    Looking forward to overhearing incels at bars starting every third reply with “as an AI language model, I…”

    What’s it tell you to say to explain the weird ass glasses on your face? lol

    I’ve seen several of these projects in the past couple weeks. If the public wouldn’t accept google glasses and thought they were too invasive who is going to be receptive to these types of glasses that look absolutely ridiculous?

      Even if they were invisible: why would anybody want to date someone that is literally incapable of even just talking to them?

        It could make for a good Black Mirror episode. Two awkward people buy AI glasses and supposedly fall in love with each other, but they’re always just going along with what the AI tells them to say. They end up both saying they have shared interests that they actually hate and while they’re with their dream romantic interest they had before dating, their whole lives are miserable. Finally in advanced age one is dying and can’t wear the glasses. For the first time in their relationship they’re honest, and the two discover that they actually share their real interests and have tons of things in common. However, for fear being rejected they both spent their whole lives miserable with each other instead of having a potentially perfect life together if only one of them had ever taken the glasses off.

          There’s a futurama episode like this except it’s an incredibly old man and and an incredibly fat woman who use stem cells to look young/fit again.

          When the effects wear off they still get it on. So, maybe the black mirror episode will also have a happy ending too.

      I think this is more of a novelty/proof-of-concept rather than offering any serious use case. It does show a lot of potential for this kind of thing. If the form-factor can be refined into something less stupid looking, there could be more appeal in this tech to the general public than there was in 2013. There seems to be more of a collective shrug towards cameras and microphones in public than there was 10 years ago.

    I love that when they explain the word “rizz” they give a list of possible nicknames for rizz-ful people
