purposes. The policy, set to take effect on November 15, 2024, is expected to pave the way for external companies to purchase X's data in the form of licenses. The new policy introduces a "third-party collaborators" section, but the specific methods for users to opt out of data sharing remain unclear. This move is seen as a potential new revenue stream for X, which has experienced a decline in advertising revenue. Meanwhile, X has also strengthened penalties for 'scraping', the unauthorized collection of large numbers of tweets. The company has decided to impose a fine of $15,000 for accessing more than one million posts per day. X's owner, Elon Musk, has maintained a tough stance on scraping, and this policy change appears to reflect his attitude.
