I compared Bee’s version of my day with my diary entry. I wrote about trying Paddington Bear-themed marmalade sandwiches in our office kitchen. (Not a fan. I did, however, note that the strawberry-flavored shortbread cookie was excellent.) I wrote several paragraphs about a sensitive text conversation I had with a friend. Bee never picked up these moments because memorable things aren’t always spoken aloud. It made me wonder: in a hypothetical future where everyone has a Bee, do unspoken memories simply not exist?
I liked reading this part because I had not considered that consumers of these products would have an expectation of their device to document their thoughts.
