구글, 매직 리프와 손잡고 AR 시장 재도전…스마트 안경 실패 극복할까?

Google has announced that it is re-entering the AR market with a partnership with augmented reality (AR) headset company Magic Leap. The two companies will work together to develop AR solutions and experiences. “This partnership represents a significant opportunity to revolutionize the future of the AR market,” said Shahram Izadi, vice president and general manager of AR/XR at Google, in a statement, “By combining our strengths, we will deliver immersive AR experiences to our users.” The partnership will combine Google's platform experience with Magic Leap's AR technology expertise to help it compete in the AR market. However, Google hasn't had much success with smart glasses in the past, raising concerns about the success of this partnership. In addition, the AR market is still in its infancy and is highly competitive, making it difficult to guarantee success.

구글은 증강 현실(AR) 헤드셋 업체 매직 리프(Magic Leap)와의 파트너십을 통해 AR 시장에 다시 도전한다고 발표했다. 양사는 AR 솔루션과 경험을 개발하기 위해 협력할 계획이다. 구글의 AR/XR 부사장 겸 총괄 매니저인 샤흐람 이자디(Shahram Izadi)는 성명을 통해 "이번 파트너십은 AR 시장의 미래를 혁신할 수 있는 중요한 기회가 될 것"이라며, "양사의 강점을 결합하여 사용자들에게 몰입감 넘치는 AR 경험을 제공할 것"이라고 전했다. 이번 파트너십은 구글의 플랫폼 경험과 매직 리프의 AR 기술 전문성을 결합하여 AR 시장에서 경쟁력을 확보하는 데 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다. 하지만 구글은 과거 스마트 안경 분야에서 크게 성공하지 못했던 경험이 있어 이번 파트너십이 성공할지에 대한 우려도 제기되고 있다. 또한, AR 시장은 아직 초기 단계이며, 경쟁이 매우 치열하기 때문에 성공을 보장하기는 어렵운 것이 현실이다.

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.
