Meta expected to unveil smart glasses without camera as privacy concerns grow

  • On Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Meta chief AI officer Alexandr Wang introduced the Muse AI assistant at Meta Connect 2026 in Menlo Park, California, integrating it across the company's hardware ecosystem.
  • Zuckerberg presented Muse as an early step toward his vision of "personal superintelligence," stating "the reason why Meta exists is because we actually believe in people."
  • Muse now handles shopping via Stripe, Shopify's Shop Pay, and PayPal, though Amazon has blocked the assistant from its site; Meta requires user approval before completing sensitive purchases or emails.
  • Meta also debuted new Glasses delivering an "IMAX-grade cinema experience" with spatial computing, alongside audio glasses featuring hearing assistance for adults 18 and older with Disney and YouTube app control.
  • Expanding to Canada, Muse will see further international availability soon as Meta connects its vision for personal AI superintelligence with its growing hardware collection.
