Apoorv Shankar believes that in the very near future, humans will interact with technology through a series of approvals and rejections. AI agents will proactively come to us to complete tasks, and humans will say, “Yes, order that Uber,” or “No, don't get lunch from that spot.”
But if you get multiple pings from an AI agent throughout the day, taking out your phone to say yes or no every single time will be a “bottleneck,” he says. That's why he made the Aina Ring. It has a small display and a joystick-like button that lets you quickly accept or reject an AI agent's actions with your hands. Your phone can stay in your pocket.
