Limitless Pendant LED Recording Consent Mode Privacy Features
By
–
This bit is interesting: > 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.)

Google Glass Backlash: Surveillance Concerns and Tech Industry Reactions
By

Google Glass wearers were being attacked in San Francisco ten years ago – though that could partly have been a reaction against the tech industry generally, hard to know if it was directly due to surveillance concerns

Hacking AI Pin to Run Gemma 2B Locally Without Internet

Who is going to be the first to find a way to hack the ai pin and run like Gemma 2B locally on it and see how it works instead of needing an internet connection (or only periodically phoning a cv/tts model)?

Quantization Dramatically Compresses LLMs for Consumer Hardware
By
–
LLMs can take gigabytes of memory to store, which limits what can be run on consumer hardware. But quantization can dramatically compress models, making a wider selection of models available to developers. You can often reduce model size by 4x or more while maintaining reasonable… pic.twitter.com/ASQ28fzgkB

Hardware Success Requires Excellent Software Quality

The issue here is that we all know hardware is tough, but weirdly, that seems to be the best part of the pin. In this day and age, you have no excuse for bad software. Being torn down because of software is just bad, and totally preventable.
