I think that they are fighting a battle on too many fronts for a very new company, and getting into hardware tends to be a death knell, so we'll see if it matters. I'm just hoping Mac can basically do what they do but built in to the OS without requiring a 3rd party, seems doable.
They're also the same company that touts privacy so much that people don't realize their queries and context for those queries go to openai.

Which horse you pick in the race?
I think rewind has big advantage here. Though small team execution may play crucial role.
Reminds me of Spotify creating dubbing for their podcasts and wondercraft (YC)
