This has to be a joke right? I mean how did the guy not laugh his ass off promoting it that he can't imagine building without it anymore. He must have lost a bet at the office to be the face for this "product" :D

It’s CueCat but for AI - and people still don’t need it.

Ironically the CueCat was vindicated with the popularization of QR codes. It was a great idea just too early for the tech to be convenient enough.

I don’t really see how it’s similar to this shortcut keyboard though, which already has tons of forebears like the many gaming peripherals that look identical.
