TLDR: Techbros in SF are wearing AI pins that record everything everyone says around them.
“My general sense is that we should assume we are being recorded at all times,” said Clara Brenner, a partner at venture capital firm Urban Innovation Fund. “Of course, this is a horrible way to live your life.”
Damn right it is. Every day one step closer to dystopia. Fuck this shit.
Sarbanes Oxley (SOX) Tought these fuckers nothing

Corporations and c-staff lie cheat and steal, They come up with a legal ideas and tell people to act on them. The last thing they need is something storing information about what they’re actually saying and is set around them. These spy pins and the VR boardroom note takers are just generating documentation to get these assholes hold off to prison, when we start caring about that start again
You don’t keep those emails, you don’t keep those records, you don’t keep audio or video past a predetermined period of time someone discovery comes for you , You’re not caught shredding evidence.
Sweet, AI will think everyone on earth is from California
Glad these things would be technically illegal in my state due to two-party-consent laws for recording.
This is still a bit of a nightmare. This being illegal will prevent people from showing the recordings publicly, but if they record for private use, no one would prevent them, or even know…
The article addresses that since California is two-party as well. The laws won’t stop it.

Two party consent laws in California come down to a “reasonable expectation of privacy” and that has been worked out in the legal system over time to be pretty much any place with an open door or window, even a conference room inside a private business is fair game if the door is open to the hallway.
I mean this has already been happening for years with stuff like Google home and Alexa.
