AI is gradually taking over and providing services at public places. I hope they can perform in the same way at Railway Station also and not just at the fancy airports.

we’re planning a three day pop-up in a space that has never been used for retail.
payments, wi-fi, printers, displays, and staff setup all need to work from day one, but there’s no existing infrastructure to rely on.
for anyone who has done this, what usually gets overlooked when turning a temporary space into a working store?

Cameras everywhere and there's no wirless and no smartphone.

We have phone booths everywhere where when you look at one, it displays your name if you have a new message. It can have a color to your name to alert you how important the message might be.

You then go to the booth and you can see the message instantly and then walk away, or voice respond a message back.

At your house, your can look at your monitor or pc where it will show an image if you have a new message. Where you can move closer and it shares the whole thing.

When you sit down at a PC, you don't need to wake it up or even log in, it aleardy knew it was you with cameras litterally everywhere.

Even at the public library, the pc just logs you in. You can have a code if super worried but that's unlikely.

We have no more smartphones, but possible pocket cameras with music playing abilities, note taking and more, no internet required. Or we just have no more smartphones.

It's all Monitors PCs, tablet monitors, or tvs. Where they all have microphones and cameras making them work without touch for responses.

We can even create gestures since we are on camera all the time. Like patting your head to send an auto reply. Or moving your arm up to adjust tv volume, holding it there until it's where you want it.

The cameras could be used for technology only and not for surveillance, though we still have the option to use it for that, lowering our crime amounts.

Where is the buy now button!!!! 😱🤯🥹

OpenAI just launched the Codex Micro — a $230 keypad built with Work Louder to control Codex AI coding agents, and it's OpenAI's first physical hardware ever. Here's the context the slides skip: this isn't the Jony Ive device. That's a separate, still-unreleased product — reportedly a portable, screenless smart speaker with mechanical parts that move on their own. It's being built partly by former Apple engineers, which is exactly why Apple sued OpenAI last week, accusing two current OpenAI employees of stealing trade secrets. OpenAI denies it. Meanwhile, the Micro pairs with OpenAI's newly merged "super app" — ChatGPT, Codex, and the productivity agent ChatGPT Work in one — and Work Louder says quantities are limited. So the timing reads less like a product launch and more like a statement: we're a hardware company now, lawsuit or not. Would you pay $230 to control AI with physical buttons — yes or no?

The Ames Room is a beautifully engineered architectural optical illusion invented by Adelbert Ames Jr. in 1934. When viewed through a monocular peephole, it looks like a perfectly rectangular cubic room. However, the room is actually a skewed trapezoid where one corner is twice as far from the viewer as the other. Walking across the room makes a person appear to miraculously shrink into a dwarf or expand into a giant.

AI is already taking jobs. A teenager is dead after talking to ChatGPT. The same companies building this technology are lobbying for legal immunity before anyone can hold them accountable. Flock cameras are already watching you. Humanoid robots are already in warehouses.

Every time Boston Dynamics posts Atlas, it feels like the future gets a little less fictional. This one is especially wild because it does not look like a “robot demo” anymore - it looks like something that could genuinely step into real-world work. The balance, the coordination, the way it handles physical tasks so smoothly... it is the kind of clip that makes you pause and say, okay, we are really getting there now.
