I wore Meta’s smartglasses for a month – and it left me feeling like a creep | AI (synthetic intelligence)

Lately, I’ve been listening to Judi Dench’s voice in my head. She tells me tomorrow’s forecast, when to show proper, that there’s been one other message in my group chat.

This isn’t a delusion. That is, apparently, progress.
