We're planning on getting a phone-carrying lanyard and she will just carry her phone around her neck with Be My Eyes^0 looking out the rear camera, pointed outward. She's DeafBlind, so it'll be bluetoothed to her hearing aids, and she can interact with the world through the conversational AI.

I helped her access the video from the presentation, and it brought her to tears. Now, she can play guitar, and the AI and her can write songs and sing them together.

This is a big day in the lives of a lot of people whom aren't normally part of the conversation. As of today, they are.

That's definitely cool!

Eventually it would be better for these models to run locally from a security point if view, but this is a great first step.

Absolutely. We're looking forward to Apple's announcements at WWDC this year, which analysts predict are right up that alley.
