At the same time, I think I would actually use this tool if it were available on a corporate machine.

I already assume my employer is recording everything I do. So, I have zero expectation of privacy.

I regularly have like 30 different tabs and text documents open that meant something to me a couple days ago, but I’ve since lost the context. Being able to ask my computer “why was this important?” or “how did I find this?” would be super useful.
