The company further explained that photos and videos taken with the Ray-Ban Meta glasses will not be utilized for AI model training unless the user chooses to submit them.

In response to inquiries from Tech Crunch, the company, led by Mark Zuckerberg, indicated that “in regions where multimodal AI is accessible (currently the US and Canada), images and videos shared with Meta AI may be employed to enhance it in accordance with our Privacy Policy.”

Recently, Meta introduced new artificial intelligence functionalities to its Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. These enhancements enable users to utilize the camera feature for gathering information about their environment and for receiving reminders regarding the location of their parked vehicle.

Additionally, the glasses are equipped with video capabilities, providing users with ongoing, real-time assistance.

Meta is recognized for utilizing public posts from its social media platforms, such as Facebook and Instagram, to train its artificial intelligence. In a promotional video for the product, the glasses were demonstrated to assist users in selecting outfits by providing a view of their closet.

Naturally, these visuals would encompass the interior spaces of the user’s home. Furthermore, Meta’s privacy policies indicate that all audio transcriptions collected through the glasses are retained for the purpose of training AI models; however, users have the option to opt out of this data collection.
