On Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled a slew of new augmented reality glasses, including what he claimed to be the “first AI glasses with high resolution,” a new $799 version of its Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses that features a tiny screen that’s viewable to the wearer.
But it didn’t take long for the company’s MetaConnect 2025 keynote to descend into chaos. The social media giant’s demos repeatedly failed, leading to awkward stares, deafening silences, and muted laughter.
The poor showing painfully demonstrates that the tech is far from ready, even as companies continue to shove AI into every aspect of our daily lives.
It’s super easy. Just stop using these idiot’s services.
The hard part is people feel the need for that connection, be it social with Facebook, where else will they go? Google+ is no longer around, mySpace.
Amazon, what other service provides next day or even same day delivery without leaving the house.
Easy for people to stop going to Trump hotels. That’s a no brainer.
Easier said than done.
Amazon is more than just the shitty 'murican aliexpress and prime video, it’s also AWS, which earns fuckloads of money from corporate customers.
Meta owns Whatsapp, which is the most widely used communication app in the entire world. In some countries, not using whatsapp is the same as being incommunicado.
They also own Instagram, which a LOT of small and medium businesses rely on to find customers
Not so easy for these people who became reliant on them.
