What’s the context?
Humane’s Ai Pin and other AI wearables are difficult to recycle, threatening to worsen the world’s global e-waste problem.
Honestly, we need laws that require cradle-to-grave costs be included in the consumer price. Consumer recycling fees/taxes are a good start, but ultimately it needs to be the corporations providing the products that are liable for the disposal of their products.
And when I say that, I mean personal liability for C-suite execs. None of this “our company failed and went bankrupt, but the CEOs made off like bandits” nonsense.
How many where sold, can’t be that many, right?
Yeah, it’s probably just a few thousand. There’s probably a million things that are equally difficult to recycle being bought every day.
Every influencer under the sun bought one to make a cookie-cutter video about it.
