HUMANE

šŸ“±Humaneā€™s $699 AI-Powered Projector Replaces Your Phone

After months of hype and teases, Humane revealed its first device, the ā€œAi Pin,ā€ a small wearable device that projects apps onto surfaces and utilizes user hand gestures to signal commands.

Key Details:
  • The ā€œAi Pinā€ is a square device that magnetically clips to your clothes, collecting data through an on-board camera and several motion sensors to track and record user environments. The device is powered by Qualcommā€™s Snapdragon processor and leverages AI models for seamless voice-based commands.

  • Humane Founder Imran Chaudhri explained: ā€œAi Pin is the embodiment of our vision to integrate AI into the fabric of daily life, enhancing our capabilities without overshadowing our humanity.ā€

  • The ā€œAi Pin,ā€ a charger, and two battery boosters cost $699. Humaneā€™s $24 monthly subscription plan includes a phone number and cell data through T-Mobile.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • The mini-projector features a camera, computer vision software, and a voice recognizer. This device scans objects, summarizes emails, and translates languages.

  • The ā€œAi Pinā€ attempts to provide ā€œambient computingā€ at scaleā€”the seamless integration of technology into our surroundings to automate tasks and enhance our daily lives.

AMAZON

šŸ“¦Amazonā€™s Olympus AI Model Progress

Amazon is investing millions in training a massive Large Language Model (LLM) called Olympus to rival OpenAIā€™s ChatGPT.

Key Details:
  • Amazonā€™s Olympus model contains 2 trillion parameters, while OpenAIā€™s GPT-4 possesses one trillion, making Olympus the largest AI model ever trained.

  • The project is led by former Head of Alexa Rohit Prasad, now Amazonā€™s Head Scientist for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI): AI models capable of performing human cognitive abilities when faced with unfamiliar tasks.

  • Amazon believes homegrown, state-of-the-art models could provide a competitive edge for its AWS cloud-computing offerings.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • Amazonā€™s previous LLM labeled Titan was delayed following ChatGPTā€™s impressive launch, which Amazon executives believed was ā€œfar superiorā€ to their model.

  • These large models enable AI tools to learn from massive datasets and generate human-like responses. Training these models is expensive and requires greater computing power. So, Amazon is reducing investments in the fulfillment and transportation sector of the retail business.
