MARK Zuckerberg has unveiled a pair of AI smart glasses that you can talk to.
The new tech specs, made in partnership with Ray-Ban, have the company’s new Meta AI chatbot inside and can scan the world around you using a camera.

You can speak out loud to the new Ray-Ban Meta Glasses and ask questions.
And, after a new software update coming next year, the glasses will be able to analyze what you’re seeing using a built-in camera.
The Meta AI in your glasses could translate a sign that you’re seeing, or identify a building that you’re looking at.
Mark Zuckerberg described Meta AI as a personal assistant while announcing the technology at the annual Meta Connect conference.
You can ask it questions about almost anything on your phone – but the Meta Glasses allow you to make the same requests using your voice.
Meta AI is also connected to search engine content (courtesy of Microsoft’s Bing), so you can even ask for live information from the web.
Meta launched its first smart glasses, the Ray-Ban Stories, in September 2021, but they were mainly designed to record video clips.
The new specs are fitted with AI and will be like wearing a computer on your face.

They’re the first smart glasses built with Meta AI inside them.
WHAT ELSE IS NEW?
Aside from AI upgrades, the Ray-Ban Meta Glasses will still let you record video.
The glasses come fitted with a new ultra-wide 12-megapixel camera.
You can capture Full HD 1080p videos up to 60 seconds in length.
There’s also a feature to quickly send photos to friends and family with a single voice command.
And a new feature allows you to live-stream footage to friends right from your face.
Audio has received some upgrades, with new custom speakers that provide extended bass (“double the bass, boom,” as one Meta speaker said) and 50 percent higher maximum volume.
There’s also improved directional audio that promises “reduced audio leakage” even when it’s noisy or windy, according to Meta.
Plus, the company said audio pick-up is better thanks to a five-mic array.
They also have a “lighter and more comfortable” design, according to Meta.
Meta said that if you’re using the charging case, you’ll get 36 hours of usage.
The glasses are available in a range of different colors and styles.
