Interesting idea. What do we do about our friends using devices - phones or smart glasses or headphones - that are constantly listening and sending our conversations to some AI? Do we need privacy contracts with friends?

My circle of friends have too much respect for each other to inflict that sort of thing on each other. But if one did, I'd probably do the same thing I do when acquaintances or strangers use invasive devices: avoid being near them as much as possible, and keep any interactions as superficial as I can.
