Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has once again shown his strong support for the future of AI. In a recent blogpost, Zuckerberg shared his belief that smart glasses will soon become the main way people interact with AI. In the second quarter earnings call, he even said that people who don’t use AI glasses could end up at a disadvantage in the future.

Zuckerberg also shared his future vision for smart glasses. He mentioned the idea of adding a display to the glasses, which would help users get more out of them.
