As an apparently excited user of this device, what do you think about the privacy concerns - both for the users themselves, but more importantly for people who interact with the users?
Just like with the prompt, I'm not thinking right now about what this is for everyone. I want something I can use myself, for myself. I will figure out what I think is appropriate in terms of privacy and social acceptability as I use it, and if I get it wrong that will be on me.
With respect to recording I'll also be thinking about what kinds of uses are responsible. The existence of a recording doesn't mean I have to use it or store it. I honestly can't recall a time when, if I had been continuously recording, I would have used that recording against anyone present. I would expect to be as respectful of the privacy of people I interact with as I am now... I don't recount what people say to me now without considering if that what they said might have been in confidence, without considering how what they said might be interpreted differently by a different audience or out of context, and without passing on my most good faith interpretation of what they said. That's a complicated rule system, but it does actually fire when I recount other people's statements.
But I'll also have to navigate how I use it, understand what things it captures that I don't want it to, and how that affects the people around me.
Also I just want to see what's possible, without pre-censoring what's appropriate before we know how any of this stuff works in practice. I'm willing to take the risk it's all a bad idea and I'll soon think of it as a dead end.
