Top 100 Tech Trends in May

From Premium Ultralight Laptops to Hand-Worn Athlete Smart Displays

— May 25, 2024 — Tech
Artificial intelligence once again takes center stage in the May 2024 tech round-up as many brands showcase their new innovative offerings, designed to streamline customer experiences.

Artificial intelligence has seeped through all industries. Services like the AI Tattoo Generator, for example, aim to provide inspiration with an endless array of creative ideas. Elsewhere, Picarta boasts an AI image location search tool that unlocks the geographical origins of any photo with precision and ease. In the beauty industry, brands like the Perfect Corp. stand out with AI Hair Type Analysis tools that help consumers make decisions. The May 2024 tech round-up also features the Terra AI, a compass device by Modem Works and Panter & Tourron that helps users go on walks safely without their phones.
