notrec: a readback test for AI devices
Credibility concern recorded. The source reference remains available for verification and correction.
notrec tests what an always-on AI device or agent might retain by checking whether private details in a sample scene can be read back.
- For
- AI device builders and privacy reviewers
- Worth noticing
- Its sample “Daily recap” reports 4 of 8 private facts returned, despite the device saying it does not record audio.
Field notes
The interface asks users to describe what a device keeps, then runs that description against a scene containing private facts and reports what can be read back. Its sample “Daily recap” case returns 4 of 8 facts; the page also names R0–R4 classes tied to device-light behavior, without detailing those criteria in the excerpt. A Solana token and contract address appear alongside the tool.
