    Yup, I’m sure THESE smart glasses will be the one that everyone suddenly loves. Yeah nah. But it is pretty funny to watch people learn why Google Glass failed again and again.

      I would want smart glasses for a very, very limited sunset of things. Watching a movie on a train. Real world walking and bicycling navigation. Receiving messages in a meeting so I don’t have to check my phone. None of the glasses have done any of these well.

      So they want us to buy glasses that don’t have any of these things well but also have an ai assistant because reasons. Pass.

        Seriously. I want a personal HUD for navigation and reminders that also corrects my vision (like normal glasses), not to become a walking surveillance device / info mine.

          but where’s the profit if you aren’t constantly recording data for them 24/7? What, you expect them to just make a product that functions well at what it was advertised to do?

    Show your support for surveillance capitalism and get yourself a face-mounted camera and microphone.
