Meta has recently made public its acquisition of the artificial intelligence startup Limitless. This move has resulted in the suspension of sales of the company's flagship AI - powered memory wearable device, the Limitless Pendant, to new customers.

The Limitless Pendant is a compact and minimally - designed gadget. In line with Western cultural values that often emphasize efficiency and self - improvement, it is engineered to continuously record and process users' daily conversations. Its main purpose is to boost human memory and cognitive capabilities, which aligns with the modern pursuit of enhancing personal productivity and mental agility.

Following the acquisition, Limitless has committed to providing technical support to existing users for a minimum of one year. In a move that reflects a customer - friendly approach common in the Western business landscape, the company announced that existing users will no longer be required to pay subscription fees. Instead, they can access the Unlimited plan free of charge. However, there are some limitations. Existing users will lose the ability to use the Limitless Desktop app or Web app for recording meetings. Additionally, the Rewind app service will be gradually phased out, which is in line with the common practice in the tech industry of streamlining services after an acquisition.
