Donald Trump reminds the entire world he has no idea what 6G means
TL;DR
Donald Trump's public musings about 6G technology, including a bizarre comment about seeing deeper into skin, reveal his lack of understanding of the topic, as he admitted on live TV in front of industry leaders.
When business leaders spout buzzwords like "AI," "8K" and "5G," sometimes in the same sentence, we often get a sneaking suspicion they don't know what they mean! With President Donald Trump, there's no need to wonder: he clearly has no idea. "What does [6G] do? Give you a little bit deeper view into somebody's skin?" he mused today, live on TV, right in front of Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon, who did not bother to correct him.
Trump: So we're into 6G now. Yeesh. I was a leader on 5G, getting that done. What does that do? Give you a little bit deeper view into somebody's skin? I like the cameras of the old days.
