Meta’s 'super sensing' glasses could record 24/7 for an AI assistant

Meta is reportedly developing prototype “super sensing” smart glasses that could continuously record audio and take photos for Meta AI to query, with raw footage potentially not stored and only metadata uploaded to servers. The approach, described by the Financial Times, would raise privacy concerns amid ongoing scrutiny of facial-recognition features and recording indicators. Meta says privacy is built in, and an update can disable the camera if the privacy light is tampered with, though the LED may stay off during “AI Feature” or “super sensing” use. Executives have signaled glasses could become a day‑long personal assistant, and FT reports detail, though release timelines remain unclear.
