I watched the second video first (no weird stuff in that video that I noticed, just a demo of the invention). My impression was that it was one of the most innovative and unique things I'd seen in a while, especially from a UX perspective.
Then I read the comments and watched the second video. I get the backlash over the misogyny. But I wonder if focusing too much on that is throwing the baby out with the bath water. Without knowing anything else, the scenario that popped into my head was a team of creators who are really good at a few things, but at the expense of being completely incompetent at marketing, social issues, website design, being classy in general...
But should this invention be squashed for their mistakes or lauded for its brilliance?
Sometimes I think really innovative and brilliant things come from people who have ultra-focused to the point of being very good at a few things and sucking at many other things... And the sucking at many other things is the cost that must be paid.
