They can't sell the $699 AI party trick that requires a $24 subscription so they slashed the price to $499. Unfortunately it's still $500 too expensive for what's worth.

Maybe at $10 someone could buy it as a Halloween costume prop and even pay a whole month of subscription just to show off the novelty

Considering modern-day "AI" track records at this, the only thing I'd trust a device like that to do is massively increase poisoning deaths.

They died doing what they loved. Placing their very life into the hands of techbro con artists.
