Will AI-powered wearables augment our intelligence forever? #TEDTalks #AI

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.

    There goes away the basic thinking skills that we humans have 😂

    We need to stop making the world worse. When this is convinced with law enforcement, the implications will be profound, and will alter society. For the worse

    Imagine the amount of data and profiling they can do with these. I mean they already collect a ton from our mobiles and more, but this is way worse. Convenience is a killer. They own us with this.

    This is scary, as it means keeping the AI on at all times… but I do see the benefits of this. Imagine a world where everyone has a glass or contact lenses with ai? Theoratically, a single ai system has its eyes on everything especially crimes and can help stop them

    Why didn’t it answer the question ” Why don’t you…” Instead?????

    This is crazy – would you take them off while going to the bathroom as that’s when i love to scroll social media? Just saying it’s a little creepy even for the convenience. Any semblance of privacy would be null and void.

  10. @metaphics

    Yuck. I don’t want random AI programmers having access to everything I see.

    • @josemontilla-p5s

      April 21, 2025 at 6:40 pm

      Well don’t worry then there is nothing random about who has access to all your data.

    • @samuelsurfboard9887

      April 22, 2025 at 2:09 am

      Google already has access to all your data so it’s still the same thing

  11. @rkellermusic

    April 21, 2025 at 12:14 pm

    So we don’t need to think anymore? Is that the goal here ?

    • @pattracey105

      April 21, 2025 at 12:40 pm

      The Global elite have an agenda to hugely reduce the world population through war, poverty and famine – imagine how many jobs will be lost with this.

  12. @pattracey105

    April 21, 2025 at 12:45 pm

    I am impressed but also terrified. Cameras the size of a shirt button can be linked to this. Privacy is a thing of the past. The way government agencies will use this is terrifying. The number of jobs lost incalculable – the elite dystopian society is no longer in the future it’s here and now. If only we had taken George Orwell’s book 1984 as a manual not a work of fiction.

    • @MrStredders

      April 21, 2025 at 6:29 pm

      It’s a weird thing though: people don’t want governments harvesting their data, but are quite happy to give it all away to Facebook, Instagram etc whenever they post the trivialities of their lives all the time.

  13. @Willa.Johnson

    April 21, 2025 at 12:46 pm

    With all this AI help. It’s making our reliance on our own memory to falter. Always asking something where is this? Where is that? We are going to become the dumbest race there is.

  14. @FabianSiller-d2w

    That was pretty amazing actually try to myself with the smart TV and it was pretty cool you guys can talk to him in a normal sense without a shortcut in it🎉

    I really appreciate your efforts! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?

    It won’t augment our intelligence any more than a smartphone does.
    It just offers a level of convenience, but when did that ever augment anything?

    • @adubber97

      April 22, 2025 at 8:48 am

      I think it would affect intelligence because we don’t have to actually try to remember things anymore. Lack of exercising your brain makes you stupid.

    Nothing about this is impressive at all. This is the fullest prostration and deterioration of the human species to the fullest degree. Prove me wrong.

Fusion power may not be sci-fi. Just ask the people who sunk $5B into it | Equity Podcast

Fusion energy has been “20 years away” for decades, but has the science finally caught up?

Fusion energy has been “20 years away” for decades, but has the science finally caught up? Private investment in fusion companies surged from $10 billion to $15 billion in just months, and the money is coming from places you wouldn’t expect.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Rebecca Bellan and guest host Tim De Chant sit down with Rachel Slaybaugh, general partner at DCVC, to break down why serious investors are finally treating fusion as a real asset class, and what the return thesis actually looks like when no one expects a power plant in their fund lifetime.
