If people hated the Google Glasses recording them, won't they hate this too with the camera always facing forward?
But it’s got what people crave. It's got ai.

#33I wish them good luck and I wish good luck to the guy who develops the tap which is a similar concept without camera laser just microphone and GPT connection

#34They say they don't listen for watchwords and only record video on demand. Good.
But that means their hypothetical calorie-count example only works if you actively remember "I am eating, I should tell the pin to record my eating". Same with many other things; the wrist-worn smart devices are useful exactly because they are always recording, they are somewhat ambient.
I understand why they do it, I even applaud them for thinking about privacy, it might even be necessary (cough..Google glass...cough), but I feel they have to walk a tightrope between a rock and a hard place to bring privacy-consciousness and useful features together.

#37Launch Video: https://vimeo.com/882968794 A lot of the interactions seem to take longer vs me just taking my phone out and quickly doing what I need to do. Its compelling given this is a v1 of the product so it will only get better from here but not completely sold on it just yet.
Kind of cool, maybe, but oh my god - the awkward video is such a turn off. Hire some actors!
The whole goal of doing a startup like this as ex-Apple people is the narcissistic "next Steve Jobs" audition they are implicitly doing.
I'm sure Steve Jobs rolled over in his grave when they lead with product specs over "why buy this."

It has a trust light that indicates when it's recording.

#39Their demo of AI Q&A in the announcement video (@3:36) is totally wrong. The Pin says the April 2024 total eclipse will be best viewed from Australia and East-Timor... Except the eclipse passes over the US and will be nowhere near Australia. The answer seems to be about a partial eclipse in April 2023. How was that not fact checked???

Cause they aren't Apple, just the cheap knock-offs

#40So the AI Pin comes with its own phone number? Couldn't it be paired to my current eSIM? I don't need a second phone number... In any case, 700USD plus 24USD monthly subscription is a bit too much IMO.
I could stomach $700 but not a $24/mo subscription.
