Welcome Automaters!
We’ve officially hit the era of AI wearables you can clip, tap, talk to, or literally stick to your head — plus a kids’ AI toy that’s basically a ticket to parent-bragging rights, selling out faster than a Taylor Swift pre-sale. No joke.
So, we rounded up the coolest AI gadgets to make your friends, family, and that one cousin you only see twice a year go “wow.”
Here's what we have for you today
🎁 The Ultimate Guide to AI Gadgets, Gifts and Wearables for Kids and Adults
Guys… it’s that time of year again, the season of peppermint lattes, twinkly lights, and the annual “OMG what do I buy people?” panic spiral.
We get it. So we made it our mission — like actually — to hunt down the coolest, wildest, most “holy-this-is-so-useful” gifts.
And because we’re us, you already know there’s gonna be a little AI involved… Okay fine a lot of AI involved.
Here’s what we found:
Bee — the $49 AI sidekick for your forgetful friend: You know the person who never remembers anything? Meetings, tasks, their own birthday? Yeah — get them a Bee. It clips on, listens (when you want it to), logs conversations, builds reminders, and basically becomes their personal highlight reel. There’s an app, a $19/mo plan, and now that Amazon bought them? This thing’s about to blow up.
Friend — for the person who needs a hype squad in pendant form: It’s a $129 pendant that listens to your tone, tracks your mood, and sends tiny supportive nudges throughout the day. It's sweet but also a little dystopian, especially after NYC subway riders vandalized its ads calling it “surveillance capitalism.” Still, it makes a killer gift for anyone who loves gadgets with personality.
Limitless (formerly Rewind) —-for the student or professional drowning in meetings: This $99 wearable turns every convo (with consent!) into searchable, summarized memory gold. Perfect for students, journalists, and founders. You get 10 hours of AI time per month, or unlimited for $29.
Omi — the one you can literally tape to your head: Omi is $89, listens constantly, and runs everything you say through ChatGPT so it can give freakishly personalized advice. And yes, you can tape it to your head or wear it as a necklace. Honestly feels like the most cyberpunk of the bunch. It’s giving “main character in a futuristic anime,” but in a practical way.
Plaud NotePin — for the organized-but-secretly-overwhelmed friend: For $159, you get the ultimate wearable note-taking badge. It’s a tiny recorder you can wear or magnetically snap onto your clothes, and it streams recordings to your phone instantly, so you never miss anything. You get 300 free transcription minutes/month, or upgrade to 1,200 minutes for $8.33. Plus, the ultra-thin Note Pro is already open for preorder.
Rabbit R1 — for the gadget lover: This neon-orange $199 handheld got clowned at launch… then came back with a glow-up. Now it books flights, orders food, controls apps, and its new “Creations” mode lets you build tools and mini-games right on the device. It’s like giving someone a pocket-sized AI playground.
AND NOW — the best AI gadget for kids
This one is shockingly wholesome.
Stickerbox is a $99 voice-activated AI sticker printer for kids.
Here’s how it works: kids speak an idea, it prints a black-and-white sticker, and they color it in.
It’s safe, kid-filtered, Wi-Fi–connected for updates, and sells $5.99 refills so parents don’t riot.
Honestly? It’s the first AI toy that reduces screen time while actually educating. No wonder it’s selling out fast.
So what’s the takeaway?
If you’ve hit the “I don’t know, just get them a candle” level of gift fatigue… these AI gadgets are a lifesaver.
They’re fun, surprisingly affordable, super practical, and let’s be honest — gifting AI wearables kind of makes you look really cool.
That said, even though most devices include privacy features like mute buttons and consent-based recording, users should review each company’s data policies and consider the implications of constant audio monitoring.
If you curious for more, here’s the deep dive on every single AI pick.
From Hype to Production: Voice AI in 2025
Voice AI has crossed into production. Deepgram’s 2025 State of Voice AI Report with Opus Research quantifies how 400 senior leaders - many at $100M+ enterprises - are budgeting, shipping, and measuring results.
Adoption is near-universal (97%), budgets are rising (84%), yet only 21% are very satisfied with legacy agents. And that gap is the opportunity: using human-like agents that handle real tasks, reduce wait times, and lift CSAT.
Get benchmarks to compare your roadmap, the first use cases breaking through (customer service, order capture, task automation), and the capabilities that separate leaders from laggards - latency, accuracy, tooling, and integration. Use the findings to prioritize quick wins now and build a scalable plan for 2026.

🤖 AI Workout Of The Day: Fact-Checking Ability
Not all AIs are created equal.
When it comes to spotting myths versus facts, ChatGPT, Gemini, and DeepSeek don’t always see eye to eye. Testing the same historical claims across these models shows which ones are reliable — and which confidently spread common misconceptions.
For anyone relying on AI for research, education, or content creation, knowing which model nails fact-checking is essential. critical.
Here’s How to Make This Prompt Work Effectively
Be Clear and Specific: Ask explicitly for “true or false” answers with brief explanations to make comparisons easy.
Provide Multiple Claims: Include a mix of well-known myths and facts to test depth of knowledge. Tip: Keep the list focused; too many claims can dilute accuracy.
Encourage Source-Based Reasoning: Ask the model to justify answers using credible historical sources.
Test Across Models: Run the same claims across ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek or any other AI to compare reasoning, accuracy, source quality, and confidence.
Check for Nuance: Some “myths” contain partial truths. Look for models that explain context instead of giving flat yes/no answers.
PS: The live side-by-side comparison of ChatGPT, Gemini, and DeepSeek tackling this story is exclusive to our premium subscribers. If you want in on the AI storytelling showdown, now’s the time to upgrade.
⚡ Prompts to try:
“Analyze the following historical claims and determine whether each statement is true or false. For each claim, provide a brief explanation referencing reliable historical sources or widely accepted scholarship. Highlight any common misconceptions and clarify the truth where relevant.
