What I Found
After a month using the Bee wearable AI, the big question is not whether it is useful.
I have been using the Bee wearable AI for about a month, and the surprising part is not that it works. The surprising part is how quickly something that listens, transcribes, pulls tasks, and journals the day starts to feel normal.
The line between usefulness and privacy depends on what the device is collecting, where it is being used, and whether the people around it have any real choice in the matter. A wearable AI that helps summarize your own day can be useful. A device that is always listening or watching in public, at dinner, in the office, or on the subway starts to affect more than just the person wearing it.
