Thanks to Siri Recaps, your Apple Watch is always listening as you go about your day — but Apple may be risking a Meta Glasses-style backlash

I won’t say it’s not* a privacy nightmare but doesn’t Apple devices process this whole thing on-device? I don’t find it fair to compare this with Meta anything (and only that).

Plus is doesn’t store the audio nor an infinite log. It just continuously stores the last 15 seconds to my understanding. Meaning, what was said and transcribed 30 seconds ago is no longer accessible.

I don’t give a fuck. Your stupid dweeb watch is just another antisocial surveillance device.

What the fuck is that response? I don’t own an Apple Watch or anything. I’m just trying to put forth actual facts for the discussion.
Replying to @Snickeboa@lemmy.world
It’s pretty much the expected response when talking about Apple on here. No one cares for actual discussion and nuance.

The Live Audio is only 15 seconds before it is overwritten. The Transcribe is 7 days before it is overwritten.

Ok, but prior to this, the listening thing was at least a separate device. Now it can be a watch or sun glasses or your tv…

You can’t trust any corporation to keep your data safe and local. They lie about not sending it elsewhere, and even when they don’t, all it takes is one security breech, which every company has all the damn time.

Yes and no company has ever broken its promise or gotten hacked. Nothing stays safe forever. As soon as some AI company makes a future deal for that data your privacy does not matter. Apples been caught before violating privacy laws.
