Actually I find the idea of recording everything (or maybe not everything, but seamlessly recording whenever I want) quite attractive. I have a bad memory and would love to be able to rewatch good moments of my life.
The part about all that data being in control of powerful corporations, though... that's what makes me thing that I'd prefer it to fail as well.
I wish we could have this sort of tech outside of the framework of modern capitalism.
For personal use I kind of agree with you but I would be very concerned about the stalking potentials. We're already seeing huge issues of women being targeted by guys making and distributing "creepshots" and now deepfake based harassment. Constant recording is both a tool to increase access to women in public places as well as to separate the user's feelings from the world they're inhabiting.
Edit: I note that someone else is in the thread already saying "It's going to be awesome for amateur porn" without any caveats about the rampant consent issues of amateur pornography, revenge porn or age verification.
I wonder if using less of memory-recall capabilities of the brain will lead to loss of other important capabilities. So, I worry if using too much tech crutches is going to be detrimental.
Amateur pornography already has huge issues with consent and age verification, and is also more and more being weaponised against women as revenge pornography.
