The scene is as follows: We are wearing META’s latest ray-ban glasses with a new feature called Live AI. I am preparing to travel for four hours as a son -in -law for Christmas vacation. I am planning to eat the next morning. Because I am 99.9 % convinced, I am convinced that there will be no brain cells to adjust edible cells at 5 am. I don’t even know if I have a meal With ~. Open the refrigerator door and say, “Mea, Live AI.” Suddenly, the voice of John CENA enters my ears and says that the live AI session has begun.
“What breakfast can you have with the ingredients of the refrigerator?” Ask.
The interior is a sad scenery with a big kettle of the food, eggs, soda, seasonings, Greek yogurt baths and maple syrup. META-AI-AS-John-Cena replies that you can create a variety of breakfast dishes, such as “scrambled eggs, omelets or yogurt parfait.”
Obviously, there is no fresh fruit to create a parfait. There are two eggs in the egg box. My spouse put an empty milk box in the refrigerator. I reminded me that my stomach was bumpy and skipped lunch. I save breakfast ideas, open the freezer door instead and ask what kind of dinner can be made with internal ingredients. It is mostly frozen pizza, assortment of frozen vegetables and hamburger bread. I have heard of “frozen meals, fried ferry, casserol.”
I decided to order for dinner. Drive through breakfast on the road.
This is a matter of Live AI. More often, I do not know when to use it. When I do it, the answer I get is so obvious.

The pitch of Live AI is that you can talk to AI assistant like a friend. It is similar to the multimodal AI function of the glasses, but it is not necessary to prompt the AI continuously. It knows when you talk about it (perhaps). You can also connect multiple queries and subsequent questions together. If you are in cooking classes and slightly out of something, you will design the instructor to the flag and they will tell you what you do wrong and how to fix it. This is a kind of version, but it means INCORPOREAL AI living in glasses. It can see what you see and help you in real time.
It is a wonderful concept. But when I was time to use live AI without guard rails I received a stump. Whenever the question pops up in my head, it automatically reaches the phone. That has been trained for more than 10 years. The first and biggest obstacle to use of Live AI was to remember that it is an option.
The second problem was to know when Live AI was. more It is more useful than a quick Google search. Meta proposed to try a scenario related to fashion and cooking. I have already told you how my cooking queries went. So I asked AI what color combinations should be made with pastel press on nail sets of various colors.
The AI suggested that the combination of pastel colors will complement the pink nails nicely. I asked which of the books on my shelf should read. The AI reminded me that “I have no personal preference,” but reminded me, “You have to read a book that you can read or read for a while.” I was dissatisfied, and I asked if I was most popular. I suggested to find it online. I tried some more scenarios and I was curious.
The most useful experience I gained from Live AI was when I asked how to zhuzh in the home office. At first I got another Milquetoast answer. We added art works, plants, and re -arranged furniture to create a more cozy atmosphere. I am annoyed. I asked it category The work of the work of the work will look good. Again, “various works of art” said that it can look good depending on my personal style. Have you considered adding posters, prints, or pictures that reflect my interests and hobbies? I wanted to scream, but instead, I asked what kind of poster I liked. today In the room. To it, I got the first somewhat useful answer. A colorful and mischievous poster with interesting design or cute characters can complement the stuffed animals in the room. I asked artists to investigate. It proposed a “playful and quirky style” to Lisa Congdon, Camille Rose Garcia and Jen Corace.

And there’s the biggest repetitive problem I am with AI. You need to know how to ask the right question to get the answer you want.
I just told Meta AI, “I was able to get sadness if I wanted to do a work in my room. What kind of artist should we look at based on what’s here? ” This technology comes naturally to some people. My spouse is Whiz in prompting AI. But it is a skill to learn from our rest. There are few people who teach us how to reconnect our brains to take advantage of this technology best.

After searching the internet proposed by the artist META AI, I left for Square One again. I loved their art, but none of them my style. I conveyed my experience to my best friend, and he rolled her eyes and immediately sent three artists from Instagram. I loved them all. She said in a voice, I just asked her and should not bother the bot. She said, unlike Meta AI, she actually knew me.
Live AI has other problems besides philosophical problems. It is difficult to differentiate when talking with others in the room. At some point, it said that it lied straight and witnessed feeding cats when I didn’t do it. (It was confusing to say that my spouse feeded Kitty.) It only works for 30 minutes before the battery falls. In other words, you should intentionally use the method of use. It is difficult to do when there is almost no obvious use case.
I do not oppose live AI. The most important vision is that we all are like Tony STARK, so they wear great glasses with their own little mercy. The future feels inevitable when receiving a hand hold through a controlled demo and magical. The fantasy begins to break when you leave to explore alone. And once that happens, you will contact you 9 of 10 of your cell phones.
