    I get you, and you're right, the important part of the recording would be stored (the context). however, I see it being like a summarizer and at least it won't be recorded and fed …

    Ask HN: Why hasn't anyone tried building an AI wearable wristband?

    Over the past few months, we've seen a couple of consumer hardware startups come out with their take on what an "AI wearable" will look like. For example, the Humane Pin, Rewind Pe…
