And the basic idea I started with is, okay, let's reimagine computing from a blank sheet. And how do we make it wiser and healthier? And okay, so how do you make an operating system that isn't addicting and distracting and just trying to steal all your attention? And so there's this whole side of the software. And then at the hardware, how do we kind of

change its ergonomics how do we change the way it emits radiation but the biggest one was how do we change your relationship to its light how do we make it get rid of its junk light it's blue light and flicker make it possible so you can be outside so you can get natural light which is the best form of light there is um

And then over time, how can we have a bit of healing light with photobiomodulation, which is some of these longer infrared frequencies? We don't have that in this version, but that's something that we're heading towards. And so the journey here was basically creating a computer screen that doesn't produce light yet. You can see it. Right.

but the problem is they have blue light, they flicker. Yeah. Um, and you can't use them outside in the sun. Right. And my, my whole thing here is that deeply actually affects your sleep, your metabolism, your physiology. We, we, we could get into that, but yeah, with Jack and Alexis, and there's this small niche of computers, um, like the Kindle and so on.

But the problem is they're so incredibly slow, you can't do much on it. You can read Harry Potter. The actual screen technology of the Kindle, it's called e-ink or e-paper, literally only can refresh at one or two FPS. And so you can take notes, you can read Harry Potter and change the page, but you can't scroll, you can't type, you can't have video. It's super, super laggy.

And so the core thing that we invented is a way to make these paper-like reflective computer displays. You could never get that on a Kindle, what that thing is doing. No chance at all. And so basically what we did is we made it as fast as an iPad, but it is a screen you can use outside of this. So crazy, dude. And so-

The core insight here was normal computer screens are artificial. They try to be, they're like a flashlight. They shine light in your eyes to stand out. That's great for Netflix and video games and making really overstimulating colors. But that's not how it works in nature. Everything in nature is reflective. you know, it's like a piece of paper, whatever, you're looking outside.
