Humane, which makes the not-great AI Pin, desires different firms to construct AI gadgets and devices that use its CosmOS working system, and it has launched a video that seems to indicate that the corporate already has it working in a automobile, TV, good speaker, and telephone.
However be aware that the video, based on Humane’s personal high-quality print, is for “illustrative functions solely” — it reveals “working prototypes” and a few “simulated experiences,” and the print says that each one “designs, options, and specs” are topic to alter. So don’t take it completely at face worth.
In a single instance, the video reveals an individual speaking to CosmOS of their automobile (with a blurred out emblem on the steering wheel) to show the warmth up at their home and work out what time individuals are coming over. They ask their (blurred out) good speaker a few guacamole recipe, and their TV about what number of targets a soccer participant onscreen has scored. The video additionally reveals CosmOS studying an e-mail on the particular person’s telephone and responding to a query about whether or not the particular person can attend a gathering.
For those who’ve been following latest AI hype, particularly round brokers, none of those examples ought to really feel notably novel — Humane desires to display that CosmOS is able to highly effective agent-like capabilities, and for firms to think about it as a doable spine for his or her gadgets. However the gadgets on this video aren’t Humane’s personal merchandise, and Humane clearly isn’t promising to make them. It’s constructing an SDK for others to take action.
That CosmOS SDK isn’t accessible publicly but — the firm’s web site solely says that it’s “coming quickly,” although you possibly can click on a button to “signal as much as construct with us,” which takes you to a type to fill out. Humane doesn’t point out any companions constructing gadgets that depend on CosmOS — the blurred-out logos on the automobile and good speaker recommend the corporate could haven’t gotten that far but. We’ve requested Humane if it may well share any examples.
