I thought so, otherwise you would not be on SN. ;)

Sounds good, but certainly outside the reach of normies. I think separate unconnected devices are a much simpler way to ensure privacy, otherwise... "Next" "Next "Sure I want Apple Cloud" is the path most will take, which is sad, because this really leads to The Matrix - humans end up essentially providing data to train AIs for the exchange of some convenience.

Disagree with SD cards being an issue though. That's like saying a physical photo album in my closet is "insecure". Except it is actually the best way to opt out - even if unencrypted - because it exists purely in an offline form.

My ungoogled phone doesn't spy on me. My photos/recordings are safely encrypted on my phone, with metadata removed by default (unlike your camera/recorder which requires external unprotected SD cards). As for AI, i run them localy on my computer with free and open-source LLM. I'm not a normie. I know what i'm doing.

Have fun being constantly spied on and mined for behavior data to train AIs.

Have fun being in the matrix, basically.

A smartphone is the last thing I need. I prefer separate devices that do one job and do it well and are not connected to the internet nor to other sensors that are not absolutely necessary for them to function.

I prefer a camera to take pictures, a recorder to record sounds, a musical instrument to make music, CASH TO PAY FOR STUFF, etc etc. And yes, a phone also, to make calls.

Have fun carrying a smartphone. I know I wont be.

What’s your take on dedicated AI devices?

Have fun carrying more devices with you. A smartphone (and maybe a smartwatch) is all i really need.
