Humane officially launches the AI Pin, its OpenAI-powered wearable
The AI Pin is powered by a Snapdragon processor — though it’s not clear which one — and you control it with a combination of voice control, a camera, gestures, and a small built-in projector. The Pin itself weighs about 34 grams, and the “battery booster” adds another 20. The built-in camera takes 13-megapixel photos and will capture video as well after a software update. Unlike a device like the Rewind Pendant, it’s not meant to be always recording, and it’s not even listening for a wake word. You’ll have to activate the device manually by tapping and dragging on the touchpad, and the Pin’s “Trust Light” blinks to let you and supposedly everyone else know it’s collecting data.

”Sverige behöver kopplas upp – blir omsprunget”
Sverige håller på att bli omsprunget när det gäller digitalisering. Det skriver civilminister Erik Slottner (KD) och representanter för Tidöpartierna i Sydsvenskan. De lyfter att både Finland och Danmark rankas högre på EU:s index för digital ekonomi och samhälle. Men Sverige borde ligga i framkant, tycker de: ”Först och främst behöver Sverige kopplas upp. Ett fungerande bredband är lika viktigt som ett bra vägnät.” De lyfter att regeringen satsar 1,2 miljarder kronor på bredbandsprojekt nästa år.
