May 1, 2024 No Comments Technology , , , , , , ,

Harvesting fish is an inherently messy business, what with being at sea, the slippery creatures wriggling around and everything else. Shinkei is working to improve it with an automated system that more humanely and reliably dispatches the fish, resulting in what could be a totally different seafood economy. On many fishing vessels, fish are left [...]read moreShinkei’s humane, quality-preserving fish-harvesting tech could upend the seafood industry

The Humane AI Pin is lost in translation

April 19, 2024 No Comments Technology , , ,

Of all the things the Humane AI Pin promised, I was most intrigued by translation. In a demo, a man speaks to Humane co-founder Imran Chaudhri in Spanish. The AI Pin automatically translates it to English. Chaudhri replies in English. Again, the AI Pin translates his words back into Spanish. There are notable pauses when [...]read moreThe Humane AI Pin is lost in translation

Don’t blame MKBHD for the fate of Humane AI and Fisker

Humane AI raised more than $230 million before it even shipped a product. And when it finally released its Ai Pin – which costs $699 plus a $24 monthly subscription – pretty much every tech reviewer came to the same disappointing realization: this much-hyped product, which promises to disrupt the smartphone’s dominance, is not very [...]read moreDon’t blame MKBHD for the fate of Humane AI and Fisker

The Humane AI Pin worked better than I expected — until it didn’t

Look, I’m a Humane AI Pin doubter as much as the next person. And I still think the wearable, AI-powered assistant suffers from a case of this-thing-could-have-been-an-app. But I finally got to spend a little face-to-face time with the pin this morning, and you know what? It’s a darn cool gadget. It’s just buried under [...]read moreThe Humane AI Pin worked better than I expected — until it didn’t

Humane pushes Ai Pin ship date to mid-April

February 24, 2024 No Comments Technology , , , , ,

Hardware is difficult, to paraphrase a famous adage. First-generation products from new startups are notoriously so, regardless of how much money and excitement you’ve managed to drum up. Given all that, it’s likely few are too surprised that Humane’s upcoming Ai Pin has been pushed back a bit, from March to “mid-April,” per a new [...]read moreHumane pushes Ai Pin ship date to mid-April
