Ok, so this concept is cool, but has a few problems…

1. Privacy, this is far too complex to run on the headphones themselves, so the system will need to connect to a server to do the heavy lifting, what happens to the data once it used? For legal purposes I suspect it will need to be saved, meaning that any thing recorded could be analyzed or monitored.
2. Trust, AI models have rules in place to make them act in specific ways, the owner of the AI system used could tweak it to change what spoken or how it is said, this could push political agendas in everyday conversations.
3. Reduced lingual skills, an AI like this would reduce the incentive to learn another language, reducing people’s international direct communications, increasing dependancy on the AI service, further reducing our lingual skills.

This is scary…

With their permission?

I need this for the nail salon. When is it hitting stores and for how much? (I didn’t see any mention of cost/availability in the article.)
