"Consent Mode is off by default" is like the unofficial motto of the tech industry. https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/15/24130832/limitless-ai-pendant-wearable-meetings

Screenshot of Verge article about the Limitless Pendant. "The Limitless Pendant, which is shipping in August, is what might change things. The $99 device is meant to be with you all the time — Siroker says its battery lasts 100 hours — and uses beam-forming tech to more clearly record the person speaking to you and not the rest of the coffee shop or auditorium. An LED lights up whenever it’s recording, and the Limitless Pendant also has a “Consent Mode” that detects new voices and doesn’t record them until the software hears them agree to being recorded. (It’s worth noting this mode is off by default.) Everything you record gets uploaded to Limitless, mingled with your other data, and made available through the apps."

Limitless AI: a new wearable gadget, and app, for remembering your meetings

Limitless has apps for Mac, Windows, and the web and aims to be a way to prep for and remember the stuff you talk about at work. Plus ChatGPT and much more.

With all of that VC funding, I'm sure they could afford lawyers to defend them. :P
