I see no one is asking the hard questions. How is your data kept safe? On the website, it states you use end-to-end encryption. How is that possible if data is sent to a server and the LLM needs to get the input of your conversation?

@remus_negrota No one is asking the hard questions because most of the comments here are from bots. Take a look at their profiles, and the very similar language they all use in this launch and all others they've commented on. Sketchy.

Hey, very interesting idea! Congrats on the launch! I really like your promo video, it feels like an episode from Black Mirror 🙈 Best of luck!!🍀

@kksrm haha I just wrote a similar comment without seeing yours. Isn't it a bit terrifying?

Mad props @kodjima33 for calling out Avi's theft of your product! https://x.com/kodjima33/status/1...

@marinaduric I dunno, but at least @kodjima33 didn't blow most of his investment capital on a domain name.

Congratulations to the team behind this innovative wearable companion! however, How do you ensure the privacy and security of the users' data? Are there any specific measures in place to protect sensitive information?

When I started watching your video guys, it felt like the episode of Black Mirror, I was awaiting for some weird things to happen by the end. Luckily all good haha

a depressing lack of the domain name discourse on here

@macakmacak $1.3M was a deal! 😂

Congrats on your launch. The video has me confused. I don't understand how the 'friend' is adding value to the lives of those in the video. The disconnect from the wearable to receiving an SMS feels odd to me. Why wouldn't the device include audio and speak to you if you wanted it to? Are there many use cases where people would want a wearable AI 'friend' when they're with real human friends? It's more likely the use case is when people are alone but in that case, what's the intention in terms of value? Is it for mental health? Or to replace google if you want to know something quickly without having to get your phone out of your pocket etc? Who are you targeting for this device out of interest?

@emily_willis1 Its more about. recording the ambience. and interpreting the context over time. And then injecting these small interactions into your life so you can feel more connected. Its not trying to be your parrot on you shoulder japping all day.

@sentry_co Got it, so it is more for companionship when you're alone
