메타, AR 안경 '오리온' 공개...홀로그램부터 AI까지

Meta has unveiled its first augmented reality (AR) glasses, Orion, representing Mark Zuckerberg's multibillion-dollar bet on post-smartphone computing. Orion offers a 70-degree field of view with high-resolution display, supporting AI functions and hologram interactions. While not yet a product, Meta is showcasing its advancements in AR technology through this device. Orion consists of glasses, a "neural wristband," and a wireless compute puck, controllable through EMG technology for hand gestures. Meta plans to release a consumer version in a few years, but current manufacturing costs of $10,000 per unit need to be reduced. Zuckerberg aims to decrease reliance on smartphone platforms and usher in a new era of computing with this technology. The unveiling of Orion demonstrates Meta's tangible progress in AR, despite ongoing challenges in mainstream hardware adoption and competition from other tech giants.

메타가 첫 증강현실(AR) 안경 '오리온'을 공개했다. 이 안경은 마크 저커버그가 스마트폰 이후의 컴퓨터로 수십억 달러를 투자한 결과물이다. 오리온은 70도의 시야각과 고해상도 디스플레이를 제공하며, AI 기능과 홀로그램 상호작용을 지원한다. 제품화는 되지 않았지만, 메타는 이를 통해 AR 기술의 발전을 보여주고 있다. 오리온은 안경, '신경 손목밴드', 무선 컴퓨팅 팩으로 구성되어 있으며, EMG 기술을 통해 손동작으로 제어할 수 있다. 메타는 향후 몇 년 내에 소비자용 버전을 출시할 계획이지만, 현재 제조 비용이 1만 달러에 달해 가격 인하가 필요한 상황이다. 저커버그는 이를 통해 스마트폰 플랫폼에 대한 의존도를 줄이고 새로운 컴퓨팅 시대를 열고자 한다.

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.
