Leaders in the Field
Elon Musk is probably one of the biggest people working on future tech. He has so many plans for the future. It all started out with Musk being born in Africa to his mom who was a model from Regina and his dad who was an African born electromechanical Engineer. When he was 10 he learned to code and made a simple video game. He then went to Canada to go to university and then Pennsylvania to continue his schooling then to Stanford but left because he wanted to pursue his own ideas. Then Musk went on to make SpaceX, Solar City, PayPal and Tesla Motors. He is now building a Gigafactory that will produce all the battery's for Tesla's in the future He even wants to detonate nuclear weapons on both of the poles on Mars. The reason he wants to do it is because he wants to heat up the planet so humans can live there.
Steve Jobs was probably one of the leaders in phone and early personal computer technology when Apple was first started. Steve Jobs was born on February 24, 1955. Him and his friend Steve Wozniak was one of the first to start developing personal computers. They started in Steve’s house were they built the first Apple computer. Apple really took off at first they were making a lot of money but then windows came in and they were starting to make better computers than Apple. September 17, 1985 Jobs left Apple to pursue other things. After Jobs left Apple he went to NeXT computer then NeXT was bought by Apple. Jobs also worked with Pixar and Disney. Jobs then went back to Apple when NeXT was bought. In October 2003 Jobs was diagnosed with cancer and he refused to get treatment he was trying natural healing to beat it. Jobs died in October 5, 2011 from complications from his previously treated cancer. Now apple is producing really thin and fast computers and phones.
Bill Gates is the richest man in the world and he got his success from Microsoft. Gates was enrolled into a private preparatory school. He then started to code some small games like tic-tac-toe. He then graduated with an SAT score of 1590 out of 1600. He then enrolled at Harvard and spent most of his time on the computers but then the Intel 8080 cpu was released and Gates decided it was an opportunity to start his own company. He then started Microsoft and then launched windows. People said he was the kind of person who was only reachable by phone and would never return calls. On June 15, 2006 Gates said he would slowly transition out of his day to day work at Microsoft and continue his work in philanthropy. Now gates focuses on other projects and he also donates lots of his money to charity. Now Microsoft has added to there production with phones, Microsoft word, Xbox one, and things like windows 10.
