Given the speed through the internet of gpt-4o this should already be possible for openAI. I think the deal with Apple is basically them doing that with Siri on iDevices.
I agree and disagree. They should have an option. Transitions are a little expensive. The lenses they come with should be treated like the free sample filament that comes with a 3D printer. It's a starting point. I would want bifocal transitions, clear on top magnifying on bottom. Getting custom lenses should just be part of your budget.
I always think it's funny that things like this indicate you're recording. There are cameras all over the room that don't do this. Why must I warn people that I'm recording my surroundings?
This is why I am thinking of patenting an AI nose-ring. Not only is it the perfect place for a camera but it can also know what smells you are experiencing or detect when you are sick. And after asking for directions, you just follow your nose.
I think you need to research the product more. There is only one camera, on the left, the other glass circle is an LED light that flashes when you are recording a video or taking a photo so people know they are being recorded.
I got this in Febrary and it is one of the best purchases for me. I wear glasses so had my prescription glass fitted to it. So it is on me all the time. The Ai features with LLAMA 3 was introduced to it towards end of April. Before that it was only camera. It has been amazingly useful as an camera. I mostly used it to video record everywhere I go and create short FB reels. The quality of video and photos are amazing for that tiny camera. The best part is that no one notice you recording the action so others would not "ACT" and you do not need to get people uncomfortable pointing your phone or other cameras at them. Now the Ai features are still at infant stage, it is very useful for a Tourist. I recently did an international trip and it was able to identify many places and food items. Do translations of sign boards. It could read letters of different languages. You could do that with a phone too. But having it in your glasses are super convenient IMO. It can improve a lot. I believe Meta will add more features. But for me, it is something I can truely love to have with me all the time. I am big fan of these glasses.
The biggest issue I have with them: - hey, Meta, remember the place - it doesn’t work. I’ve spent some time debugging the network traffic trying to connect to gpt-4o - limited results - a lot of work. In total - if Meta would take an integration path with other apps and figure out how to make it work well for them - it would be class. Other then that - a toy for a few days.
I got the transition lenses and although I don’t need a prescription, I got bifocals since I’m almost 50. I wear them during surgery and document my procedures. Patients are always asking me to record part of their surgery and since these are hands free I can record a little clip to show them while my hands are in sterile gloves.
thank you for including videos you took. I agree taking the phone out is an annoying part, especially if there is a bunch of cool stuff around to to shoot, and you're carrying stuff.
There are lots of stories of Peter Hamilton that use such agents (I'm re-reading the Fallen Dragon right now). It's the perfect use case - we don't need AGI in the end, we just need agents. I don't want a sentient slave to serve me, I want just a piece of interactive software that would check my email or turn on music or show me the map while driving or check a pdf for me. People are so confused about this - we REALLY don't need ScaJo to voice the ai, we just need an AI that would listen to our own voice and do as told. And that's it. I like the sun glasses a lot but I don't wear sunglasses in general (or medical glasses for now) so that's a bit a no-go for me. But they look quite good.
I have two sets of cycling glasses; one for use during the day, and one for use during the night: 1. Black shades (regular sunglasses) 2. Yellow driving shades (reduces glare from oncoming headlights and improves contrast in low-light conditions) If it was possible to easily swap the lenses, I could probably wear them any time of day or night.
I'm in the same boat. I work as a head of Tech for a company and buy all the gadgets. Albeit slightly boring conceptually compared to a lot of the flashy underdeveloped gadgets coming ou, this seems to be the most finished product. I have the ones with transitional lenses and they work great for both inside and outside.
This was great, I am blind and I use these glasses every day, like Meta's look and ask feature is really helpful for me as I can have it describe things around me, or if I pick up a snack or drink, I can just hold it in front of my face and ask what it is. The only thing I noticed is about the camera, there is only one, it's on the left, the one on the right is a little light that tells people you are taking pictures or recording, although I've been told by people that it's not very noticable. 10:5410:5410:5410:54
As far as the data Apple and Google has access too: if you’re installing an app, they can request permission to anything on your phone. Genuinely curious about what other data you’re thinking would provide them such a big advantage
I have had these since they launched with prescription transition lenses. I wear glasses anyways, and these are now my daily drivers. I always have them on. If you’re willing to wear glasses full-time, there is no better form factor for AI integration into your life. I have the Rabbit R1 and it is no contest, the glasses are the best form factor.
I thought they only have one camera, not two. The other is a light sensor and LED. Also if you don’t want them as just sun glasses you simply buy transitions or clear, you can then use them all day. I have been using every day and use prescription transitions and they are great.
