Ray-Ban Meta, Humane AI pin, Rabbit r1β¦ all have similar USPs, the promise of a multi-modal AI device that takes us closer to an ambient computing future. Design, form factor arguably as important as any tech specs. We havenβt been here in a whileβ¦ exciting time to be alive!
π€πΊπΈ Rabbit's AI Assistant is now reality and a camera wearable might join the party soon! The R1 bot heralds a post-apps era where AI just gets you. Isn't that refreshing? https://t.co/qY13IyeTgj
FROM IMAGINATION TO REALITY! π @Meta just dropped a new ad for their Ray-Ban AI Glasses. A huge leap towards integrating AI into everyone's daily experience. What could NFPrompt be building towards? Better visuals? Metaverse? π Any guesses? π https://t.co/IfiFqki6Rz

After watching the @rabbit_hmi R1 launch party keynote, I'm actually pretty excited to get my hands on one. It was fun to watch @jessechenglyu generate images on MidJourney directly on the device. Taking audio or video notes and sending them straight to the "Rabbit Hole" seems⦠https://t.co/54oLqZiihu

Meta is building a monster w/ practical functionality and a natural form-factor that doesn't suck to use. Wouldn't be surprised if their Ray-Ban business ultimately beats out their own Quest, Apple Vision Pro, all the AI wearables etc for next gen mass adoption hardware π https://t.co/J6PoYX7bAc
