Meta has filed a patent for its AI smartglasses that uses facial recognition to automatically detect who is in the frame, creates a video clip whenever one of those people does something \u2014 like picking an item up or walking around \u2014 and then generates a highlight reel of what just happened, according to a copy of the patent published Thursday. One example given is the system capturing highlights from a dinner party and then serving those up to the user.<\/p>\n
The patent gives new, granular insight into what Meta may be planning around its highly controversial push into facial recognition in combination with its AI glasses, which have already been widely lauded<\/a> as \u201cpervert glasses.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \ud83d\udca1<\/p>\n Do you work at Meta and know anything else about these glasses?
