Its Premium users, who pay $10 a month or $80 a year, can now receive a &#8216;Daily Readiness Score,&#8217; which is based on factors such as their activity level, heart rate variability, and recent sleep. It&#8217;s essentially an AI personal health coach, pinging you to suggest when it&#8217;s a good time to exercise or maybe lie down for a while.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to the dystopian future where an AI-powered bracelet ratifies the legitimacy of napping. Mind the sarcasm, but it almost feels like Fitbit is sitting on your wrist, politely bullying you into better health choices. The latest feature roll-out, known as the &#8216;Daily Readiness Score,&#8217; is like your own pocket AI nag, morosely observing whether you had a good night&#8217;s sleep or if you&#8217;ve been moving about enough.<\/p>\n<p>If you dread the judgmental glance from your Fitbit for skipping a gym day, imagine having it chip away at your self-esteem every day for a cool $10 a month or $80 a year. Despite its promises of privacy, it&#8217;s difficult not to compare Fitbit to a sort of familial Orwellian nightmare, always watching, always judging.<\/p>\n<p>So, if the idea of having your health monitored by an artificially intelligent robot coach doesn&#8217;t give you a peculiar version of tech-induced performance anxiety itself, then by all means, this may just be the ticket for you. Your fitness data, heartbeat, and sleep cycle, everything falls under the perplexingly prying gaze of this \u2018Daily Readiness Score\u2019 feature. It won&#8217;t just tell you when you should probably kick off for a run, but it might even kindly suggest when it feels like you should lie down and rest.<\/p>\n<p>Say hello to the new age of tech-invaded privacy, where the only thing that stands between you and a judgmental AI personal health coach, is a single click to sign up for Fitbit&#8217;s premium service. Isn&#8217;t it quaint how the most private parts of life, such as rest and relaxation, suddenly seem patentable and available at an annual price?<\/p>\n<p>Kudos, Fitbit, for bringing a futuristic dystopia to your wrist, because who wouldn&#8217;t pay to have their lethargy and loss of motivation quantified and broadcasted daily? <\/p>\n<p>To conclude, say what you will about Fitbit\u2019s marketing genius, this level of personalized nagging takes the concept of health and wellness to an all-time \u2013 and potentially anxiety-provoking \u2013 high. But then again, if you&#8217;ve ever wanted to live in a sci-fi movie, this might be your golden ticket.<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/fitbit-app-ai-personal-health-coach\/\">Read the original article here: https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/fitbit-app-ai-personal-health-coach\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Embrace the dystopia: Fitbit&#8217;s AI arm-candies now ping you into fitness or naps.
