Seems like this Humane product has beaten Apple and Google to the punch even though they have the voice assistants for years

Because most voice assistants arent that good yet, and those companies already had products that basically maxed out the value of the voice assistants (watch/earbuds).

Humane has beaten other companies to the punch, if you count a flailing noodle arm as a "punch". This device clearly needs significantly more work on the ecosystem, accuracy of answers (it gave 2 wrong answers in the video), and actual input. The projector idea is absolutely terrible, and Im certain this will essentially end up a voice only device for the people that do buy it. The projector wont work outdoors at all, and even indoors, it looks terrible to actually use.
