I Stopped Paying for AI Meeting Recorders. Here’s the Free, Private Tool I Use Instead.

Cloud-based AI meeting recorders are a business model, not a technical necessity. Lumi is a free, open-source CLI tool that runs entirely on your Mac, using built-in macOS features. No cloud, no account, no subscription. Your recordings never leave your machine. It’s the ultimate privacy protector disguised as a surveillance tool.

The movement pushing for an AI slowdown isn’t driven by anti-technology Luddites, but by geopolitical security experts applying the ‘nuclear taboo’ framework.