It's funny how everyone is rushing to get these new product concepts out on the market regardless of bugs, but I think it's also great that so many people are pioneering these ideas. Baby steps.
The transitional glasses are worth the extra money to me. Sunglasses hut had buy a pair get the second pair 50% off. I paid full price for the Metas and got 50% off polarized prism Oakley Holbrooks. Oakley’s are for driving and Metas are for casual wearing.
I have a pair that are transitions and no prescription, so then I can wear them in more situations. Definitely use them mostly for the photos/videos, but the AI has worked well. They also have a "look at" function so that it will take a photo and you can ask it questions about the content, or for translations. I miss that you can't start an audio recording session, or ask what song this is, but hopefully that will come in the future.
You can order replacement lenses from Apex lenses that are transition, or just blue light blocking. There is also an option to add your prescription to them.
As sunglasses they avoid the legal problems like Google Glasses had of having a hidden camera in an indoor and likely private space vs outdoors which tends to be a public space.
The sensor is actually sideways, so it's not likely they will offer landscape natively. But in my experience, the quality is good enough that unless you need super high def, you can just capture a sixteen by nine crop and it works fine
Great video! You're right about integration. I think they are starting to possibly integrate services. They are showing the ability to use service called "Calm" for wind-down time. I think in the future we will see more integrations. I would love to be able to take notes and also have a memory where you can ask about notes from the past or even simply set a timer. Once it does that it will really be more compelling. Still I'm amazed how fast the AI response is sometimes it's almost instant.
Hey Matt, the glasses come with transition lenses and even prescription lenses to cover the different use cases.

They can be used for live streaming as well as a POV Cam in whatsapp video calls. Your digital product reviews a generally more well worsed. Keep up the good work!
Two things: 1. There's only one camera, the other side has a light sensor and led light for privacy reasons 2. I understand your dilemma of only wearing sunglasses when you go outside on a sunny day: my solution was to order them with transition lense but also no prescription because I barely need any prescription myself 3. New update let's you record up to 3 minutes continuously :)
I've got them too and find I never ask them anything. I've tried identifying plants with them and it says it can't do that. Have you checked yours to see if they can really do that? I'm hoping they have updates planned that will make them more useful. I do wish I had gotten the transition lenses so I could use them more inside.
prescription lenses + transition lenses+simultaneous interpretation+mobile voice operation will make it more valuable in my opinion.“NOT REALLY REQUIED IN MY LIFE NOW”is correct.
You can get prescription free GenS transition lenses that change based on ammt of sunlight. Completely clear indoors. You don't need a script for them.
These do not use the GPS on your phone, but they get a rough location. Therefore weather yes, but not accurate enough for directions or to save your parking spot.
I brougth one of thoses, and since I use prescription lenses, I went to a store near my house and request them a pair that fits on the glasses. It is much better now, I threw away the original dark lenses
I've been saying it for a long time, but VR/AR is the form factor we will be using with ai. It's perfect. It combines real world data and digital data in an almost seamless way. It does so in a way that smartphones aren't as good as, or in the near future it will be that way
@@brianWreaves Oddly enough, that will be your world too. Just as modern society has adopted smartphones as a necessity, XR will be too.

Mat - I would really appreciate a quick update on Agents and their potential... You have mentioned them a few times with a ton of enthusiasm. I have tried digging around on chatgpt but not making much progress. Any chance of a short video to bring us newbies up to speed please??
I have the transition lens and they only make them for the black frames. I don’t like the transitions though. It doesn’t get dark enough for me especially in the car when I need them the most.
the only time i don't like using them is on sunny days in the car. i open the sun roof to get more clarity to darken the lenses on my transition meta's.
The Ray-Ban metaclasses are able to interact with your phone. You say on the video that you can only use WhatsApp or messenger. That is incorrect. You can make calls, second send messages, and activate your personal assistant like right from your phone to perform other tasks. You may want to Test things more thoroughly.
Am I the only one that remembers “Google Glass” from 10 years ago? People with them rapidly became known as “Glass-holes”. Secretly recording video in inappropriate situations. Thinking Meta doesn’t want to know everything it can about you to sell your information. What a dreamer.
Great for biking on my Ebike. I can hear my music fine, and it's nice to have the video and AI along. So would be great for tourism, as they give me similar filming to my Insta360Go, if not quite the quality.
Only one camera and it's on right side. Left is an indicator led. Also, they do have a Transition lense. It's nice but the lenses don't get very dark and don't get dark at all in the car.
Could you please, pretty please, make a video on easy and effective memory usage with crewAI, that can store specific user conversation information for querying later and general information about operations to learn from it and improve? This would help so much
First thought - transition lenses, a simple solution as long as they are high-quality 'transitioners.' The form factor is perfect - regular-looking glasses. Being black, one doesn't notice the cameras.
