One intriguing use I encountered was a doctor who automatically transcribed the conversation during an appointment. This has HIPAA concerns, of course, and I think (hope, at least) that this was in the context of medical software that is designed to be HIPAA compliant. But it was an interesting way for a doctor to try and avoid missing something in conversation.
I agree with you that it's weird outside of professional settings.
- robocat 18d agoI try to record many specialist professionals (after asking first). Experts know what they are saying, and they often rapidly download dense technical information. I first noticed the problem after asking a friend for advice on handling a psych issue with a friend's child. Otherwise experts talk and I listen and I understand, but I can easily forget nuance and detail. I also learnt to record medical specialists talking to my mum, so I could replay the details to my dad. Why would dad trust my recall? And will he trust facts if I've repeated them as a non-specialist? And perhaps dad picks up different aspects due to his own experiences.
