      I actually interviewed for a data science role with this company a couple years ago. They were definitely cagey about what the actual product was for the initial screenings and then when they finally opened up about the role of poop data scientist, it was actually pretty funny.

      It’s distressing just how freaking similar the sales pitch is too.

      What I’m loathed to even call the “real product”: It’s time to stop flushing away valuable data.

      The fake one: If I had information that could save your life or the life of your family members, would you flush that?

      Just… wow

    Based out of — where else — Austin, Throne is a bold new startup leveraging AI to revolutionize the way we interact with our toilet.

    Am I out if the loop on poop jokes and Austin?

      They just need to find their own Scout Condor and they’ll have everyone checking the nitrates in their stool.

    What if multiple people use the toilet? Does this device have some sort of poop-id?

      Hopefully with a strong passphrase too. I don’t want my step parents to see my poop history when they come over.

      Edit: actually, I don’t want to see theirs either D:

    Oh no. I’m not having an AI camera send someone pictures of my poop.

    I already get in enough trouble doing this with my own camera.

    I’m honestly surprised they use Bluetooth for profiles. I figured it would scan your asshole and use that as a biometric like your retina.
