After two months with Oakley Meta frames, AI glasses still feel more like smart camera glasses than true AI companions. The future depends on better AI, better battery life, and less ecosystem lock-in.

The useful answer is not whether the product sounds good, but whether it earns a place in the workflow after the first impression wears off.
Gemini 2.5 Flash Image can repair and colorize old family photos quickly, but the best results came from damaged black-and-white images. Newer photos mostly saw cleanup, and some faces may change slightly.

AI glasses and AR glasses are not the same thing. AI glasses are built for voice, cameras, and hands-free help, while AR glasses put digital visuals in front of your eyes.
September’s tech calendar is lining up around Apple’s iPhone 17 event, Meta Connect smart glasses updates, and growing OpenAI rumors around a browser and possible AI device.

AI browsers like Perplexity Comet raise a practical security question: how much autonomy should they have when they can use logged-in accounts, saved passwords, and shopping sites on your behalf?

DIA can help draft social media replies from highlighted text, then insert the response into a Facebook comment box for you to review and post yourself.