I’m totally blind, and I think these glasses are awesome, I haven’t gotten them yet because I’m hoping to get them for Christmas this year and being blind. These glasses will help me because it will read to me things that I need to know like for example, I can ask it to read a can of food or a box of something or anything in the pantry without having to ask someone to find it for me, even though they don’t mind I also want to be more independent in these glasses will help me do that. If I’m left alone for a while and I need to know what something is, I can ask the Meta glasses to help me. One question I have is why doesn’t the glasses tell you how much the Case is charging? It tells you how much the glasses are when it comes to battery level, but it doesn’t tell you what’s the battery level on the case itself because I have a friend that has the glasses and that’s what she said.
Matt, you look cool in those sunglasses. Hands feee pics and phone calls are good use cases. AI will get better. Can you hook up other apps besides Meta is the key. Need a meta glasses app store.
You make a very valid point. When your not using your sunglasses the product is pointless in the uk thats a lot 😅. Yes you can put prescription lenses in them but if you dont wear glasses that not going to work plus they are arguably too chunky for sungalsses imo. I admit i fell for the hype, i told myself im gonna buy some of these for my holiday in july so i can leave my camera at the hotel. Dont get me wrong they are cool, sound quality is better than expecting but i decided to return mine for a few reasons. The meta ai isnt avaiable in the uk atm and nobody really knows when thay will be reaolved which is highly disappointing. Its limited to portrait view which is a shame Because the camera is recorded from the left everything is offset The limit of 1 minute recording isnt really enough for anything significant For these reasons i have decided to return them. There is definitely potential with these type of products for the furure but they are not really worth the price tbh ill look forward to some future ones possibly with AR. Great review and keep up the good work
Had them for months now and they are great. A lot more useful than I expected. Use them daily. Wish I had gone with the transition lenses tho. Replaced having to bring airpods with me for most use cases outdoors (except mowing, still want noise cancelling for that)
You can purchase them with Transition lenses. Camera only on one side. The other side is an indicator light to show the camera is activated to anyone facing you.
"I had to do hard reset on my sunglasses, and then..." !! I'm living in this new world, but still can't believe it. Ten years ago, such a statement would have been absurd. Nice to know, though, that with all the recent advances, companies are still using buyers as beta testers who get 'blue screened.' ;- )
It's actually only using llama 2 right now. but llama will come later, I'm sure. also, since these are basically headphones, you can tell siri what to do through them also
You can get transition lenses without prescription for the Meta Ray-Ban AI Glasses. This way, you can enjoy their full functionality, both indoors and outdoors, seamlessly adjusting to different lighting conditions. I get use all day long!
Hey Matthew, great video. I've ordered my Ray Ban Meta glasses and I should be receiving them soon. I have a question that I'm hoping you can help me with. Can I create a personal context window for my ray ban meta glasses ai assistant via the setting on the Meta View App? That way it can answer my question based upon data that might not be generally available?
I’m a runner, so of course when I run, I sweat… I heard a few reviews that these are NOT water proof… would you recommend them or not? Bc I really want to get them boy not if they’re going to be ruined in my first few runs
Very very cool. Thanks so much for this review. I was considering getting these and now I know that I want to have them. At my age I do wear prescription glasses. In my case I chose glasses that get dark at sunshine so I could use my glasses all the time. Hopefully I can get that in these as well and possibly over here in Europe, where WhatsApp is much more common anyway. Thanks again for your brilliant presentation.
No HUD,AR or VR in this form factor is a deal breaker for me. I'd buy them if they had that. Agents would be great but by the time we have agents that can do what most people want we won't really need UA-camrs giving us reviews either lol. No one will have a job. I can't wait for abundance.
Thank you for sharing that Matt it was interesting. This is something I would be interested in but I think I'm going to wait a little while longer until they fix all the bugs.
As a daily glasses wearer, I'd be concerned about the charging pad location. The nose bridge is often the dirtiest place on glasses as it slowly slides down over the day and scrapes oil and other gunk from your nose, which is already a place ripe with oils. I'm hoping that the next location they choose will not be one with constant face contact. :)
My guess is that meta is trying to distance themselves from Google and their Google Glass / glasshole debacle. By making these an outdoor device they can minimize the problems with highly social interactions.
When we combine these glasses with a companion/assistant like what gpt-4o offers, that's when the magic is going to happen.
Yeah then these companies will have complete control of our daily interactions. End game
Waiting for it. There might be a little manual effort to turn on chatgpt.

