Meta Plans to Add Facial Recognition Technology to Its Smart Glasses
- aanet 8mo agoIt's the inevitable next step in FB's "AI glasses" --> facial recognition. It's the use case everyone was warning about, going back to the good (bad) ol' glassh*le days. So much for learning from history. This looks deliberate. I'd rather wear a CV-dazzle type mask if I see another guy wearing his AI glasses.

- intosi 8mo agoLaunching this “[...] during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns” is just several levels of wow...
- ceejayoz 8mo agoThat is a wild thing to admit in writing.
- reaperducer 8mo agoMeta already had to settle a class action lawsuit for running facial recognition on people in the background of Facebook photos in states where this is illegal. And tech privacy laws have become stronger and more widespread since then. So I'm looking forward to getting another $400 check in the mail from Meta.
- givinguflac 8mo agoSerious question- how does one defend against this besides wearing a mask or face paint? I want nothing to do with these glassholes.
- everybodyknows 8mo agoSocial pressure? Maybe thin wire frames soon becoming the only acceptable style -- the only one that doesn't lead people to assume the wearer is a creep.
