Augmented reality for the Google Glass. Not, it turns out, for the Meta Raybans, cos they don't even have screens or projectors!

just found out these glasses are not even Augmented Reality. They have neither screens nor projectors. Just cameras, a mic, and bone conduction earphones. The interface is voice control. They are literally only for taking creepshots. So Zuckerberg is staying on-brand.

a lot of companies are chasing the humanoid form because they’ll be able to immediately adapt to existing infrastructure (to replace human workers).

that's the story, but this doesn't work, like, at all, with just a moment's thought.

if humanoid was a good shape we'd have humanoid robots already.

the reason is they're selling sci fi dreams of robot servants even though these dreams are lies.
