    I’ve never heard of this “pin” before and am fascinated by it. It does what smartphones already do but less conveniently? How did someone even pitch that in the first place?

      It was at the peak of AI hysteria. You could do a shit on the side walk and say it was AI generated, and youd get VC funding for your next AI powered turd.

      Less conveniently while costing something like $700 plus a monthly $25 subscription.

      I don’t get how it got pitched either.
