I've tried Horizon Worlds on the Meta Quest, and the implementation of this feature is fucking awful. A lot of notification spam cluttering the screen that you can't dismiss.

The level of safety varies from instance to instance. If the AI detects someone being disruptive, it asks if you want to mute them, even if they're far away from you. You're notified when your voice radius is extended when AI deems you to not be a threat. You can garble people's voices like in that episode of Black Mirror.

Basically, you're constantly reminded that you're being recorded.

Every software platform is essentially a digital panopticon and as AI gets deployed more widely in the real world this will also be increasingly true for non-software interactions. My guess is everyone is eventually going to carry an AI "assistant" that records all signals and gives guidance to its owner just like most people in the developed world today carry a cell phone and a credit card.
