What asking it looks like.
Four things it does today. Same box, same voice, no app to open.
heard “Remind me to call Karim tomorrow at nine.”
heard “What’s the weather in Rabat?”
heard “Note that my car insurance renews in November.”
heard “Summarise this video.”
and that fell over at about forty minutes in
which is when we moved the whole thing onto the mini pc
and the memory ceiling stopped being the problem
then we measured it again over a full week
and the numbers held, which surprised us honestly
so that is where the build sits today
- 1 Laptop run failed at 40 minutes.
- 2 Moving to a mini PC removed the memory ceiling.
- 3 A week of measurements held.
“Remind me to call Karim tomorrow at nine.”
It holds the time for you.
Reminders and timers land as a card with a date on it, and it speaks up when the moment comes. You do not open anything.
“What’s the weather in Rabat?”
It goes and looks.
Weather, a page you hand it, a search: it fetches, reads it, and tells you the part you asked for.
“Note that my car insurance renews in November.”
It keeps what matters.
Notes and facts about you stack up in its memory on the cube, and come back months later in the middle of a conversation.
“Summarise this video.”
It does the long reading.
A YouTube video, a research job that runs while you carry on: it folds the whole transcript down to the lines you needed.
Today it also reads a page you hand it, searches the web, and runs a research job while you carry on with something else. Mail and calendar are coming.
