AI recording wearables are quietly listening to everyone in Silicon Valley
sfstandard.comWhy is everyone recording everyone else in San Francisco? Is it legal? And do you consent?
TLDR: Techbros in SF are wearing AI pins that record everything everyone says around them.
“My general sense is that we should assume we are being recorded at all times,” said Clara Brenner, a partner at venture capital firm Urban Innovation Fund. “Of course, this is a horrible way to live your life.”
Damn right it is. Every day one step closer to dystopia. Fuck this shit.

Humans have been extending and improving on our biological capabilities using technology since before recorded history. Improving our memory seems like it will eventually happen also.
I do completely understand why this would be a nightmare in practice. Governments would claim that they had the right to search it and it could still be stolen or accessed by unauthorized bad people.
I don’t want to to be a part of people’s recording in real life encounters against my consent. That black mirror episode of everything you see being recorded was a nightmare.
