No one knows what to call these things

AI glasses? Wired XR glasses? AR glasses?

I got a few suggestions:

  • Spywear
  • Panopticals
  • Suckerbucks
  • LensCrappers

The thing is, if these things had a reason for existing besides being data-collection apparatuses for big tech, I would love them. Not to wear out and about, but for various tasks where a heads-up display would be useful. Like, imagine working on an Arduino, ESP32, etc project and having the pinout overlaid. Or having them display the readout from a multimeter while you’re doing electrical work.

Here’s hoping the jailbreak scene on these is promising.

    I’ll take “solutions to non-existent problems” for $500.

    Problem, how to get images of women in public for later “study”.
