When I first started covering AI at Azmotech, I had little idea it would grow so big and be integrated into everyday products. While ChatGPT initiated the consumer AI revolution, innovations like the Humane AI Pin and rabbitAI have elevated AI to a whole new level.. Just as I was beginning to adjust to the notion of Microsoft including a specialized Copilot Key on Windows laptops, when we were surprised with a new feature that caught my attention.. Now even peripherals are not safe, all thanks to Logitech.
You heard that correctly: Logitech is coming out with a mouse that features a dedicated AI button. That’s right, the new Logitech M750 Signature AI Edition has a button you can press to launch the new Logitech Prompt Builder, a new free app found in the company’s Logi Options + app.
While the mouse itself is kind of special with an AI key, the Logitech Prompt Builder is the real deal.
The Amazing Potential of ChatGPT at My Fingertips
As much as I love using AI like the next person, I dislike opening a new browser tab for ChatGPT every time I need to search something up. Logitech’s Prompt Builder eliminates this inconvenience.
After a quick download, all I had to do was assign a mouse key to the shortcut, and there I was. Getting the mouse with the dedicated AI button isn’t necessary. Use your existing Logitech mouse to have ChatGPT in the palm of your hand.
The app serves as a chatbot interface for the popular ChatGPT chatbot. It achieves this by opening a neat pop-up window that allows you to converse with the bot and do much more. I just had to select the text, and Prompt Builder automatically pasted it! However, this isn’t the main focus.
In addition to interacting with the friendly AI bot, Prompt Builder includes Recipes. These are essentially pre-defined prompts you can provide to ChatGPT alongside your text. I had a lot of fun with the four recipes, which enabled me to rephrase paragraphs, rewrite them, compose and respond to emails, and even create bullet points.
To encourage creativity, the app also offers the ability to create custom recipes that take your prompt, input, and parameters so you can communicate with ChatGPT. While some users faced issues opening the Prompt Builder on their systems, I fortunately did not encounter such problems on my MacBook. This naturally led to me using ChatGPT much more in an hour than I had in the entire previous year.
Do This (Hardware Innovation) Really Needed?
I’ll be honest with you. AI holds significant value for me. While I do appreciate chatbots guiding me on writing tips, I also strongly support human creativity. I understand this debate has been ongoing for a long time. Although Logitech’s Prompt Builder brings AI literally to our fingertips, I can’t shake the feeling that it might be excessive.
Nevertheless, Logitech has already released the new M750 AI Edition, priced at $49. While you can purchase it now, you can also experiment with the Logitech Prompt Builder if you own a compatible mouse. Although the company hasn’t provided a comprehensive list of compatible mice, it functions perfectly on my Logi M337.
