A World Where You Can Take Artificial Intelligence Everywhere | Imran Chaudhri | TED
This video is about a new kind of wearable device that is built entirely from the ground up for artificial intelligence and it’s completely standalone. The speaker, Imran Chaudhri, who used to work at Apple designing devices, believes that future technology should disappear and become invisible.
The device is completely standalone and does not need a smartphone or any other device to pair with it. It interacts with the world the way you interact with the world, hearing what you hear and seeing what you see. It is completely private and fades into the background of your life. The speaker says that the experience is screenless, seamless and sensing, allowing you to access the power of compute while remaining present in your surroundings.
The speaker gives examples of how this device can be used. For instance, you can ask the device questions about objects in the real world or get a summary of your day’s meetings. The device can also be used to help you with your health and fitness goals. The speaker emphasizes that the AI is constantly learning and evolving, and that this technology has the potential to transform nearly every aspect of our lives.
