O novo colar de IA ouve constantemente e usa todos esses dados para reclamar de você
A new pendant-shaped wearable that continuously records everything you do isn’t just an enormous privacy violation in the making — it’s also a jerk that loves to mouth off.The $129 wearable, with the uninspired name “Friend,” is the brainchild of 22-year-old entrepreneur Avi Schiffmann, who sought to end a growing loneliness epidemic by providing his customers with a companion that hangs by their every word and can summarize conversations retroactively.As The Verge reported last year, the chatbot’s foul mood is by design, with Schiffmann arguing it’s far more engaging when an AI’s moodiness is turned up to 11.The company’s website doesn’t elaborate on the wearable’s purpose in any meaningful way, but links to a controversial promotional video that was immediately heavily criticized for being “creepy” and “beyond parody last summer.Well over a year after the video was published, Wired reporters Kylie Robison and Boone Ashworth got to test out the device for themselves for a piece titled “I Hate My Friend” — and judging by their experience, the Friend appears to be yet another dumpster fire in the shape of an overpriced AI chatbot gadget.Robison quickly grew to despise the gizmo. She wore the device to a party organized by AI startup Anthropic, and ended up being accused of “wearing a wire” -Para ela, uma indicação de que “mesmo nas reuniões mais importantes da tecnologia, a coisa era um tabu completo.” Simplificando, ninguém quer ter todas as suas palavras gravadas pela AI de outra pessoa, o que o torna um ajuste especialmente terrível para os jornalistas Resenhou que ele funcionou apenas com uma conexão Bluetooth, Ashworth descobriu que seu iPhone mais antigo com uma conexão Wi -Fi, mas nenhum cartão SIM de dados instalado, não seria suficiente (o amigo também não funciona com os dispositivos Android. “Whiner”. A startup Humane, e o R1 de Rabbit, caíram e queimaram espetacularmente, sugerindo que o vestível do amigo pode em breve experimentar um destino semelhante. Mais um amigo: o aplicativo companheiro de chatbot torna horrível as personalidades da IA, dizendo que envolve os usuários com mais eficácia
