“When the chef said, ‘Hey Meta, start Live AI,’ it started every single Ray-Ban Meta’s Live AI in the building," he said. “And there was a lot of people in that building.”
You don’t think of that before the demo?? What’s fucking wrong with you?
And also, is that not a huge security oversight, if anyone can just trigger anybody elses glasses to start streaming live video to the cloud?
They fired all the thinkers and replaced them with ai
“DAMMIT JIAN YANG!”
‘Hey Meta, start Live AI,’
gonna say this every time I see one in public.
They didn’t think of that before they lied about it
Just commented, about every tech fuck up was obvious in hindsight.
DDOSing yourselves explains slow response or no response, but the chef supposedly DDOSing the dev server doesn’t explain away the AI arguing with him on what part of the cooking process he’s in. That sort of hallucination is baked in and frankly unfixable.
The sad thing is, having a quality camera and some smart features integrated into your glasses could be useful. Think about a hands free video call to your mother, helping you with a recipe. Or making a cool sport video without a gopro. Taking a quick photo or checking map directions during your vacation, without having to constantly hold your phone in your hand.
So the possibility is there, but insted we get it from the biggest privacy nigthmare company on the planet, and have it packed full of useless AI shit. No way I would ever touch this
Could be useful for work, showing videos of people doing the task you are on or whatever.
But I would want to shut on or off and no spying when off, strict rules when on. Since ai cannot well understand the info we may need on a task idk but it could be useful for some of my work.
You made me consider the utility of having a heads-up map on the trail or on the water. I’m constantly having to stop, pull my phone, open Google Maps, wait for it to load my new position, wave it around.

“That obviously didn’t happen in rehearsal,” Bosworth said. “We didn’t have as many things.”
It wasn’t the only major blunder Meta encountered during its keynote.
Since Meta routed all traffic to its “dev server,” including from all of the headsets in the building, “we DDoS’d ourselves, basically,” Bosworth admitted, referring to a common cyberattack strategy known as a “denial-of-service attack” that attempts to bring a network down by overwhelming it with phony internet traffic.
I loved this episode of Silicon Valley. So glad they brought the series back.
The article missed the best part.
When the AI failed to help with the recipe, they blamed the wifi.
And Zuckerberg backed it up! He also blamed the wifi.
Like dude the AI is reaching skynet BC it responded to you, the wifi is clearly working.
It’s like the time Musky blamed his internet for his Path of Exile bullying. The whole purpose of playing Path of Exile to show how great Starlink can be.
Been a sysadmin the last 10 years, in general IT for over 20. Their story makes perfect sense. They rehearsed with a handful of devices, then handed out a shitload for the live demo.
It’s not that the wifi was bad, they swamped it. Foreseeable? Sure, but just about every tech fuck up was obvious in hindsight.
The dumb part is expecting these things to take off. People were getting punched in the face over Google Glass and I don’t think human nature has taken a wild swing in the last few years. Even if I wanted a pair, I wouldn’t wear that shit in public.
I’m also not sure how they avoid civil and criminal charges in states that are two-party consent (to being recorded). Anyone know how that works?
They also routed all traffic from within the building to their dev server. Who does that?? Vlan that shit. Noobs
I’m almost positive that what actually happened is that the response the chef cut off included an instruction to mix the ingredients, but he cut it off before it could say that. I bet the LLM doesn’t get any feedback about whether or not the voice module got through the whole response, so it couldn’t account for him not having heard it. He probably could have gotten back on track by saying something like “I haven’t mixed the ingredients yet, let’s start over.”
The ingredients list it was going through before he cut it off probably mentioned the pear too, which would have been a good time for him to say “We don’t have a pear, is there a sauce we can make using only the ingredients visible here?” but he was afraid of going off script.
Maybe, but this is being marketed as a solution to everyone’s problems using AI not a fancy auto complete. Most people would not try to decipher why it went the wrong way, just that it did and it was supposed to be a know it all magic box but it didn’t behave like one.
Thanks for posting, this is really cheerful!
Those glasses are so fucking dorky.
android zuckerborg needs it to scan peoples minds,
C’mon guys, put these things on your faces so I can stop giving Apple and Google money.
I’d sooner nail my bollocks to the mast of a sinking ship than give money to meta.
hmm, does this mean that all those expensive AI scientists will be laid off now? 🫤
I’m going to be sorry for those guys for trusting this company.
Poor develppers just thought they were developing the downfall of society! So sad they will not soon author the dismissal of humans from white collar jobs en masse. /s
