They may not be recording everything all the time, but you have no idea when it is recording. At least I didn't on my moto x.
I went on to the google page that lets you see a lot of data they have stored for you. I had read about it in a blog post or something, so being curious I went to check it out. I believe it is the "control your content" page in your settings. I don't want to login to google right now so I might be wrong.
It has stuff like web searches (if you have that enabled). During the year I had an android, it captured several conversations, and I only found out because they were on that data page.
None of them would have had the words "OK Google" or whatever triggers it. One of the conversations was definitely private... it with my doctor during a consult. Nothing that was recorded was actually sensitive, but the fact it happened, and I had no idea, was disturbing.
