Looks awesome. Is it from a fixed perspective only? If not should show the camera rotation in the video demos so it's clear how it could be used.

Would be curious to see how it looks from different angles etc. as the light changes.

Funny thing is you are actually the pro [corporate] tech one, not on the side of freedom. Furthermore nobody said anything about crypto - you are seriously grasping at straws. You have said nothing about the products on shelves (billions of dollars in the industry already) argument, only presented crypto as an argument which has nothing to do with the conversation.

> This is _not_ true, as cryptocurrency has already demonstrated.

His whole argument against AI is basically the anti-tech stance: "Well crypto failed that means AI will too" It's coming from a place of disdain for technology. That's your typical Hacker News commenter. This site is like Fox News in 2008 - some of the dumbest people alive

Even if you could solve aging, you could never solve death. Probability and entropy will catch up with you eventually.

I think that most people over a certain age are quite aware of their own mortality, and are looking to bring meaning to the time that they have.

I'll take millions of years instead of 75 thanks

> looking to bring meaning to the time that they have

Everybody says something like this in response to this kind of question about death/aging - or they go all religious on me talking about Jesus etc.

I'm like "what is 2 + 2" and half or more of the people go "I like cake"

3 brands who specialize in branding and I've never heard of any of them.

It's amazing that solving death and aging is not Goal #1 of every rich and poor person on the planet. Death is coming for you and you're trying to get rich? Engaging in politics? Fighting? What's that gonna do when you're falling apart in real time?

We're all dying fast. Medical industry can't stop it either, they don't know how. Nobody does.

Yet nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care.

Why would HN be interested in deleting comments about this? Looks like there was a discussion previously, although not regarding the deal:

That's not the same story, but it leaves a clue:

> Character.AI co-founder Daniel De Freitas is also joining Google with some other employees from the startup. Dominic Perella, Character.AI’s General Counsel, is becoming an interim CEO at the startup.

This story that I shared completes the picture: Character.AI was effectively acquired by Google for $2.7B. Nobody needs to know though you're right, just hide this article and delete any critical replies.
