I outsourced my memory to an AI pin and all I got was fanfiction

&gt; You strap it onto your wrist or clip it onto your shirt. It’ll then listen to all your conversations. (...) Depending on your comfort level, you can permit it to scan through your emails, contacts, location, reminders, photos, and calendar events.<p>This is such an insane violation of privacy for everyone who communicates with or even just near a person wearing this. I cannot believe this is legal and accepted.

When you get down to it, the vast majority of LLM stuff is actually fan fiction under the hood.<p>Even your interaction with an &quot;assistant&quot; is actually a document describing a conversation between two characters, where one has dialogue of what you entered and the other is acted-out.

Keeping AI out of your life feels more and more like Daniel refusing the kings food.<p>Edit: David was the guy in the Shrek song

Even with perfect recording things will go bad pretty fast. The Black Mirror episode was just too naive.<p>And wait till the very explicit AI that is meant to record everything near you ends in the very implicit one in your smartphone, computers and other gadgets which manufacturers may decide that an extra AI push may be better for the service it provides (using Hanlon&#x27;s Razor here)

Based on the headline I thought it was going to be about the Humane acquisition and shuttering.
