It’s not that I think that’s a bad idea, but the OSR2+ caters to a totally different and much smaller audience. The issue is that sometimes people ask for new features, but displaying that feature in a way that is not confusing to a much larger audience than the OSR2+ audience is the challenge. It means that features like this need an entire UI developed that works on all devices. It also needs a way to notify the probably 80% of users who wouldn’t use that device what it is, and then make sure that when they do try it, they don’t get confused by it and think we invented something that was very frustrating. While the other 20% praise us for this awesome new feature, it is complicated to try to bring this interesting technology to the wider audience.
The compromise is that sometimes these kinds of great features are not able to be included because we have limited screen real estate and focus on the most impactful features. For us, those are the porn sync-related feature (which it seems you don’t use) and the AI girlfriends, which has been a real success in terms of usage and I think the mid term future, voice control.
What would be great is if people who make software like integrate our machines via API, which is a win-win. They can profit from our audience (if its paid), and we don’t have devote our limited resources into features that are not quite as mass market as we’d prefer.
That is exactly what is happening with funscript.org for example and also Synsual.ai. Funscript offers all kinds of things that we don’t offer because it is the only thing that they do. Meanwhile, we need to invent hardware, manufacture it, deal with shipping and tariffs (fun, the server infrastructure, the ecom website, and customer service, etc.
Same with Synsual.Because all he does is AI girlfriends, you end up with all kinds of features that we will never be able to give our customers. We needed to pick only the most impactful AI girlfriend features, especially because we offer them for free.But for those guys who are super into it, he offers them a whole new level of AI girlfriend functionality.
Let’s cross our fingers that someone sees this opportunity (which I think they will) and develops something that gives you and others like you this more advanced set of features.
We are always here to assist people with questions they have about our API. I’ll even link it here incase this thread attracts just that person:
