But isn’t this also just bad implementations of AI? “It got a stupid simple answer wrong”, seems like a gpt-4o on a buggy RAG implementation from 2 years ago problem. Hard to fathom a modern model would get any of this basic stuff wrong. I

Wow, I have the exact same use case. Just move stuff off the floor so my vacuum robot can run and my life will improve 3-4x. Easy $2000 buy. The matic is being sold as one with better obstacle avoidance and I have no doubt it does but the p

Can you speak to the tradeoffs of high ratio servers vs QDD motors? Is it power or long term life? I can see me doing so many things with this.

Super cool! How do you think you will want to sell these into robotics teams, I find so many core engineering teams in Robotics companies have a "we'll just build it ourself" attitude around tools like this. Have you had luck

I would love the simplest one of these with just wheels and an arm. Could do so much with it.

Appclips in iOS are a decent shot at that. But require it to be under 15MB, which is really hard to hit, especially if you use RN, but we'll be dumping RN to make this happen as a next step. >>The issue is that people often forge

No need to litigate this again, digital audioguides are now 20-25 year old technology and very popular.

Not persistently, the user has to constantly bring the phone up and re-enable, which as you can imagine gets really annoying really quickly.

The flip side is: I have an Audioguide app with reams of fancy of AI features. Even a basic non-AI one is we use GPS in the background to auto-trigger when you approach certain checkpoints on your tour, and we don't want you staring or

“the sense of superiority the experience seems to breed" I dont know how re-reading is going to help me see this sentence differently. I am just telling you my lived experience shows me this prior is simply not true. That's all.

“the sense of superiority the experience seems to breed” Mostly an extremely online problem, not a real world one. More so the nature of the medium in fact. Evidenced by how you edited out the “dead” in front of VC funded when you were quot

Yes obviously. But just to caveat, its not YC or VC funding that is critical. It’s the act of building something and trying to sell it that is.

N=1 but my dead VC funded YC company taught me more about the ins and outs of what it takes to run a complex successful engineering and sales operation than any number of years in business school or grinding in consultancies. YMMV you do ha

“I wonder if maybe the speed limit is too low” Super curious how anyone could think this. It’s not a highway, and there's pedestrians crossing. The buildings aren’t dense and the setbacks are large so maybe it “feels” like you should g

What database is that? If your claim is to not post it on Facebook, I agree.

“There has been no evidence that a database built off of meta ray-bans exists.” This was my only claim. Which remains true. Videos off of the glasses voluntarily posted on FB is no different than iPhone videos posted on FB so it has nothing

Is the claim that meta uses publicly posted videos as a source for ads? The meta glasses are irrelevant to that fact. I’d be happy to join some kind of rage-off at metas general practices but my claim was specifically just about the glasse

There is no Rayban data in Facebook. There is no connection and no way to use one with the other (other than voluntarily posting your own video to FB/Insta)
