No it can’t, there are no ways to detect nutrition from a picture of a peice of food
Why not? at least to the extent that a human can. Some AI model recognizes the type of food, estimates the amount and calculates nutrition based on that (hopefully verified with actual data, unlike in this demo).
All three of these functions already exist, all that remains is to put them together.
Ok, if you take any book, keep it closed, how many times do the letters s, q, d and r appear in the book?
There is no way to know without opening the book and counting, sure, you could make some statisticsl analysis based on the language used, but that doesn't take into account the font size and spacing, nor the number of pages.
Since the machine only has a photo to analyze, it can only give extremely generic results, making them effectively useless.
You would need to open the food up and actually analyze a part of the inside with something like a mass spectrometer to get any useful data.
I feel like that with being photographed. Being in a room full of smartphones, and associating me with them in a large database somewhere. Having someone's kids use tick tock on my home network. Etc etc. We are massively under corporate surveillance, and I despise it.
I... I've never really watched Star Trek. I think I could get into it but I've just never really sat down and watched it. I've probably only seen an episode or two in my whole life.
Yeah, this whole product is an exercise in doing things not because it's more practical than what we already have but simply because we can... for $700 + $24/month... No thanks...
I fully agree, but to think XR is not going to be the next computing platform is a little surprising. A little as I remember a lot of people saying they would never carry a computer around with them too.
For some reason this is making me wish Jobs were still around.
I’d hope he’d have some subtle burns about this product … maybe about how we’re visual animals and you can’t just throw out decades of progress on screen tech and call that innovation. Maybe something about how we’ve got one voice but 10 fingers and two eyes.
A built-in 13-megapixel ultra wide-angle camera can be used to capture photographs and videos
I bet other people won't like the camera any more than they did with Google Glasses.
Photos can be viewed using the “Center” website on any web browser.
Want to see photos? Gotta go to the website. All photos therefore shared. Along with notes, music listened to, reminders .... Nuh-uh!
I mean, it's fun that a techbro thought "isn't the TNG combadge cool?" and actually went and made it, but this was a Youtube video, not a product launch.
