Google's Vision for wearable intelligence

Welcome to the mid-week issue of Codes of Culture.

Things are moving so fast these days. An investor I was with this week mentioned he wouldn’t invest in any new AI startups because there are so many new updates launching with the big tech companies that it wipes out many newcomers before they have even started. It left me feeling a bit shaken. What do you think? Any AI start ups on your radar that will make the cut?

This week’s big news comes from Google I/O conference where they announced so many exciting new developments. A new AI-powered virtual try-on, a push into smart eyewear with Kering and Gentle Monster and how it will compete with Sora, launching a new AI filmmaking tool, Flow.

More on that below, and other beauty, fashion, art news with the 10 things on our radar this week!
