Just want to point out that I saw the headlines from the Verve bashing the Humane AI pin as universally terrible before I saw MKBHD’s video. He’s far from the only person with a giant megaphone bashing this device. Dave2d has even suggested he thinks these devices are a scam before they even came out as they essentially avoided reviewers and didn’t allow anyone to purchase the devices.
- praisewhitey 3y agoworth noting the controversy at The Verge is the opposite with people saying a 4/10 rating is far too generous
- paxys 3y agoLol everything is a "controversy" now
- hbn 3y agoIt was really just their number score which doesn't seem to be in-line with what the article/video said, which was probably even more damning than Marques' video. If "I can’t think of anyone to whom I’d recommend spending the $699 for the device and the $24 monthly subscription" is a 4/10, I would hate to see the chaos that a Verge 1/10 would wreak across society.
- neom 3y agoThey discussed that in the podcast and the dude who gave the score took a lot of flack for it from his co-workers, said something along the lines of "I gave them an extra point to be nice because they tried a hard thing", so it should have been a 3. Personally, I'd have given it a 1 with a nice guy point. 2/10. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WGFAfirMO4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WGFAfirMO4
