Loomos AI Glasses, powered by GPT-4o, challenge Meta’s Ray-Bans with 4K photos, AI voice assistance, and long battery life, aiming to redefine AI wearables.

Meta Platforms’ (META) artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Ray-Ban smart glasses are proving to be a “game-changer” for the visually impaired,

The tech giant made smart specs for the general public. Visually impaired owners use them to help with everyday tasks, though some critics cite safety concerns.

Are chatbots yesterday's news? Kind of. OpenAI's launch of ChatGPT in late 2023 ignited a frenzy to implement generative AI that's still ongoing. However, the future of artificial intelligence (AI) won't be limited to merely having a conversation with a computer.

Just be aware: these glasses are strange. They emit an overwhelming vibe of weirdness. They make you feel like a hypocrite and, regardless of how effective the Ray-Ban Meta glasses are, we absolutely should be worried about tech giants and what they're doing to the planet we occupy.

So, that leaves Meta and maybe Samsung in the game, and only one of those companies actually has a product you can buy right now. It's obviously too early to say how Meta's plans to ship more AI wearables will go in 2025, but if there's one tech company with enough interest and funds to make it work, my money is on Meta.
