You know we’re approaching peak fiat when venture capitalists have poured in $241 Million to a company whose website is https://hu.ma.ne who have produced a solution looking for a problem and hyped it up with the “AI” buzzword. Who the fuck wants a $700 wearable projector that operates like this?

The obvious low hanging fruit application for wearable AI is language translation on the fly, but then the ex-Apple marketeers in turtlenecks can’t make cool product videos and give ridiculous names to colour variations and fleece VCs with something practical like that.

Oh yeah I'm totally going to clip an internet connected "ai" camera to my chest and walk around all day.

For real, the extremely obvious answer to this UX nightmare is to just have some main “auto options” like translation, and making the thing controllable/configurable on your mobile. The projector and pointless gesture reading is going to have such high failure rate while simultaneously will be a battery drag. Just terrible foresight and design thinking for a promising concept.
