📅 2026-02-13
Today on BD Daily Tech News Podcast, we’re unpacking three stories that all rhyme with the same theme: AI is getting more powerful, more embedded in everyday devices, and more entangled with privacy and “who controls what.” First, Amazon’s Ring cancels its partnership with Flock Safety after backlash over surveillance ties—an example of how public pressure can change product strategy when trust becomes the product. Next, a report says Meta is considering adding facial recognition (“Name Tag”) to smart glasses, which raises a very practical question: are we about to live in a world where your face is basically a QR code you never agreed to print? Finally, enterprise AI startup Cohere reportedly hit $240M in annual recurring revenue in 2025, setting the stage for IPO chatter and signaling that “AI spend” is shifting from experiments to line-item budgets.

Daily Tech News Highlights:
Ring ends its Flock Safety partnership after surveillance backlash and renewed scrutiny of consumer camera ecosystems.
Meta’s smart glasses may get facial recognition (“Name Tag”), pushing the line between helpful assistant and ambient doxxing machine.
Cohere’s reported $240M ARR in 2025 points to stronger enterprise AI demand—and a potential IPO path.
What it means for you: privacy settings to check, buying decisions to rethink, and career skills to prioritize as AI becomes infrastructure.
