Picture this: you’re wearing a normal-looking pair of glasses, but they give you the ability to quickly summarize a book, translate between languages or remember where you left your keys. In a live demo of unreleased technology, computer scientist Shahram Izadi unveils Google’s new Android XR platform, which aims to give users the power of AI via smart glasses and headsets. He’s joined onstage by two colleagues, giving a glimpse of the future of “extended reality” (XR) devices — smart, seamless and right before your eyes. (Recorded at TED2025 on April 8, 2025)

    If it can just focus things for me, without me having to buy a new pair of glasses every couple years, I’d be happy with that. GPS sounds nice too, though I’ve seen other versions I thought seemed better than this one. Only other reason I think I’d want the glasses, is to help me find my lighter XD

    It’s a screen inside the glasses! that is to say, a phone glued to your eyes… we always talk about avoiding blue screens because they generate health problems, eye problems, visual fatigue, insomnia, and so on… And nobody wants to wear glasses all day long! 🙄😒

    As a young teenager I used to be bullied for wearing glasses. And here we are now. Sooner or later wearing glasses will be the norm. And everybody will stumble over all kinds of things on the streets while reading and watching videos, and recording every move of everybody. Everybody will be James Bond now. You will all know that the end of the world is near when the TechBros and the governments are rolling out spyware for your a-holes.

    I can see the many upsides to these glasses but I can see them causing all sorts of problemsas I already had a customer recording me at work I was the only one that noticed this because of the white light my colleagues were so shocked that this was happening without them knowing or aware it was happening it made nearly the whole store anxious as to why they were being filmed doing there job I also think about people with social anxietys already then there’s those that will use them for bad things ie stalking, casing a place to break into I’m sure the human race will find many more bad uses for this tech!😮

    So many “black mirror” and “techbro privacy intrusion” comments. If you don’t want it, don’t use it. Nobody is forcing you to buy these.

    Let the people who actually see the value of these products — and who know that tech companies aren’t harvesting all their data, or who don’t care if they were, because the benefits outweigh the risk — benefit from and enjoy these inventions.

  55. @renderererer3572

    April 20, 2025 at 8:18 am

    Perhaps it was just an example for the sake of illustrating capabilities but recalling where you left something by recording your every move seems a bit intrusive. Sure, you could only wear your glasses in environments that you’re comfortable being monitored but now, the glasses can’t really help you if you’ve misplaced something outside this environment.

    Also, assuming the data that it records is completely local and secure, won’t offloading your ability to remember simple things affect you on the long term? Where do we draw the line here on how much help we should have?

    I’m still not sure how I feel about AI. Its amazing power and how its can and will be used in the future is a bit worry some. It can become something very good for the planet or something very bad. My faith in human nature is not what it once was.

    I like the idea of real time translations allowing you to converse with anyone regardless of language. This would be truly remarkable. For traveling, it would be an amazing tool. Maybe make people a little less anxious to try out new things and meet new people.

    April 20, 2025 at 10:54 am

    Shahram, may I say something? Although Nishtha looks perfectly fine, your fashion sense and that adopted by your colleagues in the tech engineering world are lousy. Blue jeans & Levis are for riding horses on the farm or motorcycles on the street – esp. ill fitting ones like most tech bros parade around in. While a coat & tie may not be the only solution, just wearing trousers that match the articulate nature of your discourse might further your message about Extended Reality & AI. Tech pioneers in Asia cultivate a far better understanding and respect for their appearance and how it affects & humanizes what they represent. If a Samsung engineer wearing lumpy jeans came up to me offering a deal on ER glasses, I would not give him 10-cents. If this is what the future looks like, I don’t want any part of it.

    “Working with us on our terms” – The “our” here refers not to the users, but to Google, Microsoft, Apple et al, it’s on their terms. These gatekeepers hold all the cards, control the flow of information, and decide what the users are allowed to do. It is exciting and potentially quite useful tech, but I’m not keen on engaging with it until the control is in my own hands.

    It’s nice, but ultimately, I don’t see it becoming mainstream until we have the full display of the VR inside glasses which look like this. There is a reason why we have a big screen in our pocket. It’s nice photography and a nice way to view the results, movies and games. Ultimately we need Vision Pro or Quest 3 level specs in glasses as small an unobtrusive as these. Meaning these glasses will be just a niche stepping stone for the next 10 years.

