AI doesn’t make everything better. Just in case tech companies needed to hear that.
So, I only just got into their eco system. The main selling point is it didn’t have subscriptions needed.
Where to from here? When they inevitability add required sub’s.
I recently bought a Garmin to get rid of a $30 Whoop subscription and to get better battery than a smart watch with a Fitbit subscription. Garmin seems to give me everything I needed that the whoop does for only the cost of the watch.
It does mention all health data will be free still so for the time being I’m not opposed to them locking AI behind a paywall. I understand AI cost resources and is expemsive. I however, will not be using that shit. I think the default health insights are plenty for what i do. Granted I’m not a full on athlete like some Garmin users.
As long as they don’t lock what’s available now beyond a paywall I’m okay with this. But overall, I’m sick and tired of subscriptions in general.
Oh it’s Garmin. I misread the title and was wondering why Gemini is adding more AI, as if they don’t already have enough.
Par for the course, everything just have to have AI 🙄
Garmin still exists?
I’m pretty sure they still are a defence contractor in the US, they also are generally the option for biking computers. There are competitors but Garmin has a chokehold on that sector, with other options just feeling worse.
So while their smart watches are more niche than Apple, Samsung etc, they still have found a solid niche in the smart tracking sector.
They’re the best fitness watch you can buy
