Friend necklace gets voice and can now talk back
Friend launched the second version of its AI pendant, now equipped with a speaker that allows the device to respond verbally instead of only via text message. The necklace costs $249 and runs OpenAI's latest models, with an optional $10 subscription for extended conversation memory.
WHY IT MATTERS
The update makes the AI companion more interactive and natural to use as a daily companion, while significantly increasing the price and signaling an escalation of the AI-wearables market.
