What fool would buy this? Can you imagine wearing this around your office, recording discussions, etc? And what about the people you interact with being recorded without their knowledge or consent? All to "help AI learn"? Really???

Just hell no.

Yikes! No interest in this whatsoever! The only time I use Siri on my iphone is when I am getting directions in my car.

All elected officials should be forced to wear one of these. Everything they ever say should become part of the public record. No privacy for our Masters.

That was my first thought. What about everyone around you? This is the audio version of Google glasses that were lampooned. People who wore them were referred to ass “glassholes.” 😉

YOU SAID IT. I’m glad they showed a picture of it- I’ll be sure to be on the lookout for anyone wearing one.

It’s a portable Alexa, for crying out loud- surveillance technology taken to another level….

“What fool would buy this?”

Have you seen the fools wandering aimlessly around with a phone stuck in their face? Those fools.

Guess it was never ‘big brother’ but an AI version of ‘Big Sister Alexa’...

Every sensible company and government employer ought to immediately ban these from the workplace as violations of law and policy protecting FTI, PII, PHI, company IP and plain privacy of others’ speech.

They won’t… until the first big incident.

Selfies for the idiots weren’t enough. Now they have to record all the bright crap they say throughout the day. Geez. It’s an “I LOVE ME!” world.

They’re going to literally fly off the shelves. Never underestimate the stupidity of the buying public, especially the young and “hip”.

Never, never, never, never ever for any monitoring device I know about. I even have tape over the camera on my monitors.
