In a work environment, with the MindClip placed clearly on someone’s neck, there is an argument that this is perfectly appropriate. It’s not that different from recording a video call.
But there’s nothing stopping you from using it for all your private conversations as well, which is where we get into a little murkier waters. Most people seem to immediately take advantage of its potential to check exactly who said what, to resolve arguments (the immediate response from the two journalists I was shown at the CES booth was, “Wow, my wife is going to hate this”). Plus, it can be hidden very easily.
However, if you can get over the creepiness and want something to help your wandering brain during business meetings, this still seems like an interesting innovation.
