The Bizarre
The Chinese tech incubator, GoGo Chicken, is a facial recognition and blockchain system for organic chickens.
Free-range chicks get GPS bracelets at first peep. Customers who pre-order can view their choice chick via mobile as well as track its diet and exercise in real-time. Madam X finds this Chick Check rather creepy.
The Fake
