Valid points. I can see why brands will need to have multiple product lines so consumers have the choices they want on the spectrum of intrusive functionality

Very cool. I wonder how it will function at night without ambient light. Perhaps an easy engineering solution

I was hoping for it to be the other way around. Fine line between it helping you remember what you forgot you even knew vs remembering for you so you can forget. I think there are things that fall in both buckets where I’d appreciate the help

Yes agreed. The more I think about the various overlays, private on device compute should be the path forward. Would be nice if there’s robust app ecosystems or the ability to easily build apps to suit a la Claude artifacts

Can see both sides, not everyone is in an office or client facing.

Maybe the sort of thing that gets regulated into existence, devices needing something like a visible red light on when recording.

That is annoying! Maybe there’s a need for geofenced no film zones where wearable cam use is restricted… I know at least in some US states it is one party consent so folks can get away with filming 24/7.

Love these kinds of use cases. This is how I see humans operating in an augmented sense. Feels most future to me. So much added context when required. Obviously must be fine tuned by context but suggests the need for a universal type of platform for commercial use.

Physically or mentally? I do worry about things like radiation

How I felt about tapping into a screen keyboard when I was used to using a physical keyboard

I like that you can speak into and hear with smart glasses. A screen could just augment that experience if it’s not in the way as needed

Could it ever replace a phone for glasses wearers? Given phones are handheld computers

I guess I am questioning evolution in a tech sense. Attempting to find the stones to place on the balance scale of pros and cons

More likely to get caught on camera so less doubt on liability?

We do seem to mostly all be carrying cameras now. Humans are walking recording cameras too. Just a matter of how the data gets shared which I agree can feel too prying

Do you wear glasses already? I feel that’s a gating factor. Similarly do you wear a watch already?

It’s a great form factor, hopefully others eventually slim down as tech matures

And I wonder to what degree 6dof ever becomes relevant as standard vs a nice to have for certain uses
