Elon Musk Breaks Silence on Starlink Impact in Kenya
I’m actually getting Starlink because it’s competitively priced, and I can walk to my local Grocery Store up the street, and order it.
President Ruto had on Monday during a business roundtable meeting revealed that Starlink’s entry into the Kenyan market faced a lot of resistance from local players who felt the foreign firm’s entry would eat into their market share.
Ruto admitted during the roundtable that Kenya would be seeking more competitors in a bid to revolutionize the digital space in Kenya.
Locally, Starlink has been well received with many Kenyan companies and business owners signaling a shift in a bid to access alternative internet options.
Silicon Chip Propels 6G Communications Forward
A team of scientists has unlocked the potential of 6G communications with a new polarization multiplexer. Terahertz communications represent the next frontier in wireless technology, promising data transmission rates far exceeding current systems.
By operating at terahertz frequencies, these systems can support unprecedented bandwidth, enabling ultra-fast wireless communication and data transfer. However, one of the significant challenges in terahertz communications is effectively managing and utilizing the available spectrum.
The team has developed the first ultra-wideband integrated terahertz polarization (de)multiplexer implemented on a substrateless silicon base which they have successfully tested in the sub-terahertz J-band (220–330 GHz) for 6G communications and beyond.
New Google Chrome feature will translate complex pages in real time
Google is testing a new API that uses machine learning models to offer real-time language translation for inputted text and to make it easier to translate web pages.
According to a proposal spotted by Bleeping Computer, the feature is being developed by Chrome’s built-in AI team and is aimed at exposing the web browser’s built-in translation functionality and the ability to download additional language models to translate text.
While Chrome and Edge already have built-in translation features, they can sometimes have issues translating web pages that have dynamic or complex content. For example, Chrome may not be able to translate all sections of an interactive website correctly.
