Looks like the upcoming "ENV PRO" is going to have the new BME668 sensor, which is awesome.

Im not sure how much the "first gas sensor with AI" thing is just marketing, but the specs and potential on the sensor are impressive. I hope M5stack supports the full thing (with its AI training capabilities)
"The gas sensor can detect Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) and other gases such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the part per billion (ppb) range.
Additionally to all features of the BME680, the BME688 has a gas scanner function. In standard configuration, the presence of VSCs is being detected as indicator for e.g. bacteria growth. And the gas scanner can be customized with respect to sensitivity, selectivity, data rate and power consumption as well. The BME AI-Studio tool enables customers to train the BME688 gas scanner on their specific application, like in home appliances, IoT products or Smart Home."
