I am not the core audience for this product as I loathe Meta with a passion but I’m also an IT professional with primary focus on hardware and system architecture/networking with 30 years experience. This explanation sounds painfully accurate and very plausible and just short sighted enough to pass my smell test. That doesn’t mean it’s accurate but I totally believe it.
Those glasses should have been sandboxed to hell and back if not totally scripted/faked for demo purposes. Wouldn’t be the slightest bit surprised if somebody gets fired because of it.
In my opinion it just makes the whole thing more real. I’m excited about the tech, just not from Meta. I’d become a full blown Luddite before I wear anything with a Meta name on it.
Sysadmin for the last decade, 100% agreed. In fact, the explanation kinda had me laughing. "Yep, I can see that exact scenario!"
