  • I phrased that wrong, in my first comment I was just poking fun at how companies are adding LLMs to everything for the sake of it, like:

    1. Add LLM integrations
    2. ???
    3. Profit

    And they aren’t doing anything innovative either, they just act as a middleman between you and OpenAI/Google/etc.

    It looks like Kagi assistant is one of those rare cases where the LLM integration does actually make sense, but I don’t think paying $15 more is much better than just opening chatgpt.com in a second tab





  • This is so absurd. The only updates peripherals need are firmware bug fixes. And it’s a standard that these updates are free. Having subscriptions for hardware is kinda dystopic tbh

    From the podcast:

    Some only have a mouse or only a keyboard, but many of them have both. But the thing that shocked me was that the average spend on that globally is $26, which is really so low. This is stuff you use every day, that sits on your desk every day, that you look at every day. That’s like the price of four coffees at Starbucks or less than a Nike running shirt. There is so much room to create more value in that space as we make people more productive — to extend human potential.

    You know why on average people spend so little? Because a mouse is just a mouse. It doesn’t need to do anything besides controlling the cursor. It doesn’t need a “dedicated AI button that launches Logi AI Prompt Builder” (which is just a ChatGPT wrapper btw)

    I don’t want to be that one person that just complains about capitalism under every post, but things like this make it hard. We have already perfected the design of a mouse. But every year publicly traded companies need to make more money than in the previous year, so let’s add subscriptions to everything. And also AI, because investors love it
