I’ve always been of the opinion that AR glasses could actually be really cool if done right. Imagine being at a conference or mixer and seeing a persons name and part of their LinkedIn pop up next to them, or be at a sporting event and have stats pop up for the specific player, or your own personal instant replay. Or being at an art museum and have history of the art and artist pop up.
But instead, we get it for seritipitous surveillance and feeding the AI slop machine…
Jesus fucking Christ, what a nightmare.
Why? If you’re at a business conference the understanding is that you’re networking with people in your field and you may not be able to remember everything about everyone. Why not be armed with information to help drive conversations and interactions.
Have you been on LinkedIn before?
Try writing things down.
Blowing up some digital log with names of everyone you looked at would be a nightmare. Nevermind the invasiveness of that kind of logging.
Firstly, because if the computer is doing it then its not "your information", it's "the terminal's information". You're not going to remember it, you're going to handicap yourself by using AR as a crutch.
Secondly, the very fact that you're talking about this like its some kind of military maneuver goes right back to my point about invasiveness. I don't want to weaponize my eyewear. I certainly don't want other people "arming" themselves against me by bumping into me in the hallway.
Fuck real life networking applications.
But dude, the museum thing is rad. Also fishing -- look at the water and learn the cfs and temp. Look at the fish you caught and get species and measurements. Or field dressing a deer or putting a part on a car -- where you need to cut or bolt is highlighted.
I want all of the people/personal info stuff left out, but i still want all of the practical shit.
