More and more AI wearables are being created but I've noticed lots of people being aggressively against any wearables.

Would you personally use smth like this? Or this is too privacy-invasive? Do you think peoples' behavior will eventually shift in 1-10 years so that eventually everyone will adopt and wear some kind of necklace with them?

Also, since I'm the creator of that tweet, I kindly ask everyone, instead of upvoting this post, to express their own opinion instead.

Since we launched, we mostly received only positive feedback so I'd like to see the negative side - should we actually continue working on this or just shut it down and return money back?

There’s the rub.

“If we don’t, the Chinese/Russians/fill-in-the-blank will pull ahead of us.”

Wearables, Artificial Intelligence, the list is long.

Resistance is futile. We will adapt.

Not in a million years. I'd also go out of my way to avoid people using something like this.

It's far too privacy-invasive, and puts me in a position of having to trust a tech company.

Oh damn I didn't even know about this - so cool

Basically the article verifies that you can get a shit ton of value if done right and people get used to being recorded

I'm biased here, but perfect memory and decentralized individual-level ambient data collection is going to be the norm in 5 years. In the interim, things like this that only save editable/deletable text will make people comfortable with it.

If someone can edit their recorded memories whenever they want with 0 effort, they can't do anything malicious with what I tell them anyway, so what's the concern?

That’s how it starts.

I remember when we could connect with people we hadn’t seen in decades on the newfangled thing called Facebook…how cool it was…

That was 2004, a much simpler time…

Fast forward fourteen years…what was Cambridge Analytica?

Please refresh my memory. Fakebook is soooo cool…

Facebook, Twitter, the Internet of Things, Crypto in general, NFT's in particular... the marketing always seems to be the same. "Hey we're just some cool dudes with this nifty tech we made," what could go wrong? Initial concerns are dismissed as the wailing of Luddites, "subversive elements" or the jealous. After all if you were in on the fun/money/whatever you would love it as much as we do!

Then either the business model fails, someone high up is outed as a monster, or as with FB the entire business model is understood to be toxic. But then the next thing emerges and we're back to step 1, just "some cool guys with nifty tech, don't be negative, bro!"
