I completely feel the frustration. When I black out and wake up naked in a strange alley, covered in someone else's blood, with no recollection of how I got there, or what happened in the last 2 hours, usually the last thing I _do_ remember is setting my phone down to watch a UA-cam video while I eat or something, and the edge of my finger touches the edge of the screen and starts playing a new video. There's just something about technology acting in ways you don't want it to that ignites a white hot rage.
A shame that they went through the trouble of making a competent set of display glasses and then saddled them with silly AI features. Same problem as the Vision Pro, they didn't think about use cases. We have this cool piece of tech, but what are people actually going to use this for in their daily lives? Will it be like a secondary display for your phone for things like directions and notifications, similar to a smartwatch? Can you use it for media consumption, or even gaming? People forget the reason we have phones isn't because they're cool, it's because they can do tons of practical things and solve lots of problems in daily life, in addition to leisure activities like media consumption and gaming. What do these glasses do? Do they do it better than a phone?
LOL What did Linus's wife do to you? She'd have to visit him in the sanitorium assuring him the glasses and R1 are gone, all while he's in fetile position, rocking back and forth in a corner, frothing at the mouth.
The thing that looks odd is that the left frame has a normal white border, but the right frame doesn't, so looks slightly larger. If you look at 13:44 for example, because they don't look symmetrical, they just look odd.
For me it's actually a bit unsettling to watch. Most problems were OpenAI software limitations related, and mostly because he's using it with a millionaire-without-patience attitude.
@@nddragoon I'd argue not millionaires, because chances are they'll rather let someone design a model for them that'd have proper speech recognition honestly.
If they need to have a tap function, I think it would make sense to put the sensor behind your ear where the battery is. It should be much more stable tapping from back there.
I really like how they did the display, not a waveguide but still more compact than the birdbath optics on other ar glasses... the rest of it is well...

@@verakoo6187 because Intel made such glasses a decade ago, and they actually used a tiny projector.

"Old Man Linus yells at cloud (-based tech junk)" is my favorite genre of LTT video. As an avid user of LLMs, I felt every single moment of frustration deep in my soul.
I saw one use case where a person with memory loss uses it to document their life and uses the AI to bring up past events and experiences. For people who suffer from those conditions, that's an application worth investing in
Oof their website is just false advertising central, shows the glasses with the clearly visible screen edited out, and shows what you will see as taking up most of the lens... Scammy
I tested over 30 different types of ai glasses and founded the AR and virtual realm and I have never come across someone as honest as you:) worth a subscribe there!
The problem with these is it's such an expensive inconvenience to basically semi-automate what you'd just normally google, or use an app for. It doesn't really save time or anything.
Worst part is, the whole camera functionality works just fine with the Google Lens app. They should just use that instead of being Yet Another OpenAI Wrapper.
anything with the premise of ai is just some wrapper that could be easily be done on a phone with the benefit of not needing lousy hardware. ai sucks tho, so it failed from the nest
Once again asking why or who rotated one of the light cubes in the background so that it no longer aligns with the other 2 to correctly resemble the ShortCircuit logo. Why was this changed after the Dell Latitude 9440 video? THERE'S A MYSTERY AFOOT!
10:58 "I swear to god, Vance, your job is so f***ing safe" xD This is such a good line against **AI stealing our jobs** in the context of these glasses
The most SAD thing about that is the fact, that Intel already made glasses, which had all AI I wanted (they had none, as far as I'm concerned). They were beautiful, and were designed not to steal your data, but to actually make your life easier, like smartwatches - but even better. And they never sold those, because why the he'll would they sell something actually useful ? (Team red here). (Verge had exclusive videos about those).
man I just want the Google Glass to come back in a new form. They looked like glasses minus the small reflector for the screen. Give me a hands free display!

"Old Man Linus yells at cloud (-based tech junk)" is my favorite genre of LTT video.
As an avid user of LLMs, I felt every single moment of frustration deep in my soul.
they're a small company, they've still got to work on those little details like not getting repeatedly compromised
1:02 LINUS PERRY THE PLATYPUS?
I saw one use case where a person with memory loss uses it to document their life and uses the AI to bring up past events and experiences. For people who suffer from those conditions, that's an application worth investing in
"You look like kindof a dingus."
The socks, sandals, and bleached hair already do that, the glasses can hardly make it worse.
Oh, they do make it A LOT worse!
10:32 I burst out laughing when the assistant tried to push GS1 codes on Linus. :DDD
Oof their website is just false advertising central, shows the glasses with the clearly visible screen edited out, and shows what you will see as taking up most of the lens... Scammy
omg you’re right. They actually look wearable on the website. What a gross misrepresentation of their product. Ew.
first red flag was the word "AI" being its one key """feature"""
10:58 Linus: "Shut up! Okay"
Linus: “These feel preettty cheap”
Also Linus: *let’s see if the frames can do yoga*
Strong, “am I not turtle enough for the turtle club?” energy.
Those glasses are a call back to B.E.N. from Treasure Planet.
Linus acts like a old man struggle with siri in this
Those glasses look so goofy, they turn Linus' frustration into a hilarious comedy performance.
I tested over 30 different types of ai glasses and founded the AR and virtual realm and I have never come across someone as honest as you:) worth a subscribe there!
Linus: damages the device in the first few seconds. Also Linus: why isn't this thing working?
The problem with these is it's such an expensive inconvenience to basically semi-automate what you'd just normally google, or use an app for. It doesn't really save time or anything.
Linus being angry at AI should me a new meme.
I really love it lol
Worst part is, the whole camera functionality works just fine with the Google Lens app.
They should just use that instead of being Yet Another OpenAI Wrapper.
anything with the premise of ai is just some wrapper that could be easily be done on a phone with the benefit of not needing lousy hardware.
ai sucks tho, so it failed from the nest
@@warmoaran3 They are desperate for "the next smartphone" because they have to pretend that endless growth of tech companies is possible.
Once again asking why or who rotated one of the light cubes in the background so that it no longer aligns with the other 2 to correctly resemble the ShortCircuit logo. Why was this changed after the Dell Latitude 9440 video? THERE'S A MYSTERY AFOOT!
10:58 "I swear to god, Vance, your job is so f***ing safe" xD
This is such a good line against **AI stealing our jobs** in the context of these glasses
The most SAD thing about that is the fact, that Intel already made glasses, which had all AI I wanted (they had none, as far as I'm concerned). They were beautiful, and were designed not to steal your data, but to actually make your life easier, like smartwatches - but even better.
And they never sold those, because why the he'll would they sell something actually useful ? (Team red here).
(Verge had exclusive videos about those).
man I just want the Google Glass to come back in a new form. They looked like glasses minus the small reflector for the screen. Give me a hands free display!
They should market this as Linus-Pissing Glasses.
A.d.i.d.a.s. is a KoRn song
It's right up there with Foxtrot , Unicorn , Charlie, Kilo by the Bloodhound Gang
@nobodytoyou4887 bloodhound gang has so many underrated bangers
Not exactly cool to say anymore but I Wish I Was Queer So I Could Get Chicks is an insane statement for a song
@@Ramonatho"a lapdance is so much better when the stripper is crying" is an interesting one too
I sure wish someone would come out with adjustable-focus glasses again such as were briefly offered by SuperFocus and then Adlens years ago...
Products like this are born when people:
1. Overestimate the capabilities of AI.
2. Underestimate the portability and practicality of a mobile phone.
They find some VC fund with more money than sense that they can fleece while the fad is still somewhat hot
