LUCY Stock: What to Know About the ChatGPT App
Called Lucyd, Innovative Eyewear’s voice-enabled app allows users to have their questions answered by ChatGPT, the famous chatbot. Wearers ask their questions into a microphone built into Innovative Eyewear’s glasses.
ChatGPT’s answers are disseminated through the speakers of “hearables” made by other firms, such as Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) AirPods. Alternatively, ChatGPT’s answers will appear on users’ smartphones.
LUCY’s app is available both on Apple’s iOS system and Alphabet’s (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) Android system.
Innovative Eyewear’s Patent Application
The application to the U.S. Patent Office involves software that enables the use of one or multiple chatbots through smart devices. In response to users’ questions, the software selects relevant data from chatbots and responds in “text, audio, and image” form.
Entitled “SYSTEM, APPARATUS, AND METHOD FOR USING A CHATBOT,” the application covers a system that provides “artificial intelligence voice accessibility on Bluetooth-enabled eyewear,” the company stated. Innovative Eyewear says that it thinks it’s the first eyewear company to have developed such a system.
