Amazon has introduced two new personal AI devices called Bee, capable of continuously listening, transcribing, and analyzing conversations. The $75 Bee Frontier can be worn as a wristband or clipped to clothing, while the $100 Bee Eclipse attaches to the back of a smartphone. Both devices generate conversation summaries, highlight recurring themes, and suggest actions or purchases.

However, Amazon assures that the audio data is never stored, and users retain the option to delete transcripts and summaries. The Bee Frontier boasts noise-filtering technology that can distinguish important sounds from background noise, even in challenging environments. The devices will be available starting Thursday, with the Bee Eclipse following soon after.
