This is an actual problem that should be addressed rather than turning it into a sparring match (no hate here, just trying to create positive impact)

I know Ai Pin isn't supposed to have navigation yet but it totally got me to and from the DMV today.

Important to note that CNs aren’t always “callouts” against you - they can also just provide interesting context. I thought it was pretty interesting, accurate, and funny, so I’d say it’s doing its job.

On latest update that was release yesterday (1.1.4)

Even if Google or Apple release OS-level AI tomorrow,

is still going to be a winner.
Here are just a few reasons why.

@imranchaudhri
Super important point. Big Tech will soon build out advanced, OS-level AI, and so
@humane
will need an additional value-add to justify the hardware switching cost.
A few thoughts...
(1) Trust/Privacy. Big Tech has promised privacy many times and never fully delivered. Humane

As a beta user, I can attest that this update makes a night-and-day difference.
Get ready to experience the rebirth of the Ai Pin 💪
Today the team had the go/no-go on our 1.1.4 release after a successful beta period.
Very excited to say it was a go and we were able to start the phased rollout to customers today. We will take it slow, monitor, and push incrementally to more folks over the next 10 days.

Woah. Guys. 🙌

I thought this video was funny bc it's just someone picking up the Ai Pin several times...
But on second thought, it really showcases how good the device looks in your living space and with other accessories!

Dynamic UI ✨
Ai Pin fetches information from the internet and composes it into a UI that makes sense contextually.
i.e. these displays are not "coded" by employees, explicitly.
Imran gives us a few examples: a flight, a sports game score, and a stock price.

Tip to make your Ai Pin way better at recalling and updating notes: create your notes in list or object format!
Example list...
Title: "Favorite foods"
- [ ] tacos
- [ ] sushi
- [ ] pizza
...
Example object...
Title: "D&D Modifiers for Thorin Oakenshield"
- Strength: 3

Quick actions will optionally replace translation as the two-finger gesture.
Initial options will be:

The more powerful the models get, the more your Ai Pin commands will resemble full-fledged apps.
The future is a future of bespoke software.
Had some fun creating software experiences with Ai Pin and CosmOS.
Just the beginning of what will be possible when we can all create personalized “apps” on the fly.

A few notes regarding
@humane
's new article in light of
@openai
's announcement today.
1) CosmOS is built to be model-agnostic, meaning it should be able to leverage GPT-4o (and similar upcoming models).
2) Ai Pin is privacy-first, meaning it's not listening for wake words.
We just published an article on CosmOS, our operating system for the AI era. Our system spans from device internals to all LLMs and to any API in between. Let's highlight some key excerpts in the thread below. 1/8

Two common Ai Pin failure modes and how to handle:
1) "The server took too long to respond... can you try again with more context?"
How to handle: Try asking your pin something trivial that it can answer on-device (like the current time or battery level), and then try your

Tried it. Really like the format of the response "websites" but twwo main things:

(2) I like Perplexity's follow-up question functionality. You should have something similar.
