MKBHD said the line that every reviewer should take to heart: "Judge the product on what it is today, not on what it hopes to be or what it will be at some point in the future". If I'm paying the money today, I expect the judgement for the product as it is today. Most companies are lying to us, not marketing tactics, just plain old lies. Judge the product as it is on release and avoid fanboying for an idea; only then will we as customers/consumers get finished products.

When Apple makes a product as useless as the Humane Pin, sure. Just because you don’t like apples closed ecosystem doesn’t mean the products are actually bad.
The skepticism is there, it's just that apple has the mentality of 'not releasing a product until it is polished and well engineered' so there's less room to criticise it. Truth be told, I don't like apple but this is generally their best quality; I can't say anything else positive because I simply don't mesh with their products, but rarely do they come out with a dud for the majority of people who use them @@Blackspidy619

Gamers helped make it popular and profitable for companies to release unfinished and broken products. Tech companies have learned that most people will not only pay for promises, but also for the right to not actually own what they purchase. Car companies are following suit with microtransactions, charging again to use stuff the car you bought already has installed, and telling you what you can and can't do with the property you bought. Throw in the "can't sell" agreements and other bullshit, car companies like Tesla, BMW, and Ferrari are becoming more like game companies.

Here in the US most states allow for you you have digital copies of your documents on your phone. Because the laws that were put into place originally, state that you must present a "COPY" and not the physical or original print.
That fact that people are becoming so anti-consumer and pro- corporation that they are attacking the concept of reviews and force customers to follow promises of future potential with a simple "just trust me bro" from the company to not only have the future promises be achieved but also made available without extra purchasing... is so disgusting in a massive dystopian way.

I can say for certain that US states are attempting to get driver’s licenses into Apple/google pay. Apparently the bottleneck at the moment is Apple and Google not wanting to share the source code of the wallet (I’m no programmer but they said something like that in the meeting) but once that is resolved states will be able to start using that for drivers licenses, car taxes, fishing licenses and everything else
This products sounds like its gonna become an addon for the neuralink where your eyes work as the camera, basically giving the capacity to analize everything on sight and doing a bunch of things from your brain
The other problem with this product is that it relies on the company completely to work. If the company making it goes bankrupt, then you no longer have the AI which makes both of these things essentially paperweights.
These AI are nothing like EDI from Mass Effect. They're more like early models of the VI - Virtual Intelligence from Mass Effect, glorified street directories. - Correction, in Mass Effect they're called VI not SI (Simulated Intelligence).
He literally didn't say they were, he said that in theory an LAM would be something that does what EDI does, that the direction they are heading in is comparable. He was saying that what these can do is not at that point
@@shortbreadhead they wouldn't be actually. if the VI can follow instructions to do things is very different from the VI coming up with instructions on their own like an intelligent independent entity, which would be AI. actually the virtual intelligence term is very good for these systems that are designed to provide an appearance of intelligence, while still being predictable clockwork mechanisms (provided you know the input you know what comes out, most chatbots and such _hide_ what are the inputs from you to keep up the appearance, this is what leads to ai bros coming up on chatgroups and saying that they cracked the code and made chatgpt self aware by giving chatgpt inputs that make it say that it's self aware).
@@lasskinn474 You're both misreading what I'm trying to say as well as reading far too much into this. What I was meaning is that he was saying that IN AN IDEAL WORLD an LAM would be great IF it were capable of what EDI can do, and that this is how he would hope it progresses to but right now it is nowhere near that, in the slightest, but it shows potential that there is a chance that it could one day hopefully reach the point where it RESEMBLES that of what EDI is capable of. He was only using EDI as an example, a reference point for viewers as a template for what he means he hopes it could reach a similar level of functionality and practicality. It does not mean he was saying that he thinks that it will do exactly what EDI can do, it does not mean that he is saying the two function at their core identically. It is not that deep.
Good news! In some states you can do exactly what you described with your identification. I believe it is called real ID and it is an app where you can upload all of your identifications, bus passes, parking passes and anything else.

