🚀 Steve Jobs: Paving the Way for Human-Centric Technology 🌟 In the ever-evolving tech landscape, one question consistently echoes in my mind: Who is shaping the future of tech, and which technologies will leave an indelible mark on humanity for centuries to come? Amidst the ever-changing tech trends, there are those who transcend time and set new paradigms. Steve Jobs was undeniably one of them. While Jobs's legacy encompasses transformative innovations and Apple's resurgence, his most profound contribution transcends financial success or groundbreaking products. Steve Jobs made technology about people, not just technology itself. He championed human-centric product development, an approach that revolutionized our interaction with technology. He emphasized starting with the customer experience and working backward to the technology, a philosophy that redefined the industry. As we reflect on Jobs's legacy, we must recognize that this shift towards human-centered technology is not just an Apple phenomenon. It's an idea that will resonate across the tech spectrum. Companies like ASUS, HTC, and Microsoft are already taking steps in this direction. In the coming decades, every tech company will embrace human-centric product design. Jobs's impact will extend far beyond Apple, with countless tech innovators adopting his vision. Historians will trace this transformation back to the Apple co-founder. If you're eager to contribute to this paradigm shift, take a page from Steve's book. Broaden your horizons beyond tech. Explore the arts, culture, philosophy, and travel. Embrace diverse experiences to understand how humans can truly connect with technology. As we honor Steve Jobs's legacy, let's remember that thinking creatively and humanizing technology requires a multidimensional perspective. Steve's life and career exemplify the profound impact of such an approach. The next century will undoubtedly reveal how far ahead of his time he was and how many companies will follow his path in humanizing technology. #SteveJobs #TechInnovation #HumanCentricTech #Legacy #Apple Jason Hiner ZDNET

Around the world 🌍🤔 Tech Titans Rally Behind ARM's IPO: Some of the biggest names in the tech industry, including Apple, Nvidia, Intel, and Samsung, are set to become strategic investors in ARM's upcoming IPO. This high-profile support underscores the significance of ARM's role in the chip industry. Strategic Investments to Secure Competitive Edge: These leading tech companies are eager to invest in ARM's IPO to enhance their commercial ties with the chip giant. They see this move as a way to safeguard their interests and prevent rivals from gaining a competitive advantage. Expectations of a Significant IPO: The IPO is expected to make a significant impact in the financial world, with anticipated proceeds ranging between US$5 billion to US$7 billion. SoftBank's previous valuation goal for ARM was considerably higher, reflecting a belief that it will benefit from the stampede toward artificial intelligence chips and generative AI — an industry shift that has helped give chipmaker Nvidia Corp. a $1 trillion valuation.

AI has doubled the electricity bill of a C-level friend of mine 😥 😿 😞 . Is it worthwhile? Let's try this fact-check question of AI-IP: "Is there any today's data technology/solution you know, that can interpret and answer the following fundamental and realistic Chinese-English multilingual questions of BI?" With our intellectualproperty (IP), a copyrighted multilingual metadata, we can provide real time answers for policy/decision making as evidence. "Who, in the Ontario province of Canada, has new US patents granted on the nearest Tuesday, when the USPTO releases the newly granted US patents on a weekly basis?" "Who, in the "江蘇‘’ province of China, has new US patents granted on the nearest Tuesday, when the USPTO releases the newly granted US patents on a weekly basis?" Metadata is an enabler, whose purpose is to let us find the data we want. Without metadata, NO data can be found/retrieved, even by the most advanced technologies, like AI, NVIDIA chips, supercomputers, etc. https://lnkd.in/g-aJFnXR Our IP can also make your data service UNIQUE globally.
