Why do people do this shit to themselves?
I swear if the Borg came down some people would be lining up to join the club.

I compared Bee’s version of my day with my diary entry. I wrote about trying Paddington Bear-themed marmalade sandwiches in our office kitchen. (Not a fan. I did, however, note that the strawberry-flavored shortbread cookie was excellent.) I wrote several paragraphs about a sensitive text conversation I had with a friend. Bee never picked up these moments because memorable things aren’t always spoken aloud. It made me wonder: in a hypothetical future where everyone has a Bee, do unspoken memories simply not exist?
I liked reading this part because I had not considered that consumers of these products would have an expectation of their device to document their thoughts.

So it listens to you and you can “permit it” to read emails and all that shit? I didn’t even know this kind of thing existed let alone that anyone would CHOOSE to allow this. Crazy.
I find it stupid yet somehow helpful.
It records everything you say, it also takes your time after to read the scripts, which could can be helpful at some point.
It's a no from me.

I outsourced my memory to an AI pin
This part is enough to ensure things are gonna get dystopian real quick. Spoiler: they do, and the thing also fails a lot.
I like how they put in italics “it listens to all your conversations” and yet it’s still third in the list. Reminds me of how most mass media approach mass surveillance!
ewwww, a paywall.