how about these companies don't release unfinished pieces of junk. I saw the review yesterday, I was genuinely excited about the product. but he shows off what it can and can't do. I think you did a great job of highlighting how it's only $200 for a gamble of what the device MIGHT be in the future. this is a totally fair summary. It's unfinished and it still costs $200, a lot better than that stupid projector pin thing that cost $700 plus a monthly subscription. Tech companies, game companies, car companies need to get their shit together and stop abusing consumers.
Honestly, at the end of the day, these people need to understand that you can't just make something, charge an assload of money for it, have it be an additional device that you carry around for your average person, and expect there to be a positive review for it if you haven't tested it versus other competition if they're even is any, or versus anything that already exists, like a smartphone for example which literally does every single damn thing they're talking about, because you can practically do the same damn thing with Google Lens
In Australia. NSW specifically you can get all of your license and registration particulars on your mobile device. Physical license not needed. We have an app that brings up a fancy QR code the cops can scan and see all out details they would get from a card license
I'm so freaking tired of Tech Bros and AI Bros, these guys living in alternative realities getting surprised common people don't like their products, when they are clearly not designing products for a wider audience? We should start calling their BS out more often.
I preordered one, then came to my senses, got refunded (problem free I should mention), and came to watch and be entertained by his review. Glad I did.
PRoducts like the Rabbit R1 would have been revolutionary IF AI was burgeoning as it currently is, back in 2014. Today, its quite literally the oppositite of that, perhaps even beyond so. It's revolutionary archaic
"These things could easily be replaced by Apple or Google in one software update" Well, Muta, you gotta remember. A lot of startups start with the expectation of eventually merging into bigger companies.

This is going from children and adults that can't handle being told no to full-fledged companies being told no your product is garbage and then they lose their mind and throw a temper tantrum😂😂😂😂😂😂
The best way they could do this is to create a box that connects to your phone. You keep the box in your bag and that handles all of the AI processing and once it has compiled, it then outputs to the phone. This way, you don't have to have two seperate devices in a sense and you can keep it local by having it only access the internet when the request requires it
$200, still cheaper than Escape from Tarkov

Normal usage averaged at about 7-10 hours and this is coming from experience.
Marques realized he doesn't have to kiss ass anymore and can unleash his full power.
Why get paid to review, when you can instead be paid to not review things
@user-wn2pv5qb5pthe people are specifically crypto bros that hopped to the AI trend and became AI bros
Dude reviewed the $700 apple wheels better than a $200 AI box. I just won't trust him until I see this same skepticism towards apple.
When Apple makes a product as useless as the Humane Pin, sure. Just because you don’t like apples closed ecosystem doesn’t mean the products are actually bad.
The skepticism is there, it's just that apple has the mentality of 'not releasing a product until it is polished and well engineered' so there's less room to criticise it.
Truth be told, I don't like apple but this is generally their best quality; I can't say anything else positive because I simply don't mesh with their products, but rarely do they come out with a dud for the majority of people who use them

I love how Marques is a menace for this kind of tech, while we also have Gamers Nexus being a menace for hardware side
@MinerDiner you mean giving an honest review 💀
Gamers helped make it popular and profitable for companies to release unfinished and broken products. Tech companies have learned that most people will not only pay for promises, but also for the right to not actually own what they purchase.
Car companies are following suit with microtransactions, charging again to use stuff the car you bought already has installed, and telling you what you can and can't do with the property you bought. Throw in the "can't sell" agreements and other bullshit, car companies like Tesla, BMW, and Ferrari are becoming more like game companies.
Products were released unfinished long before video games and software updates were even a thing, zoomer.

Around 7:30 in Iceland we have all these things on our phone, drivers license, registration and such so it's only a matter of time

In Brazil we do have our driver licenses and pink slips on our phones, which is legally equivalent to a physical document in any situation that requires it.

