#72I watched the demo video, and I'm not sure I understand what "seen" means in the title. Is there a camera on this?

#73As is the case with just about all tech service offerings these days, whether they charge you or not, my first question is: How much of the info it extracts from me to provide me with this service is it going to hoard and then resell to others for the sake of "improving user experience" or some other bullshit justification for extracting more money. The ugly thing is that this vast privacy invasion and resell has bec…
Perhaps "limitless" refers to what they are allowed to do with the data/information they collect.
NB. Data/information can be transferred to other entities in ways that not meet the definition of "resell".1
In addition to transfer, there must be limits on _use_. Obviously a "restriction" like, "The company shall be limited to using the data to improve the service" is meaningless. Defeating privacy improves the service.
1. Years ago, when Facebook was responding to the media with the line, "We do not sell your data", they were sharing it for free. Not to mention leaking it. https://themarkup.org/the-breakdown/2021/09/02/what-does-it-...

#74I really wish someone would make a pendant like this which is focussed on local-only use. It could connect to a mobile app or computer for transcription and summarisation, but using local models or an API key that the use chooses. I would pay serious money for a device high quality that did this (>$500) if it was backed by open-source platform/infrastructure for processing the managing the audio. Even better if it wa…
Me too! I came across this recently:

I have been wanting this since I first used whisper and saw it’s capability. Nothing you can buy off the shelf is sufficient at the moment and if you diy it’ll be too big.
I actually pitched this idea as a project for students on an MSc EE course a friend runs. Sadly none of the students picked it but we looked at it in some detail and it’s so simple that even the dev boards +battery + mic array could have been made pretty small (according to him anyway). I really hope someone with the hardware chops fancies scratching the itch!

Do you plan to add support for microsoft calendars and email? I have gmail but none of my work stuff is in there so I can't really make great use of this :(
I hate how people keep pretending that only Google does calendar and mail. These things have been standardized for decades for a reason.

#79It sounds like this is killing/replacing Rewind
We wouldn’t be where we are today without our existing customers, so all Rewind Pro subscribers get Limitless Pro for free. We are shifting our focus to Limitless because we think it’s a better approach to solving the same problems. In fact, we plan to implement many of your favorite Rewind features directly in Limitless. We are so bullish on Limitless that we decided to change our company name from Rewind to Limitle…
So Rewind will be the local version and Limitless will be the cloud version? Will Rewind still be coming to windows?

#80i haven’t personally used the AI pin, but based on reviews, it doesn’t feel like these devices are going to feel productive until a much higher % of queries is answered on-device (without going to the cloud). MKBHD asked his pin what he was looking at, and in the time humane’s pin to take a pic, send it up to the cloud, decide what model is most appropriate, and narrate a really long (possibly hallucinatory) answer;…
You’re talking about the humane ai pin. That’s different.
