This isn’t a joke, though it almost seems like one. It uses Llama 3.1, and supposedly the conversation data stays on the device and gets forgotten over time (through what the founder calls a rolling “context window”).
The implementation is interesting, and you can see the founder talking about earlier prototypes and project goals in interviews from several months ago.
iOS only, for now.
Edit: Apparently, you can build your own for around $50 that runs on ChatGPT instead of Llama. I’m sure you could also figure out how to switch it to the LLM of your choice.
I will be waiting for the tech YouTubers and early adopters to render their judgement before I even consider yet another AI wearable, but this aims to be less of a personal assistant and more of a “Tamagotchi.”
I think that’s what sets this one apart (and makes it less expensive) from the other devices like this. This thing only needs a mic, an LLM and a Bluetooth radio. It won’t search the whole internet for answers or tell you what you’re looking at, but it will talk shit on that bitch Tonya in accounting with you.
At least tamagotchis had games
LMFAO. The audacity of calling the token limit a “rolling context window” like it’s a desirable feature and not just a design aspect of every LLM…
