In the near past, the rise of AI technology has reached its peak. There are a lot of new AI tools and they carry new technologies. But when it comes to the hardware part, new AI hardware devices can’t get more attention like AI software. The main reason is that these devices focus on only one field. So, they can’t beat devices like smartphones. There is a discussion in this world now, that can AI replace the smartphone and if not why? In this article, we are going to talk about it.
in the last months, two AI hardware devices have been launched worldwide. They are the Human AI Pin and the Rabbit R1. Rabbit R1 AI works as a chatbox and has some smartphone features. The main fact is that these devices were only important because of the AI technology they use. It is the only important thing in these devices. On the other side, every smart device improves its facilities with new AI technology.
Also, the price of these devices is higher than their actual price tag. In that case, even though the smartphone price may be higher than these devices, we can get multitasking things from them. Smartphones are still using cutting-edge technologies and doing well with new technologies.
Current Market
There are three main AI devices in the market. Among them, the Limitless pendent is still not available to the customers. The R1 and Human Pin can act like a search engine and some other functions can see in them.
The Human AI can act as a mysterious device. You can attach it to a backplate and connect it to the underneath of your shirt. When you ask questions, it can answer loud or can display the answer on the palm. But the price is $700 and it has a $24 per month subscription. The battery is not good and you can’t see the screen in the daytime perfectly.
When it comes to the R1 Rabbit it also acts like Human AI. It has a button to talk and doesn’t have advanced features like smartphones. But the cost is only $199. We can see the new AI Limitless Pendent in the near future. The device can get different colours and it has a protective case. The main task is to record audio. With this, you can make notes, summaries, and reports. When compared with iPhone this is a new feature. Because in iPhone we can’t make notes from the recorded audio. But as per the rumours they are going to add this new feature later in this year.
The makers say that, in the meetings using a pendant for recording audio is better than using your iPhone for it. And the price is pretty good and it is only $99. However, the recording period is limited to ten hours when it is a free tier. Or you can buy an unlimited version for $10 per month.
What is Going to Happen?
When it comes to the iPhone and all other phones they can pretty easily go ahead than these devices. They didn’t have this palm projecting or recording voice notes features but they have other functions that we want in our day-to-day life. And with the iOS 18 Apple will be introduce a lot of new AI features to their iPhones. Ans all other Android devices try to adopt the new AI technologies and give the best things to their customers.
Nowadays Apple tries to get these new updates even for their old-generation phones. The smartphone field is always getting updated and comes with new features. So, in order to survive in this AI generation they also update their devices with the new AI technologies from time to time. In a world like this, the need for this new AI hardware is more limited. People don’t like to give money for a device that is only capable of doing a single thing when they have a while Phone to use.
Some single-purpose devices survive and make a better impact on the market earlier. It happened because they updated with the technology. As per the analyzers and researchers, the new Limitless pendant will be the only one that can get attention. Maybe these devices can improve much better than the current versions and make a better one in the future. But for now, they can’t beat any smartphone and the smartphone is in the first place in the race.
