Listen "Human(e)'s Encore"
Episode Synopsis
Humane, Alexa Plus, and the future of computingLast week Humane announced that HP was acquiring its team and technology, which formally marks the end of their AI pin product.We thought today would be a good time to dissect the news, but more importantly, we wanted to explore what the future of computing may look like. This is an area Grant has spent years thinking about, and he opens up by sharing thoughts on the directional arrows of progress within wearables more broadly, and how the history of computing offers clues as to how this next era will unfold. Hammad concludes the conversation with his thoughts on the hyperscalers and whether new startups will be able to create the next iPhone.This episode is brought to you by SAJJ.🔗 Show Resource Links HP is acquiring the Humane platform and team MKBHD’s Review of the Humane Pin Opinion: The Humane AI Pin never had a chance Amazon launches Alexa Plus General Magic – The Movie (trailer)🎙️ Podcast Links Spotify Apple Podcasts X (FKA Twitter) Subscribe🌀 About Motion BlurExploring what makes great companies and technologies work.
