Shaun’s Meta Ray-Ban Issues & Talkback 15 Not Coming To Samsung Devices

Today on the show the guys are back discussing Shaun’s recent trip to a luxury hotel and the challenges he had with his Meta Ray-Ban frames, plus we find out why Samsung phone users may not be able to access the Talkback version 15 screenreader on their devices. We start with Shaun’s real world use of the Meta Ray-Ban Frames which has caused him concern in relation to the ability of the artificial intelligence when trying to do simple tasks like reading a menu. It raises an interesting debate about the need for specialist solutions like Be My AI, Envision and Seleste. There’s also a look ahead to this year’s Next Big Thing event held by Vispero for users of JAWS, Zoomtext and Fusion products. The company are back again with an offer of $1000 to the winner of the competition to find the next big feature that could come to the assistive software in 2025. There’s reporting from Android Authority’s Mishaal Rahman that the Google Android screenreader Talkback 15 won’t be making its way to Samsung smartphones. He joins Steven to discuss, and Pocket-Lint’s Patrick O’Rourke reviews the latest Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Fold devices for us.
