In the age of artificial intelligence, when you can tell the computer what you want, and it builds it for you, something seems missing. Maybe a wearable input device that would let you interact, code and build using AI, and you wouldn’t even have to move a muscle. Introducing the Monako Glass, the world’s first heads-up display smart glasses designed for vibe coding. It comes with wave guide display, camera, speakers, and bone conduction microphone.Human and AI interaction is taking new turns with every passing day. Nothing is constant, it...

Fashion brands from Coach to Dior are piling into literature as books become key status symbols and markers of knowledge and taste in an age of visual overload and AI slop. Which strategies have substance?Books have become fashion’s latest status symbol, with literary knowledge increasingly signalling taste, intellect and cultural capital in an era of social media overload and AI-generated content.Brands are turning to literature to create deeper storytelling, offline experiences and cultural differentiation as consumers seek more meaningfu...

Once nearly synonymous with AI, it just got surpassed in valuation by Anthropic. Now it looks like it’s also going to get beaten to the IPO starting line.Back in late 2024, it seemed unlikely that OpenAI—then the clear leader in AI—could lose its position. ChatGPT was becoming a generic term for AI tools, much like “Kleenex” or “Band-Aid.” But the idea that OpenAI could become the “Lyft” to another company’s “Uber” is now starting to look more plausible. At the time, AI chatbots appeared largely indistinguishable. Products like C...

Companies Are Turning The Tiny Compasses In Phones Into Full Navigation Alternatives.GPS struggles deep inside buildings and can be jammed or spoofed in conflict zones, which has renewed interest in alternatives that work indoors, outdoors, underwater, or underground. One promising approach uses the Earth’s magnetic field. For years, companies have combined magnetic maps with technologies like Bluetooth or RFID for indoor positioning. Now firms including AstraNav, Oriient, and SysNav say magnetometers built into modern mobile devices are be...

With Hypershell’s X Ultra S and Similar Personal Exoskeletons, AI Takes On The Great Outdoors.AI is entering the physical realm in a big way. Case in point: I spent Mother’s Day e-hiking with bionic leg boosters.I strapped my two-year-old in a hiking carrier, and went for a walk up a winding dirt trail. The robotic hip motors whirred and a mechanical force tugged at my quads.As the incline got steeper, I opened the companion app on my phone and pressed “Boost.”My stride quickened. The whirring got louder. As the AI marched me toward the...

Google 특허 : 멀티모달 언어 모델 기반 로봇 제어 시스템과 피지컬 AI 조작의 직관성 확보자연어 명령과 물리 환경 데이터의 실시간 결합 메커니즘 수립: 카메라나 모션 디텍터 등 센서로 수집한 주변 환경 데이터와 사용자의 텍스트 명령을 단일 임베딩 스페이스로 통합하여 신경망 모델이 즉각 처리 가능한 형태로 변환.사전 정의된 키워드 한계를 탈피한 자연어 기반 로봇 제어권 확보: 사용자가 고정된 명령어 셋에 구속되지 않고 일상적인 자연어를 통해 AI 로봇을 자유롭게 조작하고 상호작용할 수 있도록 편의성을 획기적으로 개선.인간 작업자와의 근접 협업 시 발생하는 안전...

The tech allows a robot to operate based on both language commands and environmental surroundings.Are you ready for robotic coworkers? Google may be able to make collaborating with them a little simpler: The company is seeking to patent a system for “controlling robots using multi-modal language models” that essentially allows the machines to operate based on both language commands and environmental surroundings. To do this, Google’s system gathers environmental data collected via sensors, such as cameras or motion detectors, and textual...

AI’s Next Enterprise Advantage May Come Less from Automation Itself Than from How Firms Redesign Work Around Human Agency.Microsoft’s 2026 Work Trend Index Annual Report argues that the real shift underway in enterprise AI is not simply the spread of better tools. It is the emergence of a new operating model built around people, agents, and the systems that connect them. The report’s core claim is that as AI agents take on more execution, human agency expands. Workers gain more room to direct the work, set intent, exercise judgment, and o...

Triomics, a startup building an AI-powered platform to help oncologists and administrative staff automate data-heavy tasks like clinical trial matching and appointment prep, has raised $22 million in Series B funding.The round was led by Battery Ventures, with participation from returning backers Nexus Venture Partners, Lightspeed, Y Combinator, and others.The good news is that oncology breakthroughs are keeping patients alive longer. That welcome trend, however, is creating dense, multi-year medical records that take healthcare staff a long...
