AI Glasses Future: Can Meta Survive Apple & Google?

What I Found

After two months with Oakley Meta frames, AI glasses still feel more like smart camera glasses than true AI.

After two months of living with the Oakley Meta frames, I keep coming back to the same question: are these actually AI glasses, or are we calling them that because it sounds better than smart camera glasses?

Right now, Meta has the lead because its glasses are real, wearable, and tied to strong style partnerships with Ray-Ban and Oakley. But I do not think that lead is guaranteed. If Apple or Google releases AI glasses with better assistant behavior, stronger ecosystem features, and more flexible sharing, Meta could be in trouble fast.
