Dave Is Not AI

Stop Buying This Garbage: Overpriced AI Toys Exposed

21 Dec 2025

Description

AI is suddenly everywhere. Not just in your phone or laptop, but in pins on your shirt, glasses on your face, gadgets in your pocket, and appliances in your kitchen. Every launch promises a sci‑fi future: your phone replaced, your life automated, your routines "optimized" by artificial intelligence.   But once the hype dies down and people actually live with these devices, a different story shows up: laggy experiences, short battery life, awkward interactions in public, and features that quietly stop getting used after a few weeks. In many cases, you're paying a premium—often with a subscription on top—for something your existing phone and a couple of good apps already do better, more privately, and far more reliably.   This isn't an anti‑AI rant. AI can be genuinely useful when it disappears into tools you already use and actually saves time or unlocks something new. The problem is with "AI gadgets" that exist mainly to sell you new hardware. In this piece, I'll break down the most overrated AI devices, why they don't live up to their promises, and how to spot the difference between meaningful innovation and expensive, overhyped tech.
