And I think that idea that AI is shifting away from some of these complex prompts, morphing into a more seamless, invisible utility that helps people navigate daily life.

I think we're

getting there.

But I think in the long-term view, it's still very, very early days.

Yeah, there was, let's just say there was an instant wave of skepticism.

And I think, you know, the internet had a bit of a field day joking about the design.

And also, I mean, anyone who remembers the Google Glass backlash of a decade ago, maybe you've got a right to be cynical.

So how do these things work?

So they basically embed these tiny, low-power cameras into the frame.

There's dual-direction speakers into the arms of the glasses.

And then there's this

display on the lens.

They don't actually do heavy computing.

The idea is that it's going to stream a live video feed of whatever you're looking at via Bluetooth to your phone so that Gemini acts as like a real world visual assistant.

There's a lot of questions about the battery life, the frames overheating, the privacy nightmare as well.

So I think there's a

bit of design and social flaws perhaps that still have to be explored.

I don't think this is where we get the consumer on ramp to AI.

So I'm actually quite skeptical about this particular hardware edge.

I guess we'll see what that looks like, though, in the next couple of years.
