Get used to the future. Just like cell phones and then smartphones have become ubiquitous, smart glasses will be a thing. A common thing.
People have trouble imagining them being useful, but there are many use cases. I think the biggest ones are helping with content creation for influencers and trainers/educators, and training AI on specific tasks.
While it is possible to share a screen with AI to train it, smart glasses will enable training on the screen and in the real world. Want to show your AI-powered, household robot appliance how to prepare a certain mean, how you order ingredients on your deliverable shopping list, and how to put those items away, so that your robot can take over these tasks, smart glasses will be handy.
What’s more, AI will be able to be a “free” personal life coach and trainer that will help you achieve personal goals and be far more productive.
Maybe these things will be possible without looking like a dork (even if some of us are dorks).
The biggest unanswered question is whether they will make you more connected to people. In some ways smartphones have, and in others, they have reduced those connections.
Today, Meta has the most popular smart glasses. They have a similar form factor as this one. It’s a popular style and is less intrusive than other previous attempts in this category. Meta’s current generation lacks a display, but it’s coming. The one featured here has no camera but does have a display. Both kinds have uses. They will be much more powerful and useful when they integrate both of these features.
