Ted’s Take:
Powder is like a personal assistant for gamers, doing all the work of finding the best moments in their streams so they can focus on playing the game. Not only can it create montages of intense shouting moments, but it also offers speech-to-text technology, so gamers don’t have to rely on their memory to find specific highlights. And with the updated “Community Hype” feature, they can see what their fans loved the most. Now, all gamers need is an AI that can make them better at the games themselves!
