Ughh more disposable shit that capitalists are trying to peddle on us for a quick profit
Why do news sites always eat this shit up? The cycle is the same:
- Announce a half baked idea but give it a fancy sounding name
- Demo something that seems vaguely cool and hype it up enormously, especially in how it is useful for daily life or can replace a daily tool you use 2.5 collect a ton of money from venture capital daddies
- Produce a whole bunch of it as cheaply as possible
- Hype it up as much as possible so you get a customer base before it comes out
- Release it, make $$$
- Close up shop within two years because people will realize it’s just a scam, isn’t revolutionary, and won’t do anything useful for them.
- Most of the sold devices end up in the ocean within 2 years
What’s the news here? It’s just a vague announcement with the greatest of Buzzwords on the worst of all platforms, namely TED.
