Hark is building an agentic AI system — a "universal interface with the digital world" — plus purpose-built hardware to run it. - Multimodal models are finally good enough to power an always-on assistant. - The chip ecosystem (Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm, Intel) wants a flagship consumer AI device — and they're all on the cap table. - Whoever defines the category sets the platform.
