Succinctly articulates something I try to point out all the time. They exist to forward Zuck’s agenda. People will find ways to use them, but they are fundamentally an anti social technology that exists to erode consent.
This device should not exist because it *can't* exist without a market of perverted individuals.
It will be marketed for sports, for health, for fashion, for safety, but it is not *designed* to satisfy those purposes and will never be optimised to.

The meta glasses have no socially justifiable purpose to exist. They only exist for Mark Zuckerberg's purposes and they can only sell outside of a novelty capacity to people who want to use them for socially hostile purposes.

This makes for a product which *hopes* for fashion as a selling point to socially empathetic people.
But, really, it's a product which *relies* on socially hostile buyers who find value in the technology features and invisibility of the device's capabilities behind the fashion.

AI glasses blend form and function, helping you stay connected and present – in style
Stay connected more easily than ever Discreet open-ear speakers let you take calls that only you'll hear, and send and receive messages across a variety of apps – all hands-free.
Ask your glasses anything with Hey Meta Chat with Meta AI to get suggestions, answers, reminders and more.
Capture high-quality photos and videos Use voice controls to record and share hands-free, and stay in the moment.
All of the offered use cases (see bsky.app/profile/fast...) are uncompelling, unfocused, and inferior to existing devices that do not go on your face, while meta is not accountable for any use cases found by people using the device.

The device *is* socially hostile but that is a side-effect of the device having no (marketable) purpose.
The only plausible purposes are the empty, greedy, power-hungry, purposes of Mark, and he is *the* designer.

"design" is interesting here. They have designers working on parts at a time, UX, hardware, software, aesthetics, but these groups are not united by an overarching (marketable) purpose, they are detached from the bigger picture and designing for their domain purposes

Just acted as witness to the marriage of two complete strangers at the courthouse because they met me outside and “had a good feeling about [me]”. All the best to David and Veronica in their life together

That’s the thing though. It’s not a crisis of masculinity. We’re far, far away from Iron John and Fire in The Belly or a male social club.
The crisis is that men have been sold a bill of goods on violence and cruelty as “masculinity” and they’re all finding no bank accepts their currency.
something about being in my late 30s really has me sitting at the window watching the birds jumping in the little dishes of water i set out for them in the garden, i can’t get enough of this shit despite having no preexisting interest in the business of birds.

A fanart of meowth but instead of his usual forehead coin, its a 1 real from Brasil
Não lembro se já comentei aqui do dia que sonhei que lançaram um Meowth regional BR que era exatamente igual, mas tinha a moeda de 1 real na testa
Sinto que precisava materializar essa informação

This is equivalent to when people notice a problem in these AI systems and then others check and claim it's fake. You just cannot know because the web is continually being scraped by these systems. It's "please, just one more if-statement, bro" and shifting sands. Any nonsense can be patched in.
