The on-board Meta AI agent can now set a reminder to buy whatever the camera is pointed at, among other enhancements.
The Ray-Ban Meta glasses are the first real artificial intelligence wearable success story. In fact, they are actually quite good. They’ve got that chic Ray-Ban styling, meaning they don’t look as goofy as some of the bulkier, heavier attempts at mixed reality face computers. The on-board AI agent can answer questions, and even identify what you’re looking at using the embedded cameras.
The smart spectacles got an infusion of AI tech earlier this year, and now Meta is adding more capabilities to the pile, though the enhancements here are pretty minimal. You can already ask Meta AI a question and hear its responses directly from the speakers embedded in the frames’ temple pieces. Now there are a few new things you can ask or command it to do. Probably the most impressive is the ability to set reminders.
