We NEED To Talk About The AI Pin 

Learn how I ACTUALLY made my most successful videos with hands-on, practical behind the scenes breakdowns: www.enricotartarotti.com/storybehind?

Just disable 98% of an iPhone 13's features and clip it to your shirt. Same price and saves $24 a month. 👍

* how would it work in a noisy env? * what if you don’t want people next to you to know what you’re doing? * Visual maps is superior * being able to see instruction videos is really helpful

This is a new format I'm starting for whenever something happens in tech and ..We NEED To Talk About It! I hope you will appreciate these more direct, less edited and raw reactions/hot takes on anything new and cool that's happening. Let me know what you think of these ❤ P.S. I just PINNED this comment lol

I agree with most of your points man and it makes me realise it is very hard to come up with new tech, especially in this segment. You said it should be integrated into smart glasses for the projection, then people would be complaining about having to wear smart glasses as well. You said it should connect to your smartphone, then people would complain about it not being a stand-alone device. It's very hard to win! 😂 I think you're right, this isn't going to be very popular. An interesting proof of concept maybe but it won't sell imo

Ai Pins will watch us everywhere we go

This reminds me of Google Glass. Interesting niche product, premature technology, and really expensive. Their company introductory video shows those two co-founders with all the personality of The Adams Family. The marketing for this product looks terrible. That's why they have comments turned off on the introductory RU-vid post. Like Google Glass it will get a lot of free press and a fair amount of early adopters but long term I think this will be a noble failure and eventually, heavily price reduced.

I agree with your assessment Enrico, and would add that there are a number of tech projects trying to innovate in a space that is about to get gobbled up with XR devices like foldable phones and the AI Pin you covered in this video. These companies would be far better off spending their millions on XR tech, rather than trying to offer an alternative that even today looks suspect at best.

Love this vid, Enrico! Especially the bit about the projector UX 😂

I really thought they would sell it for max 200$ in which case it would have been cool minimalistic device. Come on, you can get a great smartphone or a tablet for 700$.

I had the same questions about the camera and the photos/videos. Also how do you know what you're taking a photo of, if you are not aiming a camera? I can see something like this as a add on to my smartphone, but I can't watch video on the device or SEE social media, things that you do all day long on a smartphone.

I think it's a good start and soon as the public has it they will see more things that they can integrate into it and make it better like to add a smartwatch to it that will give you a screen it's like your own personal Jarvis

ciao enrico, adoro il tuo canale, hai una freschezza nei contenuti assurda!! sempre al passo col tempo, stima da un tuo connazionale❤

I would see it as a Accessory for your cellphones, it looks practical. Instead of buying a smartwatch I would buy this PIN as a accessory. but NOT to replace my phone.❤

The one thing this concept of a product is good for is ""discretely"" recording video. However, with the puny battery life, and the lack of a system to store all the GBs of footage, its just a shittier version of Alexa. Also, by the time we have an offline ChatGPT 10.0 that can fit in a tablet or something, we will probably master the smart glasses stuff by then. But it won't matter at all if people are going to continue not trusting any personal device at all, and loathe "the Industrial Revolution and its consequences"

Cool video again, thanks. And I think you are right 😊

It has a subscription because its a phone plan. Its much cheaper than any other phone plan on the market and the price of the pin is less than most cell phones

i LOVE it as an AI assistant, but i hate it as a smartphone replacement.

A kid did a Ted talk more than 10 years ago with this minus ai.

The crome finish is ,probably for Star treck fans and problably the only customers 😊

This articulates precisely why I think this device will fail. From a user experience perspective it's just not there.. The core tech and thesis is missing.

Also, voice only devices will never be a thing in public. They’d have to pair with some type of screen (glasses, lenses, holograms or a watch). And this is the thing: having a combined experience of over 25 year Apple like them, they should know better about real world use of technology.

Imagine how awesome Google Glass would've been if it wasn't killed

Of course! I completely understand where you're coming from. However, I have to admit, I'm a little let down by the fact that there isn't a screen. 🎉😅😢 It would have been great if it was slightly larger than a smartwatch. I'm not sure if the AI pin is more geared towards business-related functions and the like.

I wonder could they integrate a golf GPS in it so it could tell you distances to the hole plus what club you should hit, oh and after what's the best bar to get wasted

If you come with a camera on your chest, you'll get kicked out from most places, In our shop, we kicked out everyone with smart glasses, camera light on or not. It's easy to disable the privacy features like all the secret recording app on smartphone And more importantly, How do you watch RU-vid videos on the train?

Does anyone else feel a bit uneasy about where AI is headed? I stumbled upon this new tech called the whsp ring, and it’s got me thinking.I saw a ring for health tracking but an AI assistant ring? hell no:joy:... it’s like something out of a sci-fi movie. Are we ready for this level of integration? AI development becomes even scarier.

