Humane’s Co-Founders Want to Cure Your Screen Addiction With an AI Gadget

Let’s face it, you’re addicted to your phone, and Imran Chaudhri and Bethany Bongiorno may be partially to blame. The tech power couple met while working at Apple, where they helped create everything from the Mac, to the iPhone, to the iPad, to the Apple Watch.

“We gave you some tools,” Chaudhri says with a laugh when I jokingly blame him for humanity’s current screen obsession.

Now, they may have the solution to a problem of their own making.

In 2016, Chaudhri and Bongiorno left Apple to set out on their own, ultimately launching their company, Humane, in a bid to undo some of the app addiction that has made many of us retreat into our glowing screens. Humane’s first device, the Ai Pin, arriving in customers’ hands in a matter of days, is a clothing-worn device that relies on voice-based artificial intelligence and a laser projector to beam information onto the palm of your hand. It’s almost a smartphone replacement, though the first-generation model is not fully there yet.

The 10 Best Revenge Movies, Ranked From Worst to Best

Filmmakers love little more than a revenge story. Whether it be classics like 1974's Death Wish or more contemporary blockbusters like Dev Patel's new directorial debut, Monkey Man, the ancient and deeply human desire for revenge has been at the center of countless movies over the past 100 years. That doesn't mean some films haven't treaded that particular thematic and narrative terrain better than others, though.

On the contrary, as the revenge thriller genre has grown in popularity throughout the years, a number of fan-favorite and iconic movies have earned different places for themselves in cinema history. With all that in mind, and in honor of Monkey Man's recent release, here are Inverse's picks for the 10 best revenge films of all time.
