The scam is that the hardware is unnecessary, expensive, and strictly worse than just using your phone.

- danparsonson 2y agoThat doesn't make it a scam though, just a waste of money. A scam would be something like, you order it and what turns up is a photo of the device with a QR code on the back linking to a download for the app.
- serf 2y agothe line isn't that clear cut. broken promises that create a sale could certainly be construed as 'scammy'.

- danparsonson 2y agoI don't know too much about this product - did they promise not to run it on Android?
- bluSCALE4 2y agoThe scam is that it uses Playwright and no LLM actually exists.
- asadm 2y agoMarket isn't an optimization problem. Market can decide what is necessary or isn't. I would pick this up for $200 if the models were running locally.
- msephton 2y agoI think we all would. But realistically no $200 device is going to run models locally.
- dartos 2y agoYou can run models on anything if you try
- NotYourLawyer 2y agoThey don’t though. And if they did, it would cost more than $200. Like, say, a phone.