So the $24 is basically $20 to open AI (chat gtp 4) and $4 to them a month.

It's like a smartwatch with 9/10 of the useful features removed

The palm menu isn't good. It needs to have a HUD for that kind of gesture control feature and it would have to be very responsive.

that is when the total solar eclipse is going to occur.

If this was small like a xiaomi smart band plus was a necklace this would have been great

Your assessment is spot on. However, certain groups like seniors and educators might find an improved version of this to be useful. But, I would not want that on a suit or shirt.

Sounds like what people said about the first iPhone..

Now that the Rabbit R1 was announced, I think that's more ideal as far as AI based interaction goes given it actually has a color screen, but then again it's basically a very limited miniature phone, so just... Give me a smartphone?

How are we supposed to watch RU-vid videos on this? And I need a computer or laptop to see my photos and videos that I've taken with this?

It’s personal, portable, and does things our smartphone assistants can’t do (Siri sure can’t yet). It aspires to replace smartphones someday, but it looks like it’s a good smartphone companion product. I like that it is a hands-free, better Siri that supports conversational type interaction. I can’t be the only one sick of the smartphone requirement of needing an app for everything. Stop thinking of this as something that is supposed to be an immediate replacement for your smartphone because that’s an aspirational goal, not today’s capability. I like this idea, but it’s expensive. It should not require independent cellular connectivity. It should tether or use WiFi instead.

@enricotartarotti @3:00 I don't know but according to the NASA website the Date is correct Apr. 08, 2024. So what is the correct date?

Очки намного удобнее, это правда. Но очки вносят изменения в строение человека. Вы видели людей, которые часто пользуются головными наушниками? У этих людей появляется деформация черепа на месте где были наушники. Так же и очки будут вносить изменение в зрении и черепе людей. Я думаю, что надо улучшать именно такую модель прибора, очень сильно улучшать, очень сильно. Например этот прибор очень слабо крепится на одежде. Я думаю это тестовая модель на которой они хотят заработать деньги для дальнейших улучшений. П.С. Мне казалось, что начнётся совсем другое видео, когда я первый раз увидел начало AI Pin рекламы. Если вы понимаете о чём я.

You haven’t lived until you’ve seen DMB LIVE!

I never comment but your videos are great man

Thanks for this vid, so at least 8 know the pitfalls now

I just found out from another video that Imran is also the guy who originally convinced Steve Jobs not to have a dedicated back button on iPhones Take this information as you will

Review the rewind pendent

I've tried looking for meaningful use cases for these kinds of products, and it eventually comes out as if most of them are just solutions waiting for problems. Most phones can do pretty much everything they pitch as value proposition to users. If the problem is that phones can be a distraction at times, well, I'll get a Nokia 3310 or switch my phone to focus mode. Did the team find out how easy it can be stolen in the streets? Truth be told, these things are pointless.

We need a little keybord with a small screen in my pocket

This is basically a wildlife collar for humans.

It cant replace the phones but can replace smartwatches considering it isnt hard and big like a watch.

Just wait for Apple to buy the company and product and release the new version of Siri using gpt that connects to my phone and fix all bugs and flaws

I would love to have a watch AI

AI will serve big business, govt, and global institutions first. Then it will eliminate and reduce everything else that does not fall into line even if that means the most basic essential needs of humanity.

To be fair the subscription of $24 pcm does include the data and connectivity as well as the services.

I will buy there 2nd version

I will agree to disagree on that one i don't think pin will replace your smartphone yet but eventually yes within 10-12 years from 2019 the AI PIN will be a great tool for virtual assistance now can it work if i travel outside the US

I can see where this concept might be beneficial for folks with a smartphone addiction. The screen isn't there and it forces you to use the internet as a tool rather than as entertainment. But I agree there are issues with this as you described.

당신을 사랑합니다 엔리코 :)

Thank you for sharing this product pitch video. It's certainly the next logical step and I share the technical excitement. I don't fully understand the "humane" aspect in their branding. What exactly is humane about this product? It projects on to your palm and the long term health effects of this are unknown to the best of my knowledge. It is placed very close to your body and this is known to have adverse health effects. In order to update the AI, you would most likely need to retrain the model every couple of years which could shorten the obsolescence cycle considerably. Lastly, it is REALLY expensive. For $699, you can get a small apartment in the Silicon Valley meaning that the price is comparable to rent in a posh location. This is definitely not humane.

So, when the lithium battery decides to short-combust, you better be quick to untuck your shirt.

100% they can’t just say it’s an cellphone replacement 😄

I don't think we need to talk about the AI pin.

This product is interesting. I mean it seems great but as a brand new product it will have many flaws

"Your core technology is not yours. It's Sam Altman's." Well that didn't last long.

