Show HN: Omi – Open-source AI wearable for capturing conversations

#1

Post by kodjima33 »

Hi, HN! I built a proactive open-source AI necklace that transforms your conversations into summaries, proactive feedback, and insights

I built this because I want to use it myself: many companies are advertising such technology but no one is shipping

The app can work with or without wearables so you can try the experience without buying anything

--- Update: wasn't expecting this post to get attention, so please let me know if I need any special tags like Show HN

Don’t wear one of these near me. I don’t want you recording our everyday conversations as a matter of habit. Ask permission first.

Do you tell the same to millions of people who wear headphones and Meta Raybans?

Millions of people don’t wear Meta Raybans yet, and headphones aren’t generally recording me without my permission.

In CA, recording me in a setting where I have the expectation of privacy is illegal, unless you have asked my permission first.

So yes, the law tells that to “millions of people,” if that many people decide to start recording conversations.

That has nothing to do with using an AI assistant that only listens to your voice and doesn’t store the recordings.