    Also imagine the amount of jobs that will be lost to AI once it infiltrates every area of our lives (which it already is doing thanks to these mad tech scientists and companies). Not sure why people are excited about this or why humans keep on including AI in everything. Life isn’t headed into a nice direction tbh if people keep hyping such destructive products.

    I think it’s short sighted not to see the potential here (yes it does feel like an advert but what better place to share something that could change the world) and how it could help humanity.

    It’s cool tech, but tech companies need to understand that no sane person wants to just talk out loud with their ai glasses. It makes you seem insane if people are around.
    We need BCIs to handle thought to “prompt” for these kinds of glasses/wearables, so we can just think of what we want and it does it without any speaking needed.

    Two wish list items. First the near future doable. Closed captioning conversation discrimination in a noisy environment (parties, industrial settings, etc). Second, a memory enhancing trick. Monitoring a conversation for keywords and projecting potential follow-up topics from AI/web that can be expanded to a variable degree for conversational enhancement. Example: You are discussing the first James Cameron Avatar film and trying to recall one or more cast members. “Avatar cast members” would provide a scrolling list as the conversation progressed.

    I’m ready for this technology now. A long time sci-fi reader, I’ve read about lots of tech that eventually became available. At 73 my timeline is short.

    Super excited for Google’s XR glasses, especially for travelers like me who’d love real-time translation and AR navigation! But I’m worried about Gemini’s availability—since it’s not supported in some countries (like parts of the EU and China), will key features like live translation or AI memory be disabled there? It’s like the Pixel’s limited rollout all over again. Anyone know if Google’s planning to fix this for a global launch? Would hate for these to be less useful when traveling to unsupported regions!

    Hmm, I’m sceptical. It will be an improvement, but also able to serve you even more, (and more convincing) tailor made ads.

    gemini, when’s the last time you saw me naked?

    gemini, I was talking to myself earlier but forgot you were there. did I say anything stupid or embarrassing?

    gemini, is my data private or are you sharing it with others?

    This is amazing. The future is gonna be different. The human race is facing uncharted territory and we need to embrace it and help it grow morally and fiscally right for all humanity. Our government should be more involved helping AI and robotics to work for all humanity and betterment of all creatures and earth. This a global change. This will affect everyone. Traveling will be a daily activity. People will be nomadic, exploring the entire planet and others. We should all be excited for the future and we should work together to create a beautiful future that will allow society to thrive and enjoy this beautiful planet and our children’s children will enjoy what we create. We need to worry about our future. We need to think far ahead in this changing landscape and bring all our logically thinking minds together democratically and create something for all the world to live together symbiotically! Here’s to the future!

    Looks good, but this also looks like a recognition attempt like with Apple and its glasses, which were destined to be released in 2022, never happened, and now we never here anything from it again. To me, AI is not that advanced yet, and this is just hype to get investments within their company. Don’t hold your breath for this to be available to the public.

    Mhm, this is cool and all but “enthusiasts” and alike have to understand that from a techies perspective this is a privacy/rights nightmare. A device like this isn’t just going to be capturing and selling your data, it’s going to be capturing and selling everyone’s data around you without their consent. So you better believe this has to be under extreme scrutiny, same with AI Androids walking around. Laws/policies need to get caught up with current times before all of this becomes extremely prominent. It’s already bad enough with mouth breathing parents and alike using Alexa, and cameras, in their house with children, etc., and people using phones without any form of caution. We need to start taking this seriously and start recognizing our rights to privacy.

    There are simple solutions to all of this, there are no more excuses. My entire tech lineup is completely private from email, OS, to hardware, it’s easily doable now with a very small amount of research. I’ll be waiting for private/open-source versions of these products, and connecting it to a private/contained network/Graphene OS, etc. The future of tech is exciting, and I believe most of us would love to enjoy all of this without compromising our rights.

    AR glasses are the future, so in few years they might take the role of a smartphone, just one that you have on your face all the time. China also started mass producing the first nuclear batteries. In a few years you would have a great screen/computer on your face that would help you with everyting at all times without having to even charge it. That’s what I’m waitning for and I truly believe that’s our future. I hope that the wait is almost over, max 5 more years.
