  • The biggest addition is the inclusion of proactive AI, which is designed to surface reminders and other useful information based on factors like the weather, your location, calendar items, or, eventually, recent purchase history. That means, for example, that the Qwen AI Glasses S1 might tell you to bring an umbrella before leaving the house if rain is expected, or it might remind you to correct your posture while you’re working.

    Alibaba even says that future updates might use information like your recent purchase history to tell you to drink water if you’ve consumed too much caffeine or even assess traffic in real-time to tell you if you should leave from work early to avoid getting stuck.

    That’s okay, China can keep it.

  • But second, I compared to the same level - I stopped at infrastructure. I didn’t consider the costs (energy or otherwise) of building a solar panel or power plants in the same way I didn’t consider the costs of a frying pan, a hob, or farms.

    Which also uncomparable because like i said, we can forage and cook(or eat it raw) with no modern tools or money required, robot can’t forage sunlight without modern tech. Like you said, it’s a silly comparison that doesn’t make sense at all, which is what i trying to point out.

  • There’s something very very off with this calculation, because you calculate the whole process of getting the energy for the human part but didn’t also calculate the energy needed to build a solar panel which require a factory which require mining which also require transportation. Is the efficiency still better then? I don’t really know, but for us human we can just go out and forage some fruits and veggies and fungi without all those modern infrastructure, robot can’t forage sunlight.
