OpenAI Plan To Ship 100 Million AI Devices That Documents Your Entire Life
Anomalien ^ | May. 24, 2025 | Jake Carter

Posted on 05/24/2025 8:39:29 AM PDT by Openurmind

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is partnering with Jony Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone, to create wearable AI devices that can be “fully aware” of a user’s surroundings and life.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Altman has directed his team to produce 100 million of these secretive “AI companion” gadgets.

The unnamed device, still in development, will be compact—small enough for a pocket or desk—and designed to reduce screen time. Unlike an Apple Watch, it won’t have phone features.

The collaboration between Altman and Ive sounds like a Silicon Valley dream, but skepticism remains. After the Humane AI pin flopped—users returned the $700 wearable due to its bulk and poor performance—many wonder if people will embrace another always-watching AI device.

It’s unclear if the device will record audio or video, or where such data would be stored. OpenAI hasn’t clarified these details. Still, the concept feels eerily similar to Black Mirror’s “The Entire History of You,” where implants record every moment of a person’s life.

Betting China will order 1 and a half billion


Since the precipitous population drop [ for as yet unexplained reasons ], they will only need 750-800 million.

"...armed resistance"
Pretty sure anyone saying/typing 'armed resistance' will be on file somewhere.

Oops, now they got me, too.

You laugh, insult our intelligence, and try to make it a Tinfoil conspiracy. But this is an absolute reality. Mobile phones are already Geofence tracking us and recording everything we do. And this device will just create redundancy and compliment that very real EXISTING network.

Electric Eye - Judas Priest

Up here in space
I’m looking down on you
My laser’s trace
Everything you do

You think you’ve private lives, think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape, I’m watching all the time

I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean

I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye

Always in focus
You can’t feel my stare
I zoom into you
But you don’t know I’m there

I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove

I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean

I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye
Electric eye
In the sky
Feel my stare
Always there

There’s nothing you can do about it
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows
I’m made of metal

My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye
I’m elected electric spy
I’m elected
Protective
Detective
Electric eye

Who would want AI to chronicle your life?

Consider what people put on their Facebook pages. "Bought a new pair of shoes. Had lunch at Taco Bell, the burrito was delicious. Little Muffy has the runs so I took her to the vet." Narcissism sells.

You can bet this first order is going to China. But when that market dwindles they will be chasing new markets. And WE will be that new market.

I keep telling folks, these Tech Corporations are NOT loyal to any Nation. They will sell their wares to ANY Nation who wants them. Our #1 enemy are the Tech Corporations themselves not other Nations.

What are you talking about?

I called for people to get ready by acquiring an EM frequency weapon to break chemical bonds in enemy ssRNA. And you think it’s a joke? It’s basic chemistry, dude.

I can up the score. How about a device that documents your life, while simultaneously broadcasting it on line, and storing it on online. To be retrieved any time by interested parties.

The same can be done with your automobile. Every second you drive it gets “documented” and stored for future de-generations.

That AI crap is beyond scary, when one merely thinks of its horrible potential for evil, which is what it’ll be used for.

“I can up the score. How about a device that documents your life, while simultaneously broadcasting it on line, and storing it on online. To be retrieved any time by interested parties.”

Touched on that earlier. Streamed in real time up to cloud storage. :)

“The same can be done with your automobile. Every second you drive it gets “documented” and stored for... (Insurance Companies).

I can see all this absolutely being available for sale to the highest bidders.

I absolutely agree. We obviously did not learn one thing from the reality that came with the Patriot Act. This is even bigger and more dangerous, here we go again allowing ourselves to be enslaved even more...

Reminds me of the movie The Final Cut

I was about to post the same. Weird role for Robin Williams.

In the end, who makes the final cut? Humans are already quite adept at rewriting history. AI will be even better.

Then the AI filter will contact the State to have your driving privileges pulled because it determined you are not mentally capable enough to drive anymore.

Just because you forgot why you went into the kitchen...

>> It will record every person that is interacted with as well. Nothing will be private anymore.

Isn’t that what Facefook is for??!? 🤣🤣🤣

A quick check with Grok returned this information:
Under federal law, specifically the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) and 18 U.S.C. § 2511(2)(d), recording a phone call or conversation is legal if at least one party to the conversation consents to the recording, provided the recording is not made for the purpose of committing a criminal or tortious act. This means that if you are a participant in the conversation, you can record it without informing the other party, unless state law imposes stricter requirements. Federal law also prohibits third parties (those not part of the conversation) from recording without consent, except in specific circumstances like law enforcement with a warrant. Violating federal law can result in up to five years imprisonment and civil damages under 18 U.S.C. § 2520. (underlining added)

When a conversation crosses state lines (e.g., a phone call between two states), the stricter state law typically applies to avoid liability, especially if one state requires all-party consent.
