Amazon to buy startup focused on AI wearables
FILE PHOTO: Amazon logo is seen in this illustration created on February 16, 2025. REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration/File Photo SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -Amazon has reached a deal to buy San Francisco-based Bee, a startup making an artificial intelligence-enabled bracelet to listen in on and transcribe conversations. Bee's $50 wristband can analyze and distill what it records to make summaries, to-do lists or other tasks. Amazon confirmed the deal on Tuesday following a post on LinkedIn by Bee CEO and co-founder Maria de Lourdes Zollo. The deal has not yet closed and Amazon declined to provide terms. A spokesperson said Amazon will work with Bee to give users more control over the devices, which are set to automatically transcribe audio but can be muted. "We imagined a world where AI is truly personal, where your life is understood and enhanced by technology that learns with you,' said Zollo in her post. She did not immediately respond to a query on Tuesday. It was not Amazon's first foray into wearables. The Seattle online retailer marketed a line of wrist health trackers called Halo but ultimately killed the project in 2023. It also has a line of smart glasses embedded with Amazon's virtual assistant, Alexa, under its Echo brand. ChatGPT parent OpenAI bought former Apple designer Jony Ive's AI device startup called io for about $6.5 billion. Other startups have made early attempts at AI wearables, with mixed results. In her post, Zollo thanked Amazon devices executive Panos Panay, suggesting Bee would join his group when the deal closes. Much of Amazon's AI development is being conducted in its Amazon Web Services unit. Bee was founded in 2022. (Reporting by Greg Bensinger in San Francisco; Editing by Matthew Lewis)

Inside the EU's Anti-Coercion Instrument as bloc prepares sweeping response to Trump's tariff threat
BRUSSELS, July 23 — A growing number of European Union member states, including Germany, are considering using wide-ranging 'anti-coercion' measures targeting US services if the EU cannot reach a trade deal with US President Donald Trump, EU diplomats say. Here are details of the bloc's Anti-Coercion Instrument, which took effect at the end of 2023 and hitherto has never been used, as it is seen by many as a 'nuclear option' that is ideally meant as a deterrent. Possible measures The ACI allows the 27-nation EU to retaliate against third countries that put economic pressure on member countries to change their policies, and offers far wider scope for action than just counter-tariffs on US exports. The ACI has a 10-point list of possible measures against Trump's threat of a 30 per cent tariff on EU imports by August 1. As well as tariffs on goods, the ACI tools include curbs on imports or exports of goods such as through quotas or licences. For public tenders in the bloc, worth some €2 trillion (RM9.7 trillion) per year, there are two possibilities. Bids, such as for construction or defence procurement, could be excluded if US goods or services make up more than 50 per cent of the potential contract. Alternatively, a penalty score adjustment could be attached to US bids. The ACI could also lead to measures to affect services in which the US has a trade surplus with the EU, including from digital services providers Amazon, Microsoft, Netflix or Uber. Measures could also curb foreign direct investment from the United States, which is the world's largest investor in the EU. Further measures could include restrictions on protection of intellectual property rights, on access to financial services markets and on the ability to sell chemicals or food in the EU. The EU is supposed to select measures that are likely to be most effective to stop the coercive behaviour of a third country and potentially to repair injury. How does the EU invoke the ACI? The ACI was proposed in 2021 as a response to EU member criticism that the first Trump administration and China had used trade as a political tool. China had targeted Lithuania, according to Lithuanian officials, after it allowed Taiwan to set up a de facto embassy in Vilnius. The law gives the European Commission up to four months to examine possible cases of coercion. If it finds a foreign country's measures constitute coercion, it puts this to EU members, which have another eight to 10 weeks to confirm the finding. To confirm, a qualified majority of EU members is required — a higher bar to hurdle than for applying retaliatory tariffs. The Commission would normally then consult with the foreign country in an effort to stop the coercion. If that fails, then within six months it can adopt EU response measures, again subject to a vote by EU members. These should enter force within three months. The whole process could take a year, but could be sped up. — Reuters
