Mina Fahmi, CEO of Sandbar, recently shared insights into the development of the Stream ring, an innovative AI wearable capable of capturing whispered thoughts. Fahmi spoke with investor Toni Schneider at a TechCrunch event, discussing the creation of hardware that users genuinely want to wear. Schneider, known for backing successful companies like Fitbit, revealed his initial skepticism towards AI wearables until he witnessed Sandbar's unique approach.

A key aspect highlighted was the privacy implications of capturing thoughts through whispering, a feature that fundamentally alters user interaction and data security. This approach aims to differentiate Sandbar in a competitive market, potentially facing rivals like OpenAI's rumored device.
