What if cameras, but always on? This is the apparent thought process behind one of Google’s new offerings, Clips, which was announced at a product launch in San Francisco last night.
In short, Google Clips is a constantly-watching camera that uses artificial intelligence to capture images automatically. You set it up to recognise you and your loved ones, turn it on, and go about your life. The 55g cube then uses AI to decide whether something that’s happening would make a good picture and if so, it records a short clip. It also costs $249 (£189 to you and me).
