The $99 Limitless pendant became available for pre-orders on Monday; it'll ship later this year. The AI-powered Limitless pendant, unveiled Monday, can be worn like a necklace or clipped onto your clothing with its magnetic clasp. The Limitless pendant is available in eight colors. For $20 a month, you get unlimited audio storage and unlimited AI functionality. Some other AI wearables, like Humane's AI pin, have been panned by reviewers; they'll no doubt be keeping tabs when the Limitless pendant comes out.

A couple of days ago, startup founder Dan Siroker set his sights on meeting new investors. Siroker closed the process with 170 bids to sift through. Siroker told Business Insider this week that he isn't actively fundraising. Advertisement"When deals get hot, there is extreme interest," Ben Lerer, managing partner of Lerer Hippeau, an early-stage venture firm, told Business Insider's Ben Bergman late last year.

☆ Sam Altman enters his power era

A failed coup at OpenAI saw Sam Altman return as CEO and stronger than ever. The botched coup of OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman has seemingly reinforced his power. Even more astonishingly, Altman lacks the one obvious lever of power that keeps founder-CEOs like Mark Zuckerberg in power: controlling shares in his company. "He's really, really, really good at both being understood, but also understanding and asking thoughtful questions." They acted in their best interest," one OpenAI staffer posted on Blind, a social network site where employees can post anonymously.

The CEO of Rewind AI made his own 360-degree performance reviews public to be transparent. Some criticized his communication style while others praised his resourcefulness and leadership. The CEO of Andreessen Horowitz-backed startup Rewind AI has taken the unusual step of publicly sharing his own performance reviews in an effort to demonstrate the level of transparency at his company. Dan Siroker, who previously founded A/B testing company Optimizely, posted his last five 360 reviews, which include feedback from colleagues, in a tweet on Thursday. One of the Rewind AI chief's reviews suggested that he needed to change his tone when communicating with workers on Slack.
