Unfortunately it’s unlikely for this to be implemented in a privacy-respecting way. Arguably, even if it never “phones home”, it’s always going to be a more risky option—e.g. police can seize the glasses and see who you’ve seen, whereas they can’t seize your brain and see what faces you’ve seen. You might be fine with that risk, but will everyone you ever meet be fine with it?
This tech for blind people could become fantastic, ai in general should be great for people with disabilities.
Same for a lot of jobs. I’m colourblind and can’t be an electrician, but if I had AR labelling the wires in basically real time it would be a different story.
Jackasses making weird noises on the subway and filming people ruin the potential of this stuff.
Who else would wear this shit?
I suffer from prosopagnosia (face blindness), so facial recognition would be legitimately useful for me.

People with the need for A/R overlays on their vision? I can see their use in very specific situations but IDK why you would constantly wear them.
