Mark Zuckerberg envisions a future where Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered glasses aren’t just cool, they’re essential. During Meta’s Q2 earnings call, he predicted that those without AI eyewear may soon face a serious "cognitive disadvantage."
Echoing ideas from his blog post on 'superintelligence,' Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg emphasized during the company’s Q2 earnings call, that smart glasses will be the primary way humans interact with AI.
“I think in the future, if you don’t have glasses that have AI, or some way to interact with AI — you’re probably going to be at a pretty significant cognitive disadvantage,” he told investors.
Zuckerberg believes glasses are ideal for AI interaction since they can 'see what you see, hear what you hear, and talk to you,' making them a natural fit for digital assistants.
He pointed to Meta’s investment in devices such as the Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta glasses, which already support features like music, photos, and voice AI. Sales of these devices have reportedly tripled year-over-year.
Still, he stressed the importance of incorporating displays into these glasses, referencing upcoming Augmented Reality (AR) products such as Meta’s Orion headset.
Reality Labs, Meta’s division focused on AR and VR, continues to operate at a loss—$4.53 billion in Q2 alone, but Zuckerberg frames it as a long-term bet on the future of computing.
While other tech players like OpenAI, Humane, and Limitless experiment with AI pins and pendants, Zuckerberg maintains that glasses will lead the way.
