Yeah, that's a great idea, I will add this to the feature list ;) But I think for the V1, I'll stick to positive reinforcement. Not 100% sure "aversive conditioning" builds the long-term trust we're aiming for. ;) C

You're right, the trust is at zero. My entire mission agrees with your core premise: "If the data is on a server, someone will find a way to abuse it." That's why my entire architecture is being designed differently, bas

That’s why the plan is to invert the usual logic: instead of capturing everything and trying to filter later, the system would reject everything by default and only respond to what the user explicitly enables --> similar to how wake word

Thank you, that's a very valuable and encouraging contribution :) I've also considered the idea of collecting data now that might be useful later. However, at least within the EU, data storage must be purpose-specific. That’s why

I completely understand your concern, and I agree, the kind of scenario you describe would be morally unacceptable. I wouldn’t want to build or be responsible for anything that could enable it. That said, I often think about how this tensio

A very interesting insight. I hadn't expected that, but of course it opens up new possibilities. Sometimes it would be really interesting to crawl back through older thoughts :)

Really interesting link to "Jiminy", I hadn’t heard of that before. Also didn’t know Musk was planning something similar, but I think it’s more of a phone than a wearable?

Just to clarify, the “reminder” example was just one possible use case. The idea isn’t to capture everything or pretend to read thoughts, but to offer flexible support based on context you control. Curious though: if there were a way for an

Is there anything you’re thinking about where this might be useful for you?

Good to know, I will double check commits if I see your name haha ;)

Totally fair perspective, and I respect how thoughtfully you approach it. It’s helpful to hear where others draw boundaries, even if the whole landscape feels hard to escape. Thx

I wouldn’t trust a “god made by man” either ;) That’s why I’m building something small, local, and transparent—more like a tool than a deity. Curious what kind of system (if any) you would trust?

by aurintex 11mo ago
So even if it were open source, that wouldn’t be a reason for you to trust it? Just curious: what would have to change for you to even consider it? Is it more about the concept itself, or the way it's implemented?

I agree that real empathy comes from lived experience. But I wonder if there’s room for something softer: systems that don’t pretend to be human, but still support us in deeply personal ways. I’m building something that tries to stay on the

The core idea is that the AI runs locally on the device, and all data is stored on the device. Therefore, no data will be shared or sold to other companies. Regarding anonymization --> do you mean, what if I pointed the camera at someone

by aurintex 11mo ago
That's a good point. Did you use it? If so, what did you use it for? Could you imagine that something like rewind but with camera could be useful?

That makes me wonder --> how do you currently deal with your smartphone, which often has wakeword detection enabled (like “Hey Google”)? Or when you're visiting friends who have an Alexa device at home. Would that already be a probl

Then, we are in Matrix ;) But I think this is already one step ahead of my idea ;) But I think I know, what you mean - the human aspect should not be lost in the process. Do you see a chance for the future, what can unite the two aspects,

Would it make a difference if the data were only stored locally on your device?

I imagine it helping me remember things or stick to my habits. For example, if I want to lose weight and have a weak moment, it could remind me—like when I order a burger. It could also help me use my time better. If it knows what I’ve been

Ask HN: Would you trust an AI that sees and hears everything you do?

I was often frustrated because I mostly heard “what can't be done” instead of “how it could be solved.”

Hey HN, Riccardo (founder) here. The link goes to our GitHub Manifesto. It explains the 'Why' behind aurintex: I believe the future of 'always-on' AI companions must be built on a foundation of absolute trust. The defa

I can only agree. I'm not an python expert, but I always struggled when installing a new package and got the warning, that it could break the system packages, or when cloning an existing repo on a new installed system. Always wondered

This is an important application of 'augmenting perception' tech. I'm interested in the technical architecture, specifically regarding the data processing and privacy trade-offs. Is the analysis done locally on the device&#x2
