LATEST DEVELOPMENTS
HUMANE
Source: Humane
The Rundown: An AI startup founded by ex-Apple designers called Humane unveiled the ‘Ai Pin,’ a mini projector that attaches to clothing and aims to replace smartphones.
Details:
Humane has been stealing talent from Apple since 2018- while keeping its product a secret
Designed to clip to a breast pocket and aims to use voice to provide summaries of emails, language translation, and calendar invites
Features a camera and computer vision software that can recognize objects, like food nutrition labels
Can project an interactive interface onto nearby surfaces, such as the user's hand or a table
Collaborating with Qualcomm to develop the internal hardware
Noteworthy: We last saw this device demoed at the TED conference in April, and everyone was freaking out. Will it really replace smartphones, though? We’ll see.

TOGETHER WITH INNOVATING WITH AI
The Rundown: Launching an AI product is hard. But Innovating with AI launched two new AI products in 1 month. They created a free video lesson and cheat sheet to help you do it yourself throughout the process.
You’ll learn the following:
The AI Business Model Matrix: How to combine your skills, interests, and advanced AI tools in unique and exciting ways
The AI Venture Mindset: How to use rapid experimentation and industry uncertainty to your advantage
The AI Marketing Cookbook: Where to share and promote your new AI-powered business for maximum growth

The Rundown: Elon Musk and Twitter have instituted viewing limitations, forcing non-paying users to view a maximum of 600 posts per day due to data scraping by AI companies.
Details:
AI startups, such as ChatGPT, have been collecting Twitter data without permission leaving Elon unimpressed
Unverified accounts can now only view 600 posts per day, new unverified accounts can view 300, while verified accounts can see up to 6,000 posts.
Viewing limitations will soon increase to 8,000 tweets for verified users, 800 for unverified, and 400 for new unverified accounts
Why it matters: It seems like Elon is doing everything in his power to stop AI companies from stealing his precious data. Or maybe Elon just wants us Twitter trolls to touch some grass again.
MICROSOFT
Source: Microsoft
The Rundown: Microsoft has begun rolling out early previews of their AI-powered personal assistant for Windows 11 to insiders in the Dev Channel.
Key points:
To use Copilot, users must have Windows Build 23493 or higher in the Dev Channel and Microsoft Edge version 115.0.1901.150 or higher
Allows users to issue commands and have the AI automatically modify settings or perform actions in the operating system
While not replacing the search feature, Windows Copilot takes over from Cortana as the built-in Windows personal assistant.
Why it matters: Microsoft is completely dominating the AI space. First, they made a major comeback through Bing (who would’ve thought), and now they are integrating AI into the OS.
