Meta is testing prototype ‘super sensing' AI glasses that continuously record audio and snap photos every few seconds so a wearer's AI can recall or answer questions about their day, according to the Financial Times. Executives are planning not to light the LED that signals recording when the super-sensing features run, making it harder for bystanders to know they are being captured, though those plans could change. Meta is also weighing whether data captured through the glasses could train its own AI models, deepening privacy questions the company says it addresses with protections ‘built in from the ground up.' Always-on recording devices raise unsettled legal questions, including whether Meta or the wearer is liable under state wiretapping laws that bar recording someone without consent, prompting calls for new regulation.
