This is a really contrived demo and examples of usage. How would you use this when you’re at work or at a meeting? At a movie theater? Just anywhere where you don’t want to be speaking or have audio blasting out?
The French translation happened without any prompt whatsoever. How did it know that he wanted to translate that to French? That’s not a real demo at all.
How could I read my emails from that? Will I have to listen for the device to read all of them? How about messages, Slack, etc? How would I do my banking on that? How do I view photos and videos I recorded?
Smartphones are so ubiquitous because they are really good at what they do. If you’re claiming to replace them with something new it needs to 10x better than that. I don’t see this being it.

I didn’t ask AI, I asked God and he said this
Jeremiah 18
King James Version
18 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.
3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.
4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
6 O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.
7 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;
8 If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
9 And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
10 If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.
11 Now therefore go to, speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: return ye now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good.
12 And they said, There is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart.
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Ask ye now among the heathen, who hath heard such things: the virgin of Israel hath done a very horrible thing.
14 Will a man leave the snow of Lebanon which cometh from the rock of the field? or shall the cold flowing waters that come from another place be forsaken?
15 Because my people hath forgotten me, they have burned incense to vanity, and they have caused them to stumble in their ways from the ancient paths, to walk in paths, in a way not cast up;
16 To make their land desolate, and a perpetual hissing; every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished, and wag his head.
17 I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy; I will shew them the back, and not the face, in the day of their calamity.
18 Then said they, Come and let us devise devices against Jeremiah; for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.
19 Give heed to me, O Lord, and hearken to the voice of them that contend with me.
20 Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember that I stood before thee to speak good for them, and to turn away thy wrath from them.
21 Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
22 Let a cry be heard from their houses, when thou shalt bring a troop suddenly upon them: for they have digged a pit to take me, and hid snares for my feet.
23 Yet, Lord, thou knowest all their counsel against me to slay me: forgive not their iniquity, neither blot out their sin from thy sight, but let them be overthrown before thee; deal thus with them in the time of thine anger.

Its easier, faster and likely cheaper to use a smartphone.
Voice only interface is not a step forward imo. I dont want to talk out loud to interface and wait 2-3 seconds for a response, also out loud.
Personally i think AR glasses paired with a finger ring you control with your thumb is the next step.
THEN you wont need a smartphone anymore.
All your visual information is right in front of your eyes, along with the rest of the world, and DISCRETE interfacing.
Its an impressive tech demo, but not practical, no one wants to use their device out loud where everyone can hear what you’re doing.

i wonder how they want to tackle the privacy issue, because powerful, multimodal language models that can reason about complex things require huge data centers to be stored and used. this “personal ai” doesnt fit in your pocket, and it wont any time soon, if ever. so you have to send all the collected perception data to a data center and trust the providers to not misappropriate it, which is directly conflicting with their financial incentives…
i dont want to dismiss the technology; i think this will be great if done right. but there needs to be regulation in place to make sure those ai providers are not turning this into a mass surveillance system. we should always ask ourselves how these new technologies can be exploited and used against us, so we are better prepared when the technology actually arrives.

I think if they can use the camera to see and interpret Sign Language and ‘speak’ in the speakers tailored AI voice, that would be the most impressive use of that technology. Double points if the person listening does the ‘reading’ of the hands and gestures and it speaks to them in the speakers voice.

Is that an AI in your shirt pocket? Your own unique, responsible, trustworthy AI?
It’s the vocabulary choice (“envisions future”, “natural”, “deeply profound”, “responsible”, “in service to us”, “built on trust”, “good AI” “humane” “intuitive”)… and the personalized delivery of the “innovator” and “entrepreneur” which sells the product… and spreads propaganda. Transcribed, for comprehension often improves with reading the spoken words.
Note the name: Humane
“INVISIBLE DEVICES feel so NATURAL to use that you almost forget about their existence…. This is not a deep fake. In fact, it’s DEEPLY PROFOUND. This is my AI giving me the ability to speak any language and you having the chance to hear me speak that language in MY OWN EMOTION and MY OWN VOICE [No, it’s not you, but a simulation of you.] … This is moving away from the experiments that make us all concerned about the direction compute is going in. But it’s instead using technology to create REAL, RESPONSIBLE compute products that are IN SERVICE TO US and BUILT ON TRUST. This is GOOD AI in action…. The result almost feels like the ENTIRE WORLD becomes your operating system. And when compute disappears IT ALLOWS US to get back to WHAT REALLY MATTERS: a NEW ability to be present.”
“The more you use our device powered by AI, the more we can help you in all times of need. YOUR AI EFFECTIVELY BECOMES AN EVER-EVOLVING PERSONALIZED FORM OF MEMORY. And we think that’s amazing… MY AI KNOWS WHAT’S BEST FOR ME. Your AI figures out what you need at the speed of thought… As AI advances we will see how it will transform nearly every aspect of our lives. In ways that will seem unimaginable right now… More humane, intuitive interactions [“with the world around you”] that are screenless, seamless AND SENSING… reimagining the human-technology relationship… IT’S THE WORLD THAT WE WANT TO LIVE IN… where technology not only helps YOU get back into the world but enhances OUR ability to do so. The future of technology might almost be invisible.”
This is definitive evil. 24/7 surveillance to THEIR cloud via your shirt pocket while atrophying whatever’s left of your human brain. Why bother learning languages or reading maps and books or analyzing information? Has your ability to discourse been reduced to 280 alpha-numerical characters and colorful pictograms? This “GOOD AI” does it all and will, reassuringly, “sculpt tailored responses in your own voice and in the context of your life.” Apparently, deconstructing humans into data for harvesting into profit hasn’t satisfied their greed.
