Screenshot of YouTube video (paused at 1:28) showing a young woman in pigtails, dressed in a yellow top with a wide neckline and blue jeans, sits cross-legged atop a cooler on a rooftop, with other rooftops visible in the distance. She wears a red pendant with a glowing white light at its center and is smiling at a young man opposite her. The man is wearing an open blue button-down shirt and green pants, gazing downwards with a slight smile.
A compilation of selected comments trashing the microphone-enabled pendant follows, reading:
amazing. at 1:28 you can see the guy decide there won’t be any further dates
The creepy music is doing the exact opposite of what you want this ad to do. You want this to be a normal thing that isn’t weird at all and your music says “black mirror”.
The day you call a listening device “Friend” is the day you lose your humanity
Here comes the next MKBHD worst reviewed product 😂
so basically a bluetooth microphone that listens everything that you say, and that sends it to a chatGPT wrapper.
Don’t need this if you’re schizo already 🥰
To be fair, lots of us have wanted to wear a microphone that sends us lowercase text messages pretending to be our very human friend.
Pretty bold of them to sell this - for $99 no less. Their ad only shows the most superficial answers you could imagine and the necklace is just a microphone… you know, like the one your phone - which you need for this - already has.
At least make a weird AI Tamagotchi or something similar.
At this point it could also just be a phone app.
it should never have been more than a phone app, but tech needs its new groundbreaking technology, the new smartphone, which everyone will have to buy
