And even if it weren't super weird and creepy, it's 15 seconds, right? So what, that waitress rolledup, read the menu for less than 10 seconds, and then zoomed away, giving you a couple of seconds to get to and run the replay?

I've definitely had situations where I zoned out for a few seconds during a meeting or seminar, and want to see what was just spoken. That seems like a much stronger use case where you wouldn't want to interrupt the whole room to ask what was just spoken.

  That doesn't seem to be a use case that I would use - now assuming someone is still speaking, you look at your watch (just bad form to me) you will very likely miss what is being talked about while reading what you previously missed. At least my one channel brain would.

  It's gonna make a loud ass chime when you do that, so I don't think that's the use case Apple was imagining.

  This happens to me too and I enable 'Live Captions' (not meeting transcriptions) so that I always have a scroll back in case I miss something. It's built into the meeting software I use and probably in most mainstream ones. I tried OS transcription but those don't split out who's talking (since it's a single audio stream) so much less useful. Anyways all that to say that at least in online meetings this problem is solved and addressing this problem in a stack that doesn't have meeting context is going to result in a worse experience.

Is it super weird and creepy if you I tell you I remember the last 15 seconds of what you said?

  If I wasn’t talking to you, but you were eavesdropping and taking notes of everything I was saying to another person, yes. That’s what the wrist computer is doing.

  If I wasn't talking to you and you were just listening to me in public, yes.