Having a smart badge with a screen (not what they showed) could be very useful. It could be used as name tag, could give important info as needed like if disabked etc. Display important info during emergency and more. It could also house battery and extra computation power for other devices. Light could help with hands free light or camera too

The eclipse date is actually correct dude even months after

i needs "beam me up" command

Star Trek com-badge, without the utopia

2:03 , o yeah, cool investors, young company, wery well connected, like Theranos, WeWork, FTX ? :) OH, WAIT!....

1:38 Oh, and, it's not a Chinese, it's a Korean, haha :)

The date of the eclipse is correct by the way 🙃

a solution in search of a problem

The demo may not explain and show the whole idea of the AI Pin. Could you try the actual product first for the accurate comments?

Cool concept, but it's 5-10 years early

Humane" just no. Are we sure these two were not fired from Apple for lack of common sense? I most definitely would never want to hear everyone's text, email, and messages read or summarized out loud by the same annoying AI voice and then responded to in person all around me. Yuk. Hearing talking out loud on cell phones in public is now thankfully rare. Remember when they first came out? Why is that? It is because we all HATE IT! The reason we don't verbally call anymore is none of us want to talk now that we do not have to! What about emojis, personalizing with caps, memes, attached pictures, links, video clips etc? How would we play video games while we are sitting around in a waiting room or a line? Text privately? Have multiple conversations running at the same time? Watch You Tube etc? Use GPS maps? Access our hand while we are driving or carrying things? And now I have to go home and spend a bunch of time on my actual computer managing this thing? Just why?

We NEED To Talk About The Fuck'n Annoying Musak.

Why are you claiming that the date given for the eclipse is a hallucination. When you look it up even NASA says that is the date of the next solar eclipse.

This product will bomb so hard it will make the history books of bad product designs.

This is a great idea, terrible market audience. This could be great to lower check out times at retail stores. Like charging people while they pick up stuff and put them in their carts when food shopping and not have to do a big line for checkout. Decrease theft in retail stores etc. Replacing a smart phone however? I think not.

We're with you Enrico - I think they will pivot - and they will pivot to a personal AI...buddy. I.E., the only way to save this madness - is to turn this into an app, that is embedded into the core OS - of future devices - but definitely not this device. It never worked 12 years ago when it was a Great concept!- here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YrtANPtnhyg.html And it will never work now.

Great analysis. This is a baffling product.

Flawed first gen products like this serve to point the way for more refined devices to come, either by the originating team or by competitors, or to illuminate developmental cul-de-sacs unworthy of further exploration. A purpose is served in either case. I'll keep watching to see what emerges next along these lines.

Was this pin invented by an AI so they can scan hands all the time to finally learn how they work?

I’m never giving up my iPhone 13 Pro Max

Can you imagine a device like this for blind people it will probably help them tremendously

What if you’re not wearing a shirt…I mean did they not think of being outside (beach) and/or those shirtless moments?? No touch-less commands either - seems though I cant set the mood for my baths..pity.

Glad the video is back up. Was about 20% in when the first upload got taken down. 😂

T-MOBILE. Already failed. Doesn't work anywhere I do.

Something I definitely don’t want or need.

It’s a fun device in the beginning stages. I will get one.

This device needs to target specific population to be successful.

All i'm saying is that why we just have a device that peope will love freely just like how we embraced PC's and smartphones becuase they were better don't force a change on people when their not ready. Tbh i'm craving a new product that will come out of nowhere and we all use it

It’s a great idea but with bad marketing. If they sold this as an accessory like you said, I think it would be way more openly accepted. $24 a month should be a selling point like smartwatches have. The ability to use it like a phone, if your phone isn’t around. This will never replace a phone in its current state because I can’t use social media, and I doubt I can see those lasers on my hand if it’s especially bright outside. Still kinda want one not going to lie.

Questions questions questions

Star track like ai ,clark out

why delete the original?

The Subscription was what made it a no for me

Everyone who talks about this replacing their smartphone is deluded. The Apple Watch is pretty much the equivilent. You even have to do the same motion of raising yout wrist. The only thing that's cool about it, is the camera, But you can just get an Insta Go 3.

I just don't get why these guys want to kill the smartphones so bad and why we need this kind of product. Can't we just implement AI technology into phones?

If all your life you have used your mobile screen vertically oriented, then you also have a clunky experience. Being a fashionista doesn't make your vertically oriented screen right, as mobile screens were never meant to be vertically oriented

Nice to see an innovative new wearable come out - so far we have only seen smartwatches and fitness trackers - stay tuned

They could focus on translation/communication and market it as a Star Trek like ComBatch / universal translator… I am sure there are people who would buy it just for that…
