Finally: the days where one has to read a book in one continious session are numbered. With this bookmark one can interrupt reading a book at any time. Also, the bookmark offers you an AI summary of the things that just have been read.

This is such an over-engineered and useless piece of ~~shit~~ tech - so ridiculous that this has to be satire. At least, this still seems to be a concept. Although the article has been posted in March 2025, I have not found any evidence that this is a joke, unfortunately. They seem to be serious with it.

Can I just have the bookmark read everything for me? I’ll just melt into a puddle of lazy stupid.

And there's gonna be ads every 5 minutes. What a fantastic experience.

No, but the second iteration, Bookmark2, will be much thinner and have a longer battery life.

Since that bookmark is supposed to give you an AI summary of what you have read before the bookmarks placing, just place the bookmark at the last page - it probaby will summarize the whole book for you then.

Have you heard about the concept called "an audio book"?

I don’t want it to read to me, I want it to read for me. No thoughts, head empty. Let the AI think for me. I am unnecessary.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
