However, it's unclear what the future holds for Humane, as the company has recently reduced the price of its Ai Pin from $700 to $500. The demo video for CosmOS has been perceived by some as a sales pitch, suggesting that Humane may be seeking a company interested in acquiring it and repurposing its software. Despite these challenges, Humane has substantial funding, with more than $230 million raised to date.
Key takeaways:
- Humane, a San Francisco-based gadget maker, has released a new operating system called CosmOS, which is designed to improve the functionality of tech devices.
- The new operating system is based on the one that powers Humane's Ai Pin, a device that has seen disappointing sales and reviews.
- CosmOS is a voice assistant that can understand complex queries and interact with other apps and services, potentially offering a more advanced version of existing voice assistants like Amazon's Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple's Siri.
- The company's demo video suggests that Humane may be looking for a company interested in acquiring it and using its software in their own products.
