This isn’t a joke, though it almost seems like one. It uses Llama 3.1, and supposedly the conversation data stays on the device and gets forgotten over time (through what the founder calls a rolling “context window”).
The implementation is interesting, and you can see the founder talking about earlier prototypes and project goals in interviews from several months ago.
iOS only, for now.
I think that’s what sets this one apart (and makes it less expensive) from the other devices like this. This thing only needs a mic, an LLM and a Bluetooth radio. It won’t search the whole internet for answers or tell you what you’re looking at, but it will talk shit on that bitch Tonya in accounting with you.
