I love this take on Humane as a s̶c̶a̶m̶ business reselling the last decade laser projection b̶u̶l̶l̶s̶h̶i̶t̶ dreams with adding AI (edited, the question of scam/not scam is not the point).
And probably poisoning the well for other, simpler and laser-less personal AI devices as a side effect.
Btw, you can buy a 60g wearable device whose hardware is prepared for 24/7 microphone listening, has ML accelerator, 24h battery life, and has, for some reason, kept free 16GB of storage that the user can't access and the OS doesn't use.
It is called Apple Watch.
- bunnyfoofoo 3y agoFor the free space, you can actually sync music on Apple Watch and then connect AirPods to it when exercising so you can avoid taking your phone.
- tomaskafka 3y agoYes. Up to 8 GB. And then there's about 4-5 GB for the OS, something for the apps, and the second half is empty. For now at least.
- mark_l_watson 2y agoI like to leave my phone at home, and I load all sorts of content on to my Apple Watch. For me it is practical to have a lot of my favorite music permanently on my watch, then podcast and audio books are transient. If you have an Apple Watch, give it a try.
- threeseed 3y agoWords matter. We should reserve scams for the actual scams. Like we’ve seen with all the shitcoins, rug pulls etc in the crypto space. This is just bad product management in effect.
- realfeel78 3y agoThe term scam doesn't just mean the company has literally made nothing. People like you are how scammers keep getting away with scamming.
- tomaskafka 3y agoFair enough, I don't have enough evidence of the bad intent, so I edited the post.
- unobatbayar 3y ago> kept free 16GB of storage that the user can't access and the OS doesn't use. Sounds like it's used for data collection and surveillance.

- dmd 3y agoWhat do you mean re: storage? I use nearly all of those GBs of storage on mine with synced music and audiobooks for running.
- tomaskafka 3y agoDoes your watch show more than 8 GB synced? Mine does not. There's 32 GB of storage, sync uses 8, and it is really hard to fill more than other 8 with OS, apps & data. > Apple Watch limits the amount of music which can be stored on the watch and is typically limited to 24% of the available space on the watch, so given you have a watch with 32GB of total space, 8GB would the maximum you can store. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253403298?sortBy=best https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253403298?sortBy=best
- dmd 3y agoYep, I'm using about 25% for music, another dozen gigs for audiobooks... it adds up.
- tomaskafka 3y agoHmm, so each of Apple's apps has a limit? So far it seemed like the limit is shared to keep a lot of storage available (for the future?)
