Meet man who earned Rs 2453292820000 in just 24 hours! Could replace Elon Musk as world's richest; his name is..., net worth is Rs...
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is the richest person in the world boasting a net worth of $373 billion, however, Musk coveted title faces a serious challenge from Larry Ellison, the co-founder of Oracle who earned a whopping $28.4 billion (about Rs 24, 53,29,28,20,000) in just 24 hours on Tuesday. How Larry Ellison could replace Elon Musk as world's richest man?
According to Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Elon Musk's net worth has fallen by $59.4 billion this year, while Larry Ellison has jumped to the second spot on the list of world's richest people with a net worth of $289 billion, including making a staggering $28.4 billion in a single day on Tuesday.
At this rate, Larry Ellison could dethrone Elon Musk as the world's richest individual within a span of just three days, improbable it may seem. Currently, Musk has a lead of $84 billion over Ellison, but that could easily change within days if the Oracle founder continues his golden run.
Notably, the net worth of Larry Ellison has surged by a whopping $96.8 billion in this year so far. Who is Larry Ellison?
Larry Ellison is the co-founder of US multinational tech giant Oracle Corporation. The 80-year-old owns 41 percent of the company's shares, and his wealth has exponentially increased due to a recent surge in Oracle's stock prices. In June, Ellison's wealth surged by a whopping $41 billion in just two days, including $25 billion in a single day, as per Bloomberg.
Larry Ellison co-founded Oracle in 1977 as a database software company, and over the years, the firm has transformed into a global cloud computing powerhouse. Ellison, 80, currently serves at the Chairman and CTO at Oracle.
Interestingly, Larry Ellison is a close friend of Elon Musk, and a major investor in Tesla, having previously served on the company's board December 2018 to August 2022.
'I don't know how many people know this… but I am a close friend of Elon Musk and a big investor in Tesla,' Ellison revealed in a 2018 interview. The Oracle boss has also come to Musk's defense during several controversies involving the world's richest man.

Tesla Reclaims Top Spot In Monthly Imported Car Sales In South Korea
Seoul: US electric vehicle major Tesla reclaimed the top spot in South Korea's imported car market in July, driven by strong sales of its Model Y, industry data showed on Tuesday. According to the Korea Automobile Importers & Distributors Association (KAIDA), 27,090 imported passenger cars were newly registered last month, up 23.3 percent from 21,977 units the previous year, reports Yonhap news agency. KAIDA attributed the sales growth to improved supply conditions for certain brands compared with last year. Tesla topped the list with 7,357 units sold in July, reclaiming the No. 1 spot after losing it in June. The U.S. EV maker first topped the list in May. BMW followed with 6,490 units sold in July, while Mercedes-Benz ranked third with 4,472 units. Tesla's Model Y was the best selling model with 6,559 units sold, followed by the BMW 520 with 1,292 units and Tesla's Model 3 at 798. By fuel type, hybrids accounted for 49.7 percent of sales at 13,469 units, followed by EVs at 37.6 percent, gasoline models at 11.5 percent and diesel cars at 1.2 percent. Meanwhile, imported vehicle registrations in South Korea have surged 38-fold over the past three decades, driven by diversifying consumer tastes, an industry association said. Annual imported car registrations rose from just 6,921 units in 1995 to 263,288 last year, the Korea Automobile Importers and Distributors Association (KAIDA) said in a press release. "Imported brands will continue to offer diverse and differentiated options for Korean customers, as they have over the past 30 years," KAIDA Vice Chairman Jung Yoon-young said. In the first half of this year, imported car sales climbed 9.9 percent from a year earlier to 138,120 units, fueled by strong demand for German models and U.S. electric vehicle (EV) maker Tesla Inc. Three German automakers -- Volkswagen Group Korea, BMW Group Korea and Mercedes-Benz Korea -- sold a combined 84,211 vehicles in the January-June period, up 12 percent on-year. KAIDA's membership grew from eight companies in 1995 to 23 as of June this year, with vehicles now sold under 30 different brands. In March, Chinese EV maker BYD Co. joined the association as it seeks to expand its presence in Asia's fourth-largest economy. Imported brands made up 18.3 percent of South Korea's passenger vehicle market last year, up sharply from just 0.6 percent in 1995, the association said.

Grok's new AI image, video generator can even make NSFW content: What is it
Elon Musk-owned xAI has recently released an update for the Grok AI, introducing a new image and video generation tool called Grok Imagine with a 'spicy mode.' This tool essentially creates images and videos based on text prompts and can reportedly generate NSFW (not safe for work) content on a user's request. Grok Imagine is available now to Heavy and Premium+ subscribers on the Grok iOS app, and to Heavy users on the Android app. What is Grok Imagine? Grok Imagine combines generative AI with tools that convert text into images and transform those images into short video clips with audio. This approach is comparable to Midjourney's recently announced video-generation feature. Other companies in the AI space have also introduced similar capabilities — including Google's Veo 3 and Sora from OpenAI — which focus on generating original videos directly from text prompts. What is Grok Imagine's 'Spicy Mode'? According to a report by TechCrunch, the Grok Imagine tool includes a 'spicy mode' feature that enables users to generate 'sexually explicit content,' including 'partial female nudity.' The tool still enforces moderation boundaries. As per the report, many attempts to push the limits result in blurred or blocked visuals due to content restrictions. However, it was still possible to generate some semi-nude visuals during testing. How to use Grok Imagine Grok Imagine was first released exclusively through the Grok app on iOS. However, according to the DogeDesigner account on X — a source frequently shared by Elon Musk — the feature became available on Android on Monday for users subscribed to the SuperGrok Heavy tier. How to create images with Grok Imagine Enter a text-to-image prompt, upload an image, or activate voice mode by tapping 'Speak.' Grok will produce the image along with a few variations. Scroll down to continue generating more images automatically. Download or share the generated images. How to create videos with Grok Imagine Tap an image and select 'Make video.' Pick from the available styles: Custom, Spicy, Fun, or Normal. The video will be generated automatically and show up in the app. How to turn images into video with Grok Imagine Tap the photo icon with a plus sign at the bottom of the app. Select and upload an image from your device. The app will then generate the video automatically and display it.
