And still, I don’t get their use case unless it’s to be deliberately sneaky. Even their own ads are just “if you’re a pathetic idiot with no friends or ability to plan ahead even a little bit, these are the glasses for you!”

At a fancy restaurant by yourself and don’t know how the utensils work?

Need a hotel and just wanna blindly trust your glasses?

Can’t speak the local language at a resort full of anglophones and the attendant for some reason only speaks that language?

Or maybe you’re at a concert by yourself and really need to film something(you don’t, everyone else should be putting their fucking phones away, too).

Like LLMs, they’re a sad technology for sad, stupid people.

How do we feel about flock or similar camera networks around the world? Like yeah a dude with cameras on his face is one issue and then there's the systemic distribution of millions of cameras which is arguably worse but feels more normal to many.

Those are used for good and by proper authorities. We need to sacrifice a little abit of liberty for getting a lot more security.
