Humane, which makes the not-great AI Pin, desires different corporations to construct AI units 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 cellphone.
However observe that the video, in accordance with Humane’s personal tremendous print, is for “illustrative functions solely” — it reveals “working prototypes” and a few “simulated experiences,” and the print says that every 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 determine what time persons are coming over. They ask their (blurred out) good speaker a couple of guacamole recipe, and their TV about what number of targets a soccer participant onscreen has scored. The video additionally reveals CosmOS studying an electronic mail on the particular person’s cellphone and responding to a query about whether or not the particular person can attend a gathering.
For those who’ve been following current AI hype, particularly round brokers, none of those examples ought to really feel significantly novel — Humane desires to display that CosmOS is able to highly effective agent-like capabilities, and for corporations to think about it as a doable spine for his or her units. However the objects 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 corporate’s web site solely says that it’s “coming quickly,” although you may click on a button to “signal as much as construct with us,” which takes you to a kind to fill out. Humane doesn’t point out any companions constructing units that depend on CosmOS — the blurred-out logos on the automobile and good speaker counsel the corporate could haven’t gotten that far but. We’ve requested Humane if it might share any examples.
