Zuckerberg’s Meta AI Glasses Demo: A Public Humiliation
At Meta Connect, CEO Mark Zuckerberg showcased new technology, including updated Meta Ray-Bans, a neural wristband, and Meta Ray-Ban Display glasses with a heads-up display. During a demo of the Display glasses and neural wristband, technical difficulties arose when the devices failed to respond to hand gestures, resulting in a live call that did not connect. Further complicating matters, an AI assistant in the Ray-Ban Display glasses struggled to provide clear instructions during a live cooking demonstration. These incidents caused an array of reactions, despite Zuckerberg’s enthusiasm for the new products.
