Humane's Ai Pin demo video has been updated to fix some embarrassing inaccuracies proclaimed by the wearable.
After Humane debuted the much-hyped screenless Ai Pin,periscope porno izlemek virüs bula??r m? internet sleuths quickly pointed out some mistakes in its responses. Ai Pin incorrectly said the best places to watch the solar eclipse on April 8, 2024 are in Exmouth, Australia and East Timor, when in fact, the best locations are in North America.
It also misleadingly portrayed a handful of almonds as having 15 grams of protein, but in reality, 60 almonds would amount to that much protein, according to X (formerly Twitter) user Nate Young.

Space and almond nerds kept Humane honest
Thanks to the space and almond detectives out there, some of the hype around the Ai Pin has been deflated. You'd think someone on the team would have double-checked the device's answers. Especially when Ai Pin has bold ambitions of replacing the smartphone by using voice command instead of a screen interface.
The implication here is if the AI model powering the device confidently gives you the wrong answer — and there's no screen or other way of fact-checking — it can't be relied on for important tasks. It's reminiscent of Google's blunder with its AI chatbot Bard and its inaccuracies about the James Webb Space Telescope. In other words, not a great first impression.
The new, updated demo
In the updated demo video, Ai Pin says one of the best places to watch the solar eclipse is in Nazas, which is located in Durango, Mexico. It also addressed the almond confusion by keeping the original footage of Humane co-founder Imran Chaudhri holding up a handful of almonds, but clarifying that half a cup of almonds amounts to 15 grams of protein.
So while Chaudhri is holding less than half a cup of almonds, Ai Pin is now technicallyright in its protein calculation.

On the company's Discord server, Humane's head of new media Sam Sheffer said, the video "was created using pre-release software" and the issues have since been resolved. "These issues (and the many more we find) between now and when customers get devices will be fixed as quickly as we discover them," Sheffer continued.
The issue has been resolved, but Humane learned a hard lesson. When it comes to solar eclipses and almonds, the internet has receipts.
