A sextillion is one followed by 21 zeros—that's orders of magnitude greater than the number of stars in the Milky Way. He recently updated the total to 13 sextillion. As modern graphics and artificial intelligence chips each contain billions of transistors the total continues to build at an astronomical rate.

Then, you finally reach Millinillion. Repeat with those numbers to reach Billinillion. After that comes a Trillinillion, Quadrillinillion, Quintillinillion, Sextillinillion, Septillinillion, Octillinillion, Nonillinillion, and on...
