Between Glass and Google's self-driving cars, it is quite clear that the future of advertising is going to be potentially quite distopian where virtual billboards pop up based on your interest and location and where ads playing in music are based on where you are and what time of day it is. They might be as simple as a McDonalds ad for their mighty wings and your car will change course if you say "I'm loving it!".
This is actually the sort of natural endpoint of what I thought would happen with AR mobile apps and now that Google has Google Now on android, is doing glass and self driving cars, it is pretty clear what the future looks like.
It's more ads.
