Meta智慧眼鏡解鎖「超級智慧」

Meta發布首款帶屏智慧眼鏡 祖克柏：將實現「個人超級智慧」
Meta Platforms創辦人兼執行長祖克柏在9月17日「Meta Connect」大會上，正式發表首款內建顯示螢幕的智慧眼鏡「Meta Ray-Ban Display」。這款眼鏡能在單側鏡片顯示訊息、視訊通話及AI助理回應，售價799美元，預計本月底正式上市。

祖克柏強調，智慧眼鏡是實現「個人超級智慧」的關鍵裝置，未來有望取代智慧型手機成為主流運算平台。他指出：「唯有眼鏡能實現全天候感知環境、即時生成介面的沉浸式體驗。」眼鏡搭配可偵測細微手部動作的腕帶操控，被祖克柏稱為「全球首款主流神經介面」。

然而現場演示出現插曲：祖克柏未能成功接聽Meta技術長Andrew Bosworth的來電，他歸因於WiFi連線問題。此外，同步升級的Ray-Ban系列眼鏡在回應使用者問題時也出現失誤。

值得關注的是，Meta為強化AI布局，近期已第四次重組AI團隊並更名為「Meta超級智慧實驗室」。本次新產品由中國代工廠歌爾聲學製造，彰顯全球供應鏈的緊密協作。

Meta’s New Smart Glasses to Unlock “Super Intelligence”
Meta Platforms founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has launched the company’s first smart glasses with a built-in display, describing it as a wearable device capable of replacing smartphones and crucial to his full commitment to “superintelligence.”

According to comprehensive reports from the Financial Times and CNBC, Zuckerberg introduced the “Meta Ray-Ban Display” smart glasses at the Meta Connect flagship event on September 17. The glasses can display text messages, video calls, or responses from the Meta AI assistant on one lens.

Zuckerberg hopes that smart glasses will eventually replace Apple’s iPhone and Google’s Android smartphones, becoming widely adopted computing devices. At the event, he stated, “To enable a computing device to see what you see, hear what you hear, converse with you all day, and generate user interfaces in real time within your field of view, glasses are the only viable form factor.”

Priced at $799 and set to go on sale later this month, the glasses can be controlled via a wristband that detects subtle hand movements. Zuckerberg described it as “the world’s first mainstream neural interface.” He emphasized that wearables are the “ideal form factor” for “personal superintelligence” (referring to AI that surpasses human intelligence).

However, a minor hiccup occurred during the demonstration when Zuckerberg failed to successfully answer a call from Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth. He joked that he had practiced “hundreds of times” without issue, attributing the problem to unstable WiFi connectivity.

In its effort to catch up with competitors in the AI field, Meta recently reorganized its AI team for the fourth time in six months, renaming it the “Meta Superintelligence Lab.”

Meta also updated its existing Ray-Ban smart glasses series with improved battery life, speakers, and camera performance. However, during the live demonstration, the glasses failed to correctly respond to wearers’ questions. The new Meta smart glasses are manufactured by Chinese supplier Goertek.
