Remember Google Glass? It was a futuristic vision that arrived a decade too early. Now, Google is planning a 2026 relaunch, and this time, everything has changed.In this episode of the Inspiring Tech Leaders podcast, I discuss the relaunch of this technology, but this isn't just a reboot; it's a complete transformation powered by AI and a new, critical focus on wearability.In this episode I explore: 💡 Why the original 2013 version failed (price, awkwardness, social acceptance)💡 How AI is turning smart glasses into a contextual assistant, not just a screen💡 The fierce competition from Meta (Ray-Ban) and the crucial role of fashion and design💡 The biggest challenge: Will we ever fully accept wearable cameras and microphones?Smart glasses are poised to become the next serious frontier in personal computing. Do you think Google's second attempt will succeed, or will privacy concerns hold back the mass adoption of smart glasses?Available on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | All major podcast platformsSend me a messageStart building your thought leadership portfolio today with INSPO.