The lenses they come with should be treated like the free sample filament that comes with a 3D printer.
It's a starting point.
I would want bifocal transitions, clear on top magnifying on bottom.
Getting custom lenses should just be part of your budget.
it should be elecrochromic glass that you can tell the AI to turn on/off the "sunglass" mode.

I’m not a fan of transitions. They never get dark enough and they don’t get clear enough quickly enough.
Transitions don't work in the car. They're triggered by UV which car windows block.
CORRECTION: The Meta sunglasses only have one camera (left side), the other side is used as an indicator light to let others know you're recording.
He might’ve got his info from the v1… I think those had 2… one for video and the other for photos

I say good luck to them using T-9 and a tiny screen to achieve that...
Mat - I would really appreciate a quick update on Agents and their potential... You have mentioned them a few times with a ton of enthusiasm. I have tried digging around on chatgpt but not making much progress. Any chance of a short video to bring us newbies up to speed please??
hat blocking the photo notifications is so cool
It would be of more value if it told the user the hat is blocking prior to taking a photo.
@brianWreaves how would it know you're about to take a picture

Do you know what size you ordered? I got the transitionals which is awesome but they are kinda tight. I think I need the larger size.
Transition lenses are the only way to use them throughout any situation, but then the battery isn't great so you've gotta charge em often
I have the transition lens and they only make them for the black frames. I don’t like the transitions though. It doesn’t get dark enough for me especially in the car when I need them the most.
the only time i don't like using them is on sunny days in the car. i open the sun roof to get more clarity to darken the lenses on my transition meta's.
The Ray-Ban metaclasses are able to interact with your phone. You say on the video that you can only use WhatsApp or messenger. That is incorrect. You can make calls, second send messages, and activate your personal assistant like right from your phone to perform other tasks. You may want to Test things more thoroughly.
Am I the only one that remembers “Google Glass” from 10 years ago? People with them rapidly became known as “Glass-holes”. Secretly recording video in inappropriate situations. Thinking Meta doesn’t want to know everything it can about you to sell your information. What a dreamer.
What size are they? L or M?
I need these as clear wrap around safety glasses for work. Like the 3M around-eye foam cover safety glasses that protect from dust around the eye.
Great for biking on my Ebike. I can hear my music fine, and it's nice to have the video and AI along. So would be great for tourism, as they give me similar filming to my Insta360Go, if not quite the quality.
Only one camera and it's on right side. Left is an indicator led. Also, they do have a Transition lense. It's nice but the lenses don't get very dark and don't get dark at all in the car.
Does Meta provide normal glasses versions (non-sunglaseses)? If so, that seems like the best option if you want to wear these all day long.
Could you please, pretty please, make a video on easy and effective memory usage with crewAI, that can store specific user conversation information for querying later and general information about operations to learn from it and improve? This would help so much
I will never say "hey Meta"
This is the future, how AI be used in real life
First thought - transition lenses, a simple solution as long as they are high-quality 'transitioners.' The form factor is perfect - regular-looking glasses. Being black, one doesn't notice the cameras.
You should have gotten transition lenses
I’m totally blind, and I think these glasses are awesome, I haven’t gotten them yet because I’m hoping to get them for Christmas this year and being blind. These glasses will help me because it will read to me things that I need to know like for example, I can ask it to read a can of food or a box of something or anything in the pantry without having to ask someone to find it for me, even though they don’t mind I also want to be more independent in these glasses will help me do that. If I’m left alone for a while and I need to know what something is, I can ask the Meta glasses to help me. One question I have is why doesn’t the glasses tell you how much the Case is charging? It tells you how much the glasses are when it comes to battery level, but it doesn’t tell you what’s the battery level on the case itself because I have a friend that has the glasses and that’s what she said.
Should have used a photochromatic lens that auto-adjusts to the light conditions.
Matt, you look cool in those sunglasses. Hands feee pics and phone calls are good use cases. AI will get better. Can you hook up other apps besides Meta is the key. Need a meta glasses app store.
You make a very valid point. When your not using your sunglasses the product is pointless in the uk thats a lot 😅. Yes you can put prescription lenses in them but if you dont wear glasses that not going to work plus they are arguably too chunky for sungalsses imo.
I admit i fell for the hype, i told myself im gonna buy some of these for my holiday in july so i can leave my camera at the hotel. Dont get me wrong they are cool, sound quality is better than expecting but i decided to return mine for a few reasons.
The meta ai isnt avaiable in the uk atm and nobody really knows when thay will be reaolved which is highly disappointing.
