The specs [0] are quite interesting, in that they're nothing fancy which enables the small form factor. I'm guessing the main intent here is to do as much as possible off-device? 4GB of RAM is not nothing, but it's not much if you want to use any advanced models, never mind what that'll do to battery life.

- fatnoah 2y agoIt's been a few years since I worked on wearables at Meta, so things may have changed, but the goal from the beginning was to move as much compute off the device as possible to deal with the related problems of power consumption and heat generation. For the particular wearable my time was very focused on at the time, heat was actually the larger issue.

- cco 2y agoThen why can't my Meta Ray Bans use a non-Meta AI assistant??? Haha I understand why but my only real complaint about the glasses is that I'm stuck with Meta AI. Would be so nice if I could plug Gemini or Open AI into it. Great product overall but suffers from not having an SDK and lock in on the model.
- Etheryte 2y agoUnfortunately pretty much every modern product suffers from the same fate, we can't even have widely used open standards for messaging interoperability. We're lucky the open internet, email, irc and etc were invented before all of this enshittification, all of those would be very different if they were invented today.
