Besides the features that require a camera, what can the AI pin actually do that the Apple Watch can't
So excited for the kobo clara color.
The Ai pin might be weird, but I've got more questions about David's mug tree behind his sofa 🧐
Bad reviews from people who make money being on your screen
3 is generous, it doesnt consistently work = 0.
Oh. My. God. 4/10. Your justifications for the score makes no sense, i especially like the ”it’s a startup” one. Is this a product, or a company review?
My wife will confirm I'm into useless gadgets. Even I can't figure out the point of an AI pin. I have a smart watch and earbuds with smart assistant. Why would one need a pin instead of just making the smart assistant better? If the solution is better software, why do I need a separate piece of hardware?
Rather than a laser projector, it should just use a smart watch as display and input. That would be way easier AND cheaper. The device should also work with your phone rather than require a cell data plan.
On copyrights, I found a book with a photo of mine on the cover, when contacted the publisher was sure that if a photo was found on the net it was free… seriously, WTH!
But the real question is, beef or bust? We need the hypecheck
FINALLY, calling a Spade a Spade 0:58:00
“She literally just laughed” 🥴
Several years ago (possibly over a decade): Microsoft demoed a product that would hang around your neck and do exactly this. It was absolutely awesome, way ahead of its time, never released, and probably never worked, but was AWESOME! I can never remember what it was called but think about it every time I hear about the Humane pin.
Serious question – why not just clip your Apple Watch to your chest and use Siri? …I have used Siri to create notes, calendar events, set alarms, send messages…. most of the things he does in the review.
I really want to see more devices out there but, I just don't get the Pin. Most of the examples of things to do in the review are things, I do with a few taps on my phone. Smart phones are actually really good at solving a huge range of issues / challenges. Also, I don't want others to hear what I am adding to my shopping list… 🤷🏽♂
21:03 no David, I disagree with you. This in fact should be the episode that you sent to Webby.
God dam Americans will find a way to use any measuring system except the metric system. What is 2 Arthurs nilay?!?!
Having video of your episodes it’s a completely different experience than just audio. Even though I enjoy The Verge’s content, I can’t ever listen to more than 30-40 min of the podcast episodes because ideas seem to be all over the place, and changing multiple subjects during the episodes just loses me. But with video I stay longer and are more interested in watching you interact with one another than just listening.
They literally invented v1 of the Star Trek communicator, and people are like ‘meh’
So is ‘the good version’ of this just a set of AirPods connected to an iPhone?
I've been using the BOOX color e-readers this past year and it rules so much. Excited to see it rolling out elsewhere finally.
It’s just not acceptable to ship a product like this, which barely works. Honestly, it’s actually more expensive to do this, because it hurts the brand, and this is a completely new brand. People are now not going to trust any future iteration, even if it blows V1 out of the water.
David, I completely understand the love hate relationship with this thing. I still have a Newton. It sits on my desk as a beloved but fatality flawed relic of the past. It didn’t work well, but I loved it!
Kos, or some say Kosm
You all have a cognitive distortion related to synthetic data. As the quality of output increases, functionally its the effect of more human level quality content being generated, if we accept that these tools can out perform certain cognitive tasks. This is about mapping a possibility space, not elusive magical powers only afforded to humans.
Magic until it isn’t.
