Below are some use cases, some of which could make it into the video, some of which we should build the product around.
(Note: I imagine startups being built to turn the 01 into these, but the first one is simple enough, I think we should just build it in as the default for the light body.)
Lets you offload a bunch of executive functions related to time and memory management— it intelligently orders your lists, batches tasks, and reminds you of scheduled items. "I just promised Ben I would do X." "Okay, I'll remind you of that later."
I imagine telling it everything I need to do, adding items to that list throughout the day, then having it guide me through the list one item at a time. I imagine it answering the question "what should I be doing right now?"
(One of my motivations: I never want to see my full list. It's overwhelming. I want this to break it down into tiny steps, then I just do them.)
Once you've started a task, it checks in with you when that item should be completed (based on its estimate, which could be informed by previous information re: how long it took to finish some task).
User: Hey, here's what I need to do today...
Assistant: Sounds good! I'll add those items to your list in an order that I think would be most effective, then let's start on that first item.
tasks += ... # Add items to the list
tasks[0] # Print the first item on the list# Output: Make coffee.
Assistant: First, let's make coffee. I think that will take you ~5 minutes, so I'll check in with you then.
# I'll use the computer.clock to schedule a reminder for 5 minutes from now.
reminder_time = datetime.now() + timedelta(minutes=5)
computer.clock.schedule(reminder_time, "Ask the user if they've finished making coffee.")... 5 minutes passes ...
Computer: "Ask the user if they've finished making coffee."
Assistant: It's been 5 minutes. Have you finished making coffee?
User: Yes.
Assistant: Great! I hope it's delicious. I'll check that off and we can start on the next item.
tasks = tasks[1:] # Remove the first item from the list
tasks[0] # Print the new first item on the list...
I imagine taking a photo of something, like dry skin, and asking questions about what I can do.
It could do RAG over Medline Plus to give me grounded information. It could use Moondream locally.
RAG over Wikipedia, updates every day (if it's connected to the internet, otherwise updates next time it's connected to the internet).
I imagine building a windmill with it— walking through the steps, it might have access to some schematics? And could help me calculate anything I need to calculate / work with the materials I have access to.
The ultimate build-a-bear— you press its paw and you can learn anything from this. Always speaks very simply.
Interacts with my computer(s) or interpreter(s) to retrieve information / get something done.
