• The Cloud Intern, by David Greenwood
• WSJ article (gift link, May 21, 2025): Sam Altman and Jony Ive are partnering to create a AI-powered surveillance device that will listen to, record, and analyze anything said by anyone standing within earshot. As AI expert Gary Marcus puts it in Black Mirror was a warmup act (May 23, 2025):
A camera and microphone. You would be monitored all the time. Everything you say, everything you do, and not just recorded, but analyzed, interpreted and turned into data, which of course OpenAI train their models on. (Didn’t I tell you OpenAI was gonna shift into surveillance?)Dictators everywhere will love it.
