I don't know why you guys are complaining, this watch is awesome. It lets you know when you're dead via a helpful alert!

It still works for now and the project will be revived in some way, I'm sure. Nothing to worry about.

To call it 'ending' though is a stretch.

That's only the title and it is only referring to the hype ending, not development of the technology:

Eighteen months later, generative AI is not transforming business. Many projects using the technology are being cancelled, such as an attempt by McDonald’s to automate drive-through ordering which went viral on TikTok after producing comical failures. Government efforts to make systems to summarise public submissions and calculate welfare entitlements have met the same fate.

If you read the article you'll find the author is not claiming we have universally reached the end of AI or its hype cycle yet:

A Gartner report published in June listed most generative AI technologies as either at the peak of inflated expectations or still going upward.

There's a whole section of the article dedicated to answering why this is the case, too. I recommended you read the article, as you seem to have misinterpreted it based on the title.

Surprised there’s still a big enough demand for physical books to be honest.

My impression is that long-form reading is becoming a bit of a niche hobby, and like many niche hobbies will be skewed towards tradition and collection rather than convenience. I know in my circle of friends and family, all the big readers prefer books for the feel, smell and also the joy of collecting and building a personal library. I don't know if you've ever paid attention to online reading communities, but I've noticed that they are also really built around physical books rather than e-books.

Younger generations aren't reading as often, which means reading as a mainstream hobby is becoming increasingly skewed towards older generations who are less likely to use e-readers. For those young people who are big readers it is seen as more of a niche hobby and thus the traditional aspects of it are celebrated more. Sort of like how serious music lovers are often attracted to the collection of older technology like vinyl. The sub-culture that develops around these things often prioritises the celebration of the art and culture over convenience.

Also, e-books just aren't actually very competitive in terms of price despite what you'd think. Often a paperback is cheaper, particularly when you factor in the second-hand market. I use an e-reader but I never actually buy e-books, I always loan them from my library or pirate. If I pay money then it's always for a physical copy.

You might not have the lifestyle to do this, but I find taking a short nap (like 20 minutes) in the early afternoon helps reset my brain and boost my energy levels. It doesn't even need to be a nap, just taking that 20 minutes to lie down and close my eyes can help a lot.

It doesn't need to be coffee, or even high quality coffee, but I agree that having a routine you devote a small amount of time to every morning for a reward at the end is a great way to start the day. It combines meditation and achievement, which are both great boosts to your mental health. Like you, I do the coffee thing but I know other people like to start their day with a run or a workout which has additional health benefits and leaves them feeling more upbeat about the day ahead.

The Life2vec model was trained exclusively on Danish data, which means its accuracy may not translate well to individuals from other countries. As Professor Sune Lehmann Jørgensen from the Technical University of Denmark, who led the research, pointed out, the model's predictions might not be as precise for non-Danish populations.

They are also getting into AI bs.

None of their AI features compromise on user privacy and all can be disabled in settings.

Also it's entirely possible I've just listened to the Pendulum remix too many times lol

I'm not sure if it's the poor quality of the audio in that video, or because I'm so used to the original version, but that remix isn't doing it for me.
