Humane, a new wearable AI camera?

There is not much known about it yet, but Humane should be launched sometime in the coming months. Possibly a new type of camera that uses artificial intelligence. The idea seems to be that you can take photos without being 'absent'.


The company was founded in 2018 by Imran Chaudhri and Bethany Bongiorno, two former Apple employees. The start-up has now raised over 230 million dollars in investment.

The idea seems to be that you carry a device with you that continuously records. Humane's artificial intelligence would then automatically process the footage. This means you can get results in different styles, such as documentary, sports, street and landscape, in both photos and video.

The company would thus be able to preserve the moments you want to relive.

You could also ask the device questions about what you see. For example, which car is in front of you, what kind of building is somewhere, and so on. There are also ideas to have the device make payments for you, for example.

It sounds like something privacy advocates will not be enthusiastic about. Personally, I do find it quite interesting.

We will have to wait a little longer to see when the new product is announced.

    Comparisons with those Google glasses come to mind. And those glasses ultimately didn't become such a huge success either.
    I hope this isn't pie-in-the-sky stuff, mainly intended to fleece investors out of their money.
