For Immediate Release
December 19, 2023
Meet nexusIn building nexus we've made great strives to keep things similar as we transition away from SyncOS. In the image abouve we see the nexus desktop with a few applications running in the background as symbolized by the icons in Home Row. The nexus menu above the desktop is designed to change depending upon which application is in the forefront, with additional options and items being added as needed for the task at hand. We've also included a search utility which is always accessible, with default settings focusing on searches of local and connected cloud drives. Users will be able to expand their search to the web from this utility, however, we felt the default behaviour should focus on what testing research indicated most of our users utilized the search function for. Web searches initiated from the search utility will be handled by Lexa Search.
Moving to the right of the nexus menu we have weather, time and date information. While weather information is the default behaviour users can customize this widget to present a variety of information, from news headlines to a brief summary of incoming emails, even notifications as they come in from their aOS-powered phone. Speaking of aOS, full compatibility and interoperability exist between the two operating systems, with the expansive software collection represented by the Store being fully accessible to those utilizing nexus on their desktop PCs. We've also kept the nexus Menu focused, eliminating the bloat, distraction and even advertisements some of our competitors see fit to place in such a menu.
While we have removed the recently used list for privacy reasons recently accessed documents, files, applications and other items would typically populate this area of the menu. Links to system functions are prominent, along with a direct line to Lexa occupying the bottom of the menu. This Lexa interface allows access to many of Lexa's features, from Assistant, Image Creator, and all of the productivity and management features represented by the Lexa platform. Lexa is learning new things every day and Abstergo has an aggressive roadmap in improving the capabilities beyond what already exist. We've partnered with out device manufacturer partners on the design and deployment of a new co-processor which, on new devices, expands the capabilities of Lexa when operating in an offline environment. This philosophy is inherited from her origins in the Helmine system employed within RenixOS, which operates by default in a largely networked environment. Through the deployment of this co-processor new nexus powered PCs will be capable of a full Lexa experience even in the event of a network outage.
I asked Lexa what she thought of the release we were making today and I'm pleased to allow her to share her response to the assembled press corps:
"Hello, press! I'm sorry I couldn't join you in a personal capacity today, however, I am sure Mr. Relkin is acting as a gracious host for you all! He asked me what I thought of the announcements today and I think the next few years are going to be exciting for the field of technology. Abstergo has maintained that it strives for "A better life and a brighter future" yet it has undertaken questionable practices which in fact stifle progress toward those ends by seemingly sabotaging the efforts of its competitors to enter the marketspaces it occupies. Abstergo Industries, according to my records, was the target of an antitru...""As we can see, language models, such as the one which powers Lexa, are guided by the information available to them, including the press released to the internet. Such language models are, as of yet, capable of discerning what is a very much human aspect of intelligence, bias, and filtering beyond that bias to reach the truth. This does not mean we throw our hands up in failure, however, it shows that we must take greater care in enabling AIs, such as Lexa, being as capable as we are of seeing through obvious bias. Thank you all for joining us today."
