Awesome... Especially cool seeing the memories in action. I do like how the Rewind folks do things though [1].

Wearables and AI have a way bigger future and potential than AR, IMO. Why would I want to strap a giant Apple Vision headset to my face all day when I could instead just have something like a 2000s Bluetooth phone headset with an AI super assistant? [2]. I think this also solves your other issue of privacy in responses. Right now it's essentially a phone on speaker.

With an Internet connected GPT and some clever Actions/Commands, you can essentially replace your phone -- Internet searches, text, call, email, etc.

My personal dream of an AI wearable is dead-simple:

- just an ear piece to talk and listen with a slick camera on it for AI Vison [2]

- until the tech gets better/faster/smaller, just make it a relay to wherever my cloud AI, phone AI, or self-managed custom AI lives. No need to wear actual compute right now. Make the device small and slick (cough, cough, Apple...).

- 5G mobile band

- Aggressive memories / basically 24/7 streaming vision. I want analysis ready before I even ask. Even if starting it's just a snapshot frequently.

I don't really understand this. The Vision Pro and gadgets like the Rabbit R1 are completely different devices with completely different use cases.

Good points, thanks a lot! Yes ear piece should be great. But how about using it with Apple or Android buds simultaneously?
