As ChatGPT advances across the tech sector, it enters a brand-new market: smartwatches. Amazfit, a fitness equipment company, has announced that its GTR4 device will have generative AI.
According to a recent demo on LinkedIn, ChatGPT will appear in the GTR4’s menu as ChatGenius. You may ask it anything from there. In the video, a person is seen enquiring about how to enhance their jogging efficiency. Then, in seconds, ChatGenius provides a lengthy response that may be read by spinning the watch face crown. Tap the screen to ask a new question and remove the existing answer. You can even ask ChatGenius how your day is going, and it will respond with your daily step count and heart rate.
Little information on ChatGPT’s functionality on the Amazfit GTR4 outside of the demo is available. According to some reports, you may use it like any other smartwatch to ask for general information like the weather forecast or traffic. Also, which additional Amazfit products will gain the feature? The video refers to ChatGPT functionality. The United States is currently the only confirmed region, depending on the watch model and your location.
Inquiries regarding ChatGPT support’s availability and other features were made to Amazfit. For example, can it display numerous data, or is it restricted to a certain number of items? If we hear back, we’ll update this story.
First-party backing
Amazfit outperformed the industry’s top tech companies by integrating generative AI into a wearable on a first-party basis. The Apple Watch’s watchGPT app is the substitute for ChatGPT in third-party applications (opens in a new tab). The process is the same. You launch the app, ask questions, and receive a lengthy response. There are some obvious changes, though.
To begin with, it costs $3.99 to use, as opposed to being free with Amazfit. Yet, you can “share the consequence of your contact” with others through text, email, or social media messages. It is still being determined if the GTR4 can do the same. In either case, Amazfit has successfully pushed limits earlier than anyone else. It will soon be possible for companies like Apple or Google to support first-party generative AI on their wearables. After all, the technology is already there in browsers and search engines.
