The Meta AI smart glasses, a pair of smart glasses that enable veterans to'see' the room around him for the first time, have tripled in sales over the last year. The glasses, which activate by voice command and can be used as a virtual personal assistant, can identify clothing color, menus, recognize faces, and even provide navigation as he walks outside. The company has partnered with the VA to provide the glasses directly to blind veterans. The same AI is now being used to power the 200 million small businesses on Meta's platforms. Last month, Meta launched its Small Business Initiative to equip 250 million small and medium businesses with new AI tools and is leading the company’s push alongside head of product Naomi Gleit. The move comes as part of a White House Correspondents’ Dinner event hosted by Meta at the Waldorf in Washington, DC.
