TL;DR: Meta is beta testing advanced AI features on Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses. Beta testers in the US can opt-in for early access to features like camera aided visual translation/summarization of text and asking any questions related to the image or topic within a certain period of time. Meta plans to make it available to everyone next year.

Wdym, you got one of them and you‘ve been enjoying it, but don’t like the potential privacy implications?

What have you been mostly using them for if I may ask? And how much do you use them in general?

For privacy reasons (and also because it’s winter :p) I no longer use them that much, but when I did use them they were mostly show-offs. I also had to be really careful not to get them wet because of how expensive they are. They also aren’t that comfortable

So even without the privacy concerns they are not worth it after all.
