"Most of the population" is going to be "the wearers".
> Coworkers don’t and wouldn’t tolerate coworkers taking videos or pictures of them.
Here is a fun experience you can try: just hit "record" on every single Teams or Meet meeting you're ever on (or just set recording as the default setting in the app).
See how many coworkers comment on it, let alone protest.
I can tell you from experience (of having been in thousands of hours of recorded meetings in the last 3 years) that the answer is zero.

In my opinion, you do not have an accurate view of how much the average person cares about this. London is the most surveilled city on the planet with widespread CCTV/facial recognition, as is Washington D.C. and China. But literally no one bothers with anti-surveillance measures.
> I’m not working there and I have to think many would agree. Coworkers don’t and wouldn’t tolerate coworkers taking videos or pictures of them.
This is a very antiquated view IMO. You are already being filmed and monitored at work. I see no issue with a local LLM interpreting my environment, or even a privacy-aware secure LLM deployment like Apple's Private Cloud Compute: https://security.apple.com/blog/private-cloud-compute/
Not really surprised that you don't see it as a problem

Funniest thing I've heard all month.

My brother in Christ, you sincerely underestimate how much "most of the population" gives a shit. Most people are being tracked by Google Maps or FindMy, are triangulated with cell towers that know their exact coordinates, and willingly use social media that profiles them individually. The population doesn't even try in the slightest to resist any of it.
