I'm not so aligned with this article. I think this product shows a great deal of vision and creative risk. Even if it ends up as a failed experiment, I think it's still a worthwhile effort, and I'll be happy to see where they go with it.

The market will decide. If nobody likes it then it will flop. If it takes off, then well done to them.

Good to see some form of innovation. Maybe they will create a new category of device, as dozens of Chinese imitators come up with clones? Either way this is all positive.

A device like this with the battery capacity and processing power for running local AI would be very good for privacy.

I could see some people buying it, if someone advertised it as totally private, with no logs or sensitive data stored on even the device itself (i.e. in RAM and gone on power off). So you can ask it anything, it will answer, and there is no trace at all once it's switched off.