Its limited to portrait view which is a shame
Because the camera is recorded from the left everything is offset
The limit of 1 minute recording isnt really enough for anything significant
For these reasons i have decided to return them. There is definitely potential with these type of products for the furure but they are not really worth the price tbh ill look forward to some future ones possibly with AR.
Great review and keep up the good work
Had them for months now and they are great. A lot more useful than I expected. Use them daily. Wish I had gone with the transition lenses tho. Replaced having to bring airpods with me for most use cases outdoors (except mowing, still want noise cancelling for that)
They do sell transition lens version. You can use indoor and outdoor
You can purchase them with Transition lenses. Camera only on one side. The other side is an indicator light to show the camera is activated to anyone facing you.
"I had to do hard reset on my sunglasses, and then..." !! I'm living in this new world, but still can't believe it. Ten years ago, such a statement would have been absurd. Nice to know, though, that with all the recent advances, companies are still using buyers as beta testers who get 'blue screened.' ;- )
It's actually only using llama 2 right now. but llama will come later, I'm sure. also, since these are basically headphones, you can tell siri what to do through them also
This approach to AI will be the way to go soon. I will buy a product like this as soon as it's open source and my data and not FB.
Matt, just wait for Oakley. They are not playing games.
You can get transition lenses without prescription for the Meta Ray-Ban AI Glasses. This way, you can enjoy their full functionality, both indoors and outdoors, seamlessly adjusting to different lighting conditions. I get use all day long!
Hey Matthew, great video. I've ordered my Ray Ban Meta glasses and I should be receiving them soon. I have a question that I'm hoping you can help me with. Can I create a personal context window for my ray ban meta glasses ai assistant via the setting on the Meta View App? That way it can answer my question based upon data that might not be generally available?
I’m a runner, so of course when I run, I sweat… I heard a few reviews that these are NOT water proof… would you recommend them or not? Bc I really want to get them boy not if they’re going to be ruined in my first few runs
Very very cool. Thanks so much for this review. I was considering getting these and now I know that I want to have them. At my age I do wear prescription glasses. In my case I chose glasses that get dark at sunshine so I could use my glasses all the time. Hopefully I can get that in these as well and possibly over here in Europe, where WhatsApp is much more common anyway. Thanks again for your brilliant presentation.
how can i get a sample for testing?
No HUD,AR or VR in this form factor is a deal breaker for me. I'd buy them if they had that. Agents would be great but by the time we have agents that can do what most people want we won't really need UA-camrs giving us reviews either lol.
No one will have a job. I can't wait for abundance.
Just bought these on Amazon today, I’ll get them tomorrow. Got transitions so I’ll have AI on me at all times
Oh wow, you are like the dude Jessepig man killed in breaking bad
You don’t have to get them as sun glasses. Mine are basically clear frames. Slight blue tent that helps with indoor & outdoor use.
Thank you for sharing that Matt it was interesting. This is something I would be interested in but I think I'm going to wait a little while longer until they fix all the bugs.
As a daily glasses wearer, I'd be concerned about the charging pad location. The nose bridge is often the dirtiest place on glasses as it slowly slides down over the day and scrapes oil and other gunk from your nose, which is already a place ripe with oils.
I'm hoping that the next location they choose will not be one with constant face contact. :)
Think that's bad, check ur finger nails lol
@@Jack-2day Also filled with oil and gunk. Charging pads shouldn't go there either.
Will you even need cameras on your glasses with more than 1080p resolution when you can upscale photos and videos cheaply to an arbitrary resolution?
I would have liked a live demonstration and some example pictures from the device.
So who do you get to put in the prescription?
Anywhere. Ray Ban is Luxxotica, so you can go to any Ray Ban or Lenscrafters, but any optical shop can do it.
My guess is that meta is trying to distance themselves from Google and their Google Glass / glasshole debacle. By making these an outdoor device they can minimize the problems with highly social interactions.
Great point!
They're not for me, but I appreciate the honest review 👍
Great video, thank you!
Do the glasses get darker if the (sun)light is brighter and the other way around?
I feel like Llama will make me walk into a wall for fun.
Surely you can get them with Photochromic lenses so you can use them both in- and outdoors?
Great, as someone who doesn't like it when random people take pictures of me, I have another thing to worry about.. Sunglasses.
Your legal agent will automatically sue them 😂
I don’t think Meta had any idea how popular these would be.
There is just one camera on the left side. The other side is a LED light XD
I don't use Facebook much but I'm sure they allow you to sync your contacts to Messenger. This might solve the text a message problem.
So when will it connect to chatgpt or such?
Not enough features to feed my geek ..but a very honest review thanks
If you use glasses more than you're around an Alexa
