Billy Markus, the co-creator of the original meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin (created in collaboration with Jackson Palmer in 2013), has expressed his enthusiasm for Elon Musk's recent tweet on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
原始迷因加密貨幣狗狗幣(Dogecoin,於2013 年與傑克遜·帕爾默(Jackson Palmer) 合作創建)的聯合創始人比利·馬庫斯(Billy Markus) 對埃隆·馬斯克(Elon Musk ) 最近在社群媒體平台X(以前稱為Twitter)上發布的推文表達了他的熱情。
In the tweet, Musk, the CEO of Tesla and founder of SpaceX among other companies, unveiled a groundbreaking device developed by his venture Neuralink.
在推文中,特斯拉執行長、SpaceX 等公司創辦人馬斯克推出了由他的企業 Neuralink 開發的突破性設備。
Elon Musk's Mission to Restore Sight to the Blind
伊隆馬斯克的使命是讓盲人重見光明
Musk reposted a tweet from Neuralink announcing the development of Blindsight, a device that enables individuals who have lost both their eyes and their optical nerve to regain their sight.
馬斯克轉發了 Neuralink 的一條推文,宣布開發 Blindsight,這是一種可以讓失去眼睛和視神經的人恢復視力的裝置。
The success of the device, however, is contingent upon the preservation of the visual cortex. Musk emphasized that the device has the potential to "enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time."
然而,該設備的成功取決於視覺皮層的保存。馬斯克強調,該設備有潛力「讓那些生來失明的人第一次重見光明」。
Blindsight Device: A Revolutionary Breakthrough
盲視設備:革命性突破
The Blindsight device from Neuralink has the potential to restore vision even in individuals who have lost both their eyes and their optic nerve. With an intact visual cortex, it may also enable those born blind to experience sight for the first time.
Neuralink 的 Blindsight 裝置即使對於失去眼睛和視神經的人也有恢復視力的潛力。憑藉完整的視覺皮層,它也可能使那些先天失明的人第一次體驗到視力。
Setting Realistic Expectations
設定現實的期望
To manage expectations, Musk clarified that the vision restored by the device will initially resemble "Atari graphics" with low resolution. However, he projected that vision could eventually surpass natural vision, allowing patients to perceive a wider range of wavelengths, including infrared, ultraviolet, and even radar wavelengths "like Geordi La Forge."
為了管理預期,馬斯克澄清說,該設備恢復的視覺最初將類似於低解析度的「雅達利圖形」。然而,他預計視力最終可能會超越自然視覺,讓患者能夠感知更廣泛的波長,包括紅外線、紫外線,甚至「像喬迪·拉福吉一樣」的雷達波長。
DOGE Founder Embraces Innovation
DOGE創辦人擁抱創新
Billy Markus expressed his excitement and support for the innovative step in a comment below Musk's post, stating, "Well, that's incredible."
比利馬庫斯在馬斯克帖子下方的評論中表達了他對這一創新舉措的興奮和支持,他說:“嗯,這太不可思議了。”
Markus, known online as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, is not only known as the co-creator of Dogecoin but also as a "personal online friend" of Elon Musk, despite their interactions being primarily limited to comments on each other's X posts.
馬庫斯,網名為 Shibetoshi Nakamoto,不僅是狗狗幣的聯合創始人,也是埃隆馬斯克的“個人網上朋友”,儘管他們的互動主要限於對彼此的 X 帖子的評論。
A Mutual Admiration Society
一個相互欽佩的社會
Markus consistently supports Musk's ideas and innovations, expressing unwavering enthusiasm. The two influential figures align on political views as well. In return, Musk has been an ardent supporter of Dogecoin, using his tweets to influence its price in the past.
馬庫斯始終支持馬斯克的想法和創新,表達了堅定不移的熱情。這兩位有影響力的人物在政治觀點上也一致。作為回報,馬斯克一直是狗狗幣的熱情支持者,過去曾利用他的推文影響狗狗幣的價格。
In 2021, Musk referred to himself as "The DogeFather" on X and publicly endorsed Dogecoin during his debut on Saturday Night Live. This endorsement contributed to DOGE's all-time high of $0.7376 in May that year.
2021 年,馬斯克在 X 上稱自己為“The DogeFather”,並在周六夜現場首次亮相時公開支持狗狗幣。這一背書促成了當年 5 月 DOGE 創下 0.7376 美元的歷史新高。
