About Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses new AI update

According to a Meta blog post, the AI assistant integrated into the Meta Ray- Ban glasses has been upgraded, now users will not only be able to talk to the assistant, but now it will also be able to tell you what you are seeing in front of you. Meta says, “You can ask Meta AI for help writing a caption for a photo taken during a hike or you can ask Meta AI to describe an object you're holding.”

Meta also notifies that the feature is only being tested to gather feedback on multimodal AI features. Therefore, the features will be available to only a limited of users for testing and sharing feedback. Later, the company promised to make the required changes to launch the new AI upgrade globally for all the Meta AI glasses users.

What users can ask to Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses?

Meta laid out some examples of what users can ask the glasses. It said they can ask about a building, restaurants, objects, and more. Below are some of the example:

• Hey Meta, who won the Boston Marathon this year in the men's division?
• Hey Meta, is there a pharmacy close by?
• Write a funny Instagram caption about this dog.”

Additionally, Zuckerberg also shared an Instagram video post to show the followers how the new AI features of Meta smart glasses will work. He took out a shirt from his closet and asked the AI glasses, “Hey Meta, look and tell me what pants to wear with the shirt." Then, the glass swiftly replied with, "Based on the image, it appears to be a striped shirt. A pair of dark washed jeans or solid-color trousers would complement this shirt well."
