Apple Developing AirTag-Sized AI Pin With Dual Cameras

[Dt990]

Overheats in 2min of continuous use, doesn’t understand 95% of things you say.
99.9% of things you ask to do, can be done faster by pulling out the phone

But it doesn't increase share holder value like a dedicated device that can do less than what your phone does.

These types of product ideas have always intrigued me. But none of the attempts thus far have had much success. And I’m not too optimistic a Siri-powered AI pin would do a great job.

 

[fatTribble]

I hope it’s powerful enough to reach the Enterprise in orbit.
I’d like to beam up now. 🖖

Even after the Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1, Apple thinks this is a good idea?!

That’s a fair point. But one company’s failure can be another company’s opportunity. Let’s see where this leads to.

Seen some stupid **** in my time. This is going in that hole in my mind.

Meanwhile when you are an expat living outside of your homeland "intelligence" refuse to cooperate as it demands the country, the system language and Siri are coherent. Well, the intelligence is still just stupid.

SNL skit leaked.

I always thought the "Apple is doomed" stuff was overblown but between this news, Liquid Glass, and the Vision Pro I'm starting to wonder.

history repeats itself often and even the biggest companies can fall apart

 

[Astuces iOS]

$100 this AirTag !

 

[EM2013]

Why do these companies think we want this ai nonsense 🙄

 

[kiensoy]

Of course they are gonna be working on something to not get caught off guard when the gadget from Ive-Altman comes out

You know there's going to a sudden market demand for privacy devices that prevent others scraping your IRL information. Infrared blaster eyeglass frames to block facial recognition (CCD) cameras are already becoming a thing.

I do not consent to my biometrics being harvested by people walking down the street, especially considering how many reports of corporate cyberattacks there are.

 

[DocMultimedia]

This is the most interesting rumor in a long time. Far better than a sale on a Mac charger. 🤣

 

[Edsel]

This is actually very frightening.

 

[harrisondavies]

If it shaped like a Star Trek commbadge. I’m in haha.

 

[mozumder]

If it shaped like a Star Trek commbadge. I’m in haha.

It's gonna be shaped like a McDonalds name tag and you get to print your name on it,

 

[NightFox]

With all the anti-stalking measures Apple included and went to great lengths to publicise with the AirTags, I really struggle to see Apple being comfortable with the potential reputational and legal liability for producing a device like this.

 

[enkidoodler]

Good grief... just put this functionality in the watch. Or maybe some AR glasses that network with my phone and mac automagically, but a google eyed pin? gtfoh

As someone else pointed out, it seems a bit like the device from Her (or the Humane AI pin)

If Siri becomes self-aware and god-like, can it upload my consciousness and bring me along on the ride to Alpha Centauri (and all the other stars)

 

[JulienCasey]

How is Apple gonna not make this another Humane AI pin and Rabbit R1?

Even after the Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1, Apple thinks this is a good idea?!

Here's my best, It's going to link into your iPhone like Apple Watch can, and as an iPhone accessory it will do well. The Rabbit R1 and Humane AI Pin didnt have that going for them.

 

[turbineseaplane]

Good lord.

Can I please just get another small iPhone?

PLEASE!?

 

[Taq'aix]

Apple is grasping at straws. It’s pathetic.

 

[MacOH21]

Like Star Trek, if I can tap it and say, "Computer..." it may just be worth it.

 

[B4U]

All the peeping Tom and stalker will thank this invention, oh wait... 🤣 🙊
