A couple days ago I quietly made a rule for myself that I would not blog about AI at all this week. Halfway breaking it with a link to this AI-adjacent report from Mark Gurman about new Apple devices:

The pendant would essentially serve as an always-on camera for the smartphone that also includes a microphone for Siri input. Some Apple employees call it the “eyes and ears” of the phone.

Always listening is already a step too far for most people. Always filming? Apple’s strength is privacy, but on-device models don’t seem cut out for this right now. Will be fascinating to watch.
