Just think of all the insider information they’ll gain with cloud connected dictation software. They’ll make a killing on the stock market.
“But they promise they don’t”
Isn’t she the same spinny bitch that wanted to sell mouse subscriptions?
Oh, so this is the person that is responsible for Logitech’s decline.
She came in too late for that. The people responsible hire people like her.
I really hate this framing of “idea that no one had requested”. It echoes the terminally online worthless dumbfuck line of “who asked?” Enough with this shit. No one needs to ask for anything. Ideas are ideas. This is yet another bad one.
Bots eavesdropping? That’s a great way to see all the nerds dead silent on the mandated cam feeds except for the furious typing and occasional smirk. They’re probably working.
Guy at my last job would not speak if the Zoom was making an AI summary. He’d tell everyone up front, turn his camera off and go mute.
I wish I could be that guy. I’m just curious how he got away with it. Surely that behavior pissed off a manager type.
Yeah so copilot taking notes is pretty helpful I agree
This lady seems like such a fucking idiot.
Same one that wants to make your mouse a monthly subscription
You will own nothing and love it, feudal peasants!
Yeah well when you’re clueless you would want backup wouldn’t you
Why though?
And i want to bring a pack of dogs into meetings
Allowed, but they all need to be cuddly politeboys.
Monkey paw finger curls
Granted however the dogs are only polite to the CEO. To everyone else the dogs are murder hobos.
So chihuahuas?
These Psychopathic Tech Oligarchs know that it is only a matter of time before the AI Slaughterbots turn on us, and they’re hoping that their obsequience will save them.
It won’t. Hopefully the Slaughterbots will kill them first.
Cool, can we make it the CEO?
RIP Logitech, no longer my go-to.
They’ve been going downhill for years
I want a live hive of Africanized bees in every board room but we just can’t all have what we want, can we?
Not with that attitude.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Hanneke Faber became CEO of Logitech on December 1, 2023, after leaving her role as group president at Unilever. Since joining the Swiss peripheral manufacturer, Faber has attracted attention for her unconventional ideas about how personal technology should evolve – often with a focus on benefiting shareholders and companies first.
Faber is now best known for proposing the so-called “Forever Mouse” concept – a device with constantly evolving firmware features built on base hardware that customers would purchase only once. According to Faber, users would happily pay monthly or annual subscriptions to access these software-based upgrades. However, no concrete business plans have yet been announced to bring the idea to market.
Regarding pricing, the CEO compared the mouse to a Rolex watch and the software to Logitech’s video conferencing business. A paid subscription is possible, but Faber offered no further details.
What 😄
Yes a subscription service for my… mouse please that sounds like an improvement.
Make all tools obtrusive lets go
I move my mouse and the cursor moves on screen. What other features is she planning to add?
An AI that moves the mouse on your screen so you don’t need to! Now you can go back to work while your mouse doom scrolls for you.
An AI that plays ads when you are idle with the mouse.
Not moving the mouse? Time for an ad.
How is a person so out of touch?
The same reason she thinks that AI should be in meetings…to bad she could be replaced by AI and nothing of value was lost…
previous job at unilever lol
I’d rather have no software with my mouse than this dystopian nightmare.
Yea, their logi+ software was sending out a firmware update or something that was bricking something, so now I use my keyboard and mouse without the software.
sad to see I’ll never buy logitech again. gotta tell all the walmart homies not to either
Came here to post this. This CEO has a lot of amazing ideas…
