Glass by Pickle: Digital Mind Extension 🧠

This project is a fork of CheatingDaddy with modifications and enhancements. Thanks to Soham and all the open-source contributors who made this possible!

🤖 Fast, light & open-source—Glass lives on your desktop, sees what you see, listens in real time, understands your context, and turns every moment into structured knowledge.

💬 Proactive in meetings—it surfaces action items, summaries, and answers the instant you need them.

🫥️ Truly invisible—never shows up in screen recordings, screenshots, or your dock; no always-on capture or hidden sharing.
