If you use such a thing on a regular kind of meeting that happens over zoom or similar, your arm will atrophy and fall off from having to hold that thing for the duration. The only remedy I see is to give everyone such a contraption and make it mandatory.

This would be an excellent way to make sure the standup stays terse, we could even put lead weights in the handsets to further increase this virtue.

#16Off topic, this has been my experience with AI so often that it prevents me from exploring AI uses more.
I liked Cursor’s “auto” plan but that now seems gone. I’d happily switch to a provider that offers a similarly “unlimited” usage.

#18Same here but I want to go for a xilink bluetooth adapter and maybe even sacrifice and old smartphone with a separate sim. Not sure if the AI stuff will work but it seems possible….

Back in the day when phones of this style were the only ones available we learned to hold the handset between our shoulder and our ear, leaving both hands free for other things.
