Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses do the AI thing without a projector or subscription

The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses have been something of a pleasant surprise. They make videos, take photos, livestream and act as an adequate replacement for headphones, all while looking like a normal pair of sunglasses. However, everyone's been waiting for the addition of multimodal AI after early access testing began in January. What is multimodal AI? Simply put, it's a toolset that allows an AI assistant to process multiple types of information, including photos, videos, text and audio. It's an AI that can view and understand the world around you in real time.
