In fact, the design is a move-on of a product by the same designer.
Suggesting it's stupid... I get your point, but I personally thought Alexa was stupid, and that's now a household name.
This thing has a few things going for it. Like the characterisation. Rest assured, there's a decent camera in there too.
And to my mind, if we can agree that the job of the receptionist will be one of the first to go to a machine, then devices of this class might become a viable choice...

For once my employer seems forward thinking. If you have an appointment, you ignore the receptionist and deal with a machine which notifies who you're meeting and prints a visitors pass. Doesn't look like a bear though.

It this the right thread for TV chat? We're moving soon and have convinced the wife that we should get a 4K TV when we move...
So I reckon the budget is max £1500. For that I can get an LG OLED ( LG OLED55B7V) which seems pretty tasty... or should I stick with a QLED for that price? Seems a bit of a minefield. I know I need HDR10 but that's about it. Any recommendations Badgers?
I'm falling apart to songs about hips and hearts...
Yes. Not an expert but I think you should get LG OLED, i would get it in a flash if i had the spare cash. Many badgers say it's good and generally everything i have read about it is good.
Not sure how available it is yet, but HDMI 2.1 is probably worth looking out for if you’re planning to run a Bone X or probably any next gen console through it.
I personally wouldn't buy a new tv that wasn't an OLED. Don't have one yet myself, but we've been using OLED viewfinders on our cameras for years now, and they're a quantum leap up from any other kind of broadcast quality tech.
Still early days for variable refresh support with console games, but that will surely improve. So Freesync support of some kind (I think HDMI 2.1 includes support for that, though I imagine it depends on the manufacturer to implement it) is a really important feature to look for IMO.
Has anyone her tinkered with a Surface Book? I had resolved to treat myself to a new laptop if I got the job I applied for - my Chromebook is dying a death after a ridiculous amount of use over the past few years - and never got around to it.
Surface Pro screen size is a little too small for my liking but I really like the idea of getting a quality 2in1 that I can use for work, writing, and perhaps gaming too (I may need to lose my desktop in the near-ish future).
There really isn’t a lot between the two screen sizes of a Surface Book and Surface Pro (it’s about an inch, from memory), but the Pro’s just under a kilo lighter and a fair bit smaller so easier to fit in a bag.
We switched over to them at work, had a choice of either. I don’t regret picking the Pro at all - you can always plug it into a monitor down the line if you feel you need a bigger screen.
Rubbish for using on a lap though, the kickstand’s great on a desk/hard surface but just doesn’t work on legs etc.!
The Book’s nice, feels quality. The Surface Laptop is also probably worth a look as a bit of a half-way house?
