- Meta is developing prototype "super sensing" always-aware smart glasses that could continuously record audio and snap photos "every few seconds," per the Financial Times.
- The glasses would let wearers query Meta AI about captured content, positioning Meta as potentially the next company to ship an always-on AI wearable.
Why it matters: An always-recording wearable from a company of Meta's scale would normalize continuous audio and photo capture on the face, with the attendant privacy and consent questions going mainstream alongside the product.
