#2I love the idea but what are the health risks on having stuck in your ear 12-16 hours a day?

People wear hearing aids for similar periods of time or longer depending on type.

#4I like the idea of an assistant in your ear, but this thing is vaporwear. They do not have the hardware expertise to build it, and they didn't even try to write the software in-house. "It is tough to make hardware, [...] when you ship it, it has to be right." Yes, very much this. It's hard to overestimate just how difficult shipping a quality hardware/software integration is, especially something this complex.

#5Sort of the idea behind the Moto Mono:

Although it didn't really take off.

#8Is it just me, or do other people also have a problem keeping these sort of devices in their ear?
When I wear earbud headphones they always fall out unless I keep my head really still.

I used to have exactly the same problem until I found that the shape of headphones bundled with Xperia Z works for me - doesn't fell out and feels comfortable. I believe it's a matter of testing different models.

#10"Having this device in your ear -- maybe connected with something visual, who knows? -- can enable people without any formal training to do things they couldn't do before. Someone untrained could be shown how to build a house, for example, and it will protect them when they are doing it."
There's no reason that stuff couldn't be done with your Android/iPhone and bluetooth headphones. I think this project is cool, and I hope they ship something good, but honestly if the future is all kinds of speech interfaces the tech to make that possible is already available.
