Not from Meta for sure.
And for all the people hating on these there are real world applications that could truly help folks. I’m very ADHD. My brain goes on tangents. I forget mid sentence what I was going to say. I have a terrible time remembering peoples names. These are all things this type of technology could help me with. But they would have to be implemented with the correct privacy guards in place. And I wouldn’t touch anything from Zuck with a 39 ½ foot pole.
These are valid reasons that I'd consider getting one for myself. But big tech says fuck accessibility, let's cram it full of bullshit instead. And that's on top of the privacy concerns that they seem focused on shoving under the rug rather than making it obvious if someone's using these.
