📝 Humane Exes Start Fact-Checking Startup

News of the Day

As Humane grapples with challenges in the AI hardware space, two top employees have departed to start their own venture. Former Strategic Partnerships Lead Brooke Hartley Moy and Head of Product Engineering Ken Kocienda have launched Infactory, a fact-checking search engine that diverges from the hardware focus of their previous employer. Infactory aims to leverage AI for natural language interfaces while sourcing information directly from trusted resources, avoiding the pitfalls of generative AI hallucinations. Targeting enterprise clients such as newsrooms and research facilities, Infactory will offer subscription-based access to accurate data comparisons. Despite the tumult at Humane, including layoffs and a potential sale, Moy and Kocienda emphasize that their decision was driven by a broader vision for their new startup. Infactory is expected to launch in the coming months.

This cannabis startup pioneered “rapid onset” gummies

Most people prefer to smoke cannabis but that isn’t an option if you’re at work or in public.

That’s why we were so excited when we found out about Mood’s new Rapid Onset THC Gummies. They can take effect in as little as 5 minutes without the need for a lighter, lingering smells or any coughing.

Nobody will ever know you’re enjoying some THC.

We recommend you try them out because they offer a 100% money-back guarantee. And for a limited time, you can receive 20% off with code FIRST20.
