One example given is the system capturing highlights from a dinner party and then serving those up to the user.<\/p>\n<p>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 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.404media.co\/meta-ray-ban-smart-glasses-pov-instagram-pickup-artists\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">have already been widely lauded<\/a> as \u201cpervert glasses.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udca1<\/p>\n<p>Do you work at Meta and know anything else about these glasses?
