So if you have the Meta Ray-Bans, you're talking to a very competent agent, but it's a Meta assistant that you're talking to.

I shouldn't say age, I should say assistant in this case, because you're not going to be able to get the Ray-Bans to do much action for you on the web.

OK, so one of the components of the Halliday system is this ring that you see here.

The Daily AI Show

I'm going to hold it up a little closer to the camera.

It's a really nicely organized ring.

And you wear it on your index finger like this to control the display inside the glasses.

Now, there's a little, you can see right here, you see there's that little,

projector that projects this green circular display directly into my eye.

And I can read that pretty well.

I was able to adjust the glasses and get it done.

And then, you know, I found it really, really cumbersome to try to use this little track pad that's on the ring.

And it was slow.

There was latency.

I'd click it and nothing would happen.

And then I'd

you know be swiping around and trying to get something to happen and then i'd have to start over again and it was just it was a mess well so i wanted to show you the idea of the ring and just talk about smart rings that exist out there right now and a new ring that's just been announced that that that takes a totally different approach to this and uh and i'll explain that in a moment

But generally speaking, smart rings are these ones that have the ability to track your health stats, and they can do something in integration with your phone, and they have sensors in them.

There's one called Aura or something, I think, that gives you like a mood ring thing.

Anyway, all of that makes for the requirement that the ring be rechargeable.

And you can see there's a little charging port on the back of this ring.
