POLL: Would you be uncomfortable talking to strangers wearing AI smart glasses? [View all]

Some but not all smart glasses will show an LED indicator light when they're used to record, but even brands with that indicator light can have the light disabled, and a working indicator light might not be noticeable in certain lighting conditions (bright sunlight, for instance).

Smart glasses can also be used with facial recognition apps, and Meta is currently considering adding facial recognition to its smart glasses.

I'd be uncomfortable and would limit conversations with them.

I'd be uncomfortable at first but would ask if they were recording and believe them if they said they weren't.

It wouldn't bother me at all if they were recording.
