Meta files patent for AI glasses that can record memories without command
Meta’s filing describes glasses that use facial recognition and eye-gaze data to decide what to save, while more than 9,000 people have objected to filming.
- On August 13, Meta filed a patent for AI glasses capable of recording 'memory' snippets without user commands, though this technology does not yet exist.
- Determining what to capture relies on a measure of "interestingness" influenced by facial expressions, objects, and "eye gaze data," with the system delivering a 'highlight' file.
- In a hypothetical dinner party, the glasses could automatically zoom in on conversations, building a searchable memory bank where wearers could ask, "what happened at this time in the dinner party?".
- Following the June 23 launch of its latest models, more than 9,000 people have emailed Meta expressing they do not consent to being filmed by the company's AI glasses.
- Users are sending formal objections to Meta, stating, "I am objecting to Meta processing my personal data through its AI glasses ," demanding accountability.
