It wasn’t standalone though everything still ran on the cloud. At the time the product came out everyone said exactly the same thing, this product is just an interface for a remote AI so why not just use a phone?
Given the fact it had the battery life of a suicidal mayfly and the capacity to heat itself up to 700° I could forgive you for thinking it was running the AI locally

No of course that’s true, I’m just saying it was an actual product based specifically, and only, around AI. The fact that it was a physical device underscores that.
How many others are there? The AI hype train has suggested we’d already have AGI and there would be no need to pay any workers for anything by now - where is it? It’s nowhere. There’s nothing. The fraud is coming from inside the bubble.

If we have a do get AGI money will become instantly worthless and so there isn’t really any incentive for these companies to actually make AGI.
That’s not quite the same as saying that it’s an impossible target though. But if we want it we’ll have to do it ourselves there’s no way the corporations are going to do it.