Here in the US most states allow for you you have digital copies of your documents on your phone. Because the laws that were put into place originally, state that you must present a "COPY" and not the physical or original print.
That fact that people are becoming so anti-consumer and pro- corporation that they are attacking the concept of reviews and force customers to follow promises of future potential with a simple "just trust me bro" from the company to not only have the future promises be achieved but also made available without extra purchasing... is so disgusting in a massive dystopian way. The video game and crypto industries have already proven that "just trust me bro" is a braindead model for the customer.

We also have a similar app in India made by the government called digilocker. We can store our id, licence, registration, everything important you need.

"phone wallet keys, phone wallet keys, good things come in 3s. phone wallet keys." Adam Sandler
I can say for certain that US states are attempting to get driver’s licenses into Apple/google pay. Apparently the bottleneck at the moment is Apple and Google not wanting to share the source code of the wallet (I’m no programmer but they said something like that in the meeting) but once that is resolved states will be able to start using that for drivers licenses, car taxes, fishing licenses and everything else
This products sounds like its gonna become an addon for the neuralink where your eyes work as the camera, basically giving the capacity to analize everything on sight and doing a bunch of things from your brain
The other problem with this product is that it relies on the company completely to work. If the company making it goes bankrupt, then you no longer have the AI which makes both of these things essentially paperweights.
These AI are nothing like EDI from Mass Effect. They're more like early models of the VI - Virtual Intelligence from Mass Effect, glorified street directories.
- Correction, in Mass Effect they're called VI not SI (Simulated Intelligence).
He literally didn't say they were, he said that in theory an LAM would be something that does what EDI does, that the direction they are heading in is comparable. He was saying that what these can do is not at that point
@@shortbreadhead they wouldn't be actually. if the VI can follow instructions to do things is very different from the VI coming up with instructions on their own like an intelligent independent entity, which would be AI.
actually the virtual intelligence term is very good for these systems that are designed to provide an appearance of intelligence, while still being predictable clockwork mechanisms (provided you know the input you know what comes out, most chatbots and such _hide_ what are the inputs from you to keep up the appearance, this is what leads to ai bros coming up on chatgroups and saying that they cracked the code and made chatgpt self aware by giving chatgpt inputs that make it say that it's self aware).
@@lasskinn474 You're both misreading what I'm trying to say as well as reading far too much into this.
What I was meaning is that he was saying that IN AN IDEAL WORLD an LAM would be great IF it were capable of what EDI can do, and that this is how he would hope it progresses to but right now it is nowhere near that, in the slightest, but it shows potential that there is a chance that it could one day hopefully reach the point where it RESEMBLES that of what EDI is capable of.
He was only using EDI as an example, a reference point for viewers as a template for what he means he hopes it could reach a similar level of functionality and practicality. It does not mean he was saying that he thinks that it will do exactly what EDI can do, it does not mean that he is saying the two function at their core identically.
It is not that deep.

Good news! In some states you can do exactly what you described with your identification. I believe it is called real ID and it is an app where you can upload all of your identifications, bus passes, parking passes and anything else.

Tony Soprano isn’t in the “mafia”. He’s in the waste management business. Everybody immediately assumes you're mobbed up. It's a stereotype, and it's offensive. There is no mafia.

how about these companies don't release unfinished pieces of junk. I saw the review yesterday, I was genuinely excited about the product. but he shows off what it can and can't do. I think you did a great job of highlighting how it's only $200 for a gamble of what the device MIGHT be in the future. this is a totally fair summary. It's unfinished and it still costs $200, a lot better than that stupid projector pin thing that cost $700 plus a monthly subscription. Tech companies, game companies, car companies need to get their shit together and stop abusing consumers.
Honestly, at the end of the day, these people need to understand that you can't just make something, charge an assload of money for it, have it be an additional device that you carry around for your average person, and expect there to be a positive review for it if you haven't tested it versus other competition if they're even is any, or versus anything that already exists, like a smartphone for example which literally does every single damn thing they're talking about, because you can practically do the same damn thing with Google Lens
