We are announcing the development of our LLM-powered smart watch, called Rist. We're developing an open, cloud-based LLM operating system that makes it easy for users to connect their own LLM workflow endpoints, enabling custom tool us

You're right. Parents can google it and explain it to their kid. Parents can find the answer in an encyclopedia, find a book about it, or find a youtube video for them. There are lots of options. I hope we didn't offend you. As pa

We have added a much thicker filter layer for the moderation, so it should be working much better now.

This has been fixed now. Thank you for pointing it out.

Thank you for this. We are fixing this now.

For questions their parents know the answers to, absolutely. That is the best idea. But the alternative to an LLM chatbot isn't their parents, it's Google. And Google has been showing kids pornography for decades. So, why not give

We will think more about that. Maybe we can allow parents to comment, rate, or correct responses in the child's logs. Thank you for the feedback and suggestion.

I use LLMs to answer questions every day, and I've found it to be healthier than Google where the average age for kids to stumble across adult content is 12.

It's short for Aristotle, so the pronunciation may be different.

I have heard of books, but my kids prefer to have a large percentage of the knowledge of books on their wrist, such that if they see a clam at the beach and want to know about it, we don't need to wait until library day on Tuesday.

Thank you, this is an easy fix. We will add this change ASAP.

That is good. Our goal to be competitive is to be cross-device and to try to give parents a level of control over information that they've not had before.

Wonderful feedback, thank you. We are a movies only and only on the weekends family as well. - We log the questions asked in each child account for parents to view in the parent account, but the questions are only logged when they're s

That's actually kind of the response I'd want for my kids, but we do need to put in checks for potentially sensitive topics like this. Ideally, parents can have it in their moderation settings to determine what perspective, if any

Thank you for the feedback. I will check out Kagi. Ideally, I don't want my kids to have access to the links. I'd prefer if it's just the answer. Then it's easy for them to do voice only over the Apple watch. They don&#x

They aren't in print anymore for 2025, but World Book is here: https://www.worldbook.com/world-book-encyclopedia-2025?srslt... But even if it was only $100, imagine having all of that information and more in a watch on

This is a good idea. I suppose it will depend on whether or not the user has family around, but I like the idea of having clever ways like this of encouraging interaction with humans. Like if it is asked for a recipe, it returns one, then s

You're right. Libraries are also available for free to read through World Book and others. I'm excited though for my kids to be able to identify birds right in the forest by asking their watch.

You're right that it does answer "what happened to ___". We'll work on that. I suppose this is a benefit to no links or photos, but decisions about whether to provide information like this and whether or not to tell them

For my own kids, I think I'd prefer it not to instruct the child do do anything in any circumstances, unless they explicitly ask how to do something. In cases of health emergencies, I think it's important for my kids to be able to

We want parents to make decisions about these things as much as possible. I don't have an issue with my kids getting details on human anatomy, as long as it's not pornography. But everybody is different.

We'll keep testing and working to improve it. Thank you for the feedback.

I imagine the reason social media isn't regulated is because they don't market to kids even though kids use it.

by andrewdug 1y ago
I appreciate this concern. I definitely don't want another layer of tech between myself and my kids. We will reconsider our marketing. I think the issue though is that even though kids use Google, Google doesn't market for kids, s

These are great points. The #1 concern I have as a parent and that I hear from other parents is that AI tools will do what technology has been doing for the last 20 years: replace human connection. That is exactly what we are trying to avoi

Thank you for the feedback. Glad to hear it didn't go into detail on human anatomy. We haven't been able to get it to tell us where to find graphic videos of a man being shot to death, but we will keep testing and work to improve

I may be misunderstanding your message. Are you saying I couldn't be bothered to write the app?

by andrewdug 1y ago
What do you oppose about it? Is it the idea of having an AI tool interact with kids at all? Or something else?

I will look more into their brand. Thank you.
