I hope this is just prohibited in the EU :-) If I see someone recording me(whether they did or not), I'll use my legal insurance to sue them into oblivion.

There's an imaginary boundary of when technology starts to hurt humanity, and this clearly crosses it in so many ways.

I can't believe the people behind this haven't thought about the negative sides, even if they deliver what they said in terms of privacy, it's so wrong in so many levels. Did they use ChatGPT to generate that silly idea?

This is when you know AI hype has hit cryptocurrency level, where stupid ideas start popping all the time and supposedly raising money.

It's time to grab popcorn and see VCs fund those stupid ideas and see them wasting their money.

That would make no sense.

This device is very similar to what I've pursued for a short time.

Almost every country (with a notable exception of several US states) allow to record conversations for personal use. You just cannot distribute them to third-parties without consent.

If you record me without my consent, and I know it, good luck!
