At the beginning of a New Year, each Western citizen has a habit to write down New Year’s Resolutions. And Mark Zuckerberg is not an exception. For him, these resolutions may include putting on a tie at the workplace (2009) or learning Mandarin (2010). This year, the CEO revealed that he planned to take part in public debates to talk about how technology affects our society.

Jarvis AI

Three years ago, in 2016, Zuckerberg took inspiration from the character Jarvis in the movie Iron Man to develop his own AI with the same name. His virtual assistant can also control main household appliances from lights to toaster. Another interesting feature of this initiative is the ability to play music based on Zuckerberg’s and his wife’s favorite playlists.

Mark Zuckerberg versus Elon Musk

After an unhappy partnership, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk have sparked a fight.

Many tech fans have known the fight between the Facebook CEO and the Tesla CEO, Elon Musk. After an unhappy partnership, Zuckerberg and Musk seem to have a lot of difficulties in talking to each other in a friendly way.

It came as no surprise when Zuckerberg required SpaceX to compensate for its damages; however, Musk obviously didn’t have the same ideas with the Facebook owner. The SpaceX said that it was just a free launch.
