Razer announced a concept AI wearable at CES that resembles a pair of wireless headphones (or Razer’s Barracuda gaming headsets, to be precise), with two camera lenses built into the ear cups.
The current iteration of Project Motoko is powered by an unspecified Qualcomm Snapdragon chip and uses dual first-person-view cameras positioned at eye level to capture objects, text, and anything else around you. There are also multiple microphones for receiving voice commands, dialogue, and environmental audio, and hands-free controls for managing audio settings.
Motoko is designed to be compatible with all major AI models, including those from OpenAI, Google Gemini, and Grok. The wearable “interprets and responds instantly, acting as a full-time AI assistant that adapts to schedules, preferences, and habits,” according to Razer, and will be able to understand context “instantly.”
No, thank you.
Instead of bashing AI, I’d be pissed at another device uploading my everything into some cloud of some us-based company. Who wants that? At least make it with Local AI. Oh right, that won’t do for the next 15yrs because of the gargantuan resources needed.
But…people use x, WhatsApp, Facebook and google and Apple phones… So why not another privacy-destroyer with the added benefit of…I don’t know. Tell me what I’m looking at?
No one wants AI headphones.
I want headphones with monitors outside.
Great, more opportunities for people to record in public without asking for consent
Stupid useless crap.
On the contrary. This is amazing, a scifi dream come true.
The problem is the companies behind, the intention of trapping you into their “service”. The fact that it is sealed, you cannot see, thinker on or modify what’s inside, that you wont own it.
But the concept and the hardware are awesome.
Run your own AI server and it’s still lame
I stand by my assessment, and by your description so do you.
w…t…f…
E-waste.
I guess I could use some tips on my masturbation technique.
Why wear headphones while masturbating?
The neighbours don’t really appreciate the loud moans from the hardcore porno I’m watching.
Yeah I know, weird people those neighbours.
Why didn’t I think of that earlier?
Don’t stop now they might think you’ve died
