New Delhi: If you’re planning to get Meta’s upcoming AI glasses, then stop by. According to reports the company’s new "super sensing" The feature can become a big threat to your privacy. Meta is now making AI-powered smart glasses that can continuously record what you see and hear throughout the day, the Financial Times reports.
According to the news, these new glasses will take photos every few seconds and will also record audio. The biggest concern is that the LED indicator in the glass will not light up during recording.
In the current Meta Ray-Ban glasses, the LED lights up whenever a photo or video is taken. But "super sensing" In mode the company wants to keep this indicator off. This means that the other person will not even know that his conversation is being recorded.
Meta claims that RAW photos or audio will not be stored. The company will only extract metadata from images and voices and send it to its servers. After this, Meta AI will process that data and answer your questions.
For example you can ask AI "where did i put my keys" Or "What was the name of the cafe you went to yesterday". AI will respond by remembering your daily activities. The report also says that these features can also be activated in older Meta glasses through software updates.
The company is also discussing that the data obtained from these glasses can be used to train Meta’s AI model. OpenAI is spending billions of dollars on Meta AI to compete with Google and Anthropic. In such a situation, the daily data of users can be very important for them.

Meta has "project area" Also mentioned, which is a technology to help people without traditional photo-video. It also includes features like automatically converting conversations into text. Mark Zuckerberg has already said that AI glasses can replace smartphones in the future. These devices will work as translation, question-answer and personal assistant. But the feature without LED and continuous recording has started a new debate regarding privacy.
