And plus, there's a lot of latency issues, of course. So we don't want to risk presenting a completely new way of interacting with devices. Plus, give you another kind of like insecurity of, oh, this is completely new form factor.
SourceAnd you have to learn from start how to use it. And that's why we design our one. We think about, OK, we need to present something that you're already familiar with, but in a new way.
And that's where I'm so happy that communities are getting it, because the first thing I did is I bought nine Tomokochi for my entire design team and engineering team back then. We're even smaller than today, but it was about a year, year and a half ago. I bought nine Tomokochi from Amazon and I sent them as a gift.
And then obviously, you know, we all love the Pokédex and no one has yet made a Pokédex yet. So I think, you know, we want to bring that culture relevance to you. Plus, we know that the most efficient and highly redundant form factor of voice dictation and voice combined and voice interaction is not a weak word.
I don't like weak word because I was I was at one time in a meeting with a couple of Amazon folks. And and obviously we're talking about Alix and obviously they keep saying Alix. And the entire meeting become a mayhem because they all have Alix's speaker around.
And then also a bunch of Alix's start talking to each other. And that's very, very dumb. So I don't I don't want a weak word.
And then what if you don't have weak words and you think about what's being already in use. And then I think I have another example. I'm like, OK, think about what's the most crucial scenario that you need to use voice and voice only.
That was an interesting read! 👍 I like how you’re thinking about making new technology easier to use by connecting it with familiar things. The Tamagotchi idea is pretty cool!
