I agree. Some threshold in the past few years has been passed. I wear mine every day (and I don't wear glasses normally). Music, photos, videos all super useful. AI is lacking but will get better. Feels cool and not-embarassing in public

I think that they've done it, this is Meta's iPod

I would love to try these types of devices but there is no way I'd ever give money to Meta or put my personal information into their systems or encourage my friends and family to do so either.

Hopefully Meta puts in a bunch of R&D to see what works in this space and then someone else (Apple?) just copies it.

Me too, I’d never trust that company with anything personal. It is bad enough that they can track health meta via in quest.

Meta running the show is a non-starter.

Do you encounter people that would rather you not point a Meta camera at them as a condition of interacting with you? Or is it more task-specific?
