Would you be surprised to find out that the facebook "smart" glasses have been outsourcing the video for review and processing to Nairobi?

Wealthy people once lived with vast staffs who cooked and cleaned for them, and who often knew intimate details of the lives of the powerful.
Now we have found a way for the rich to outsource ... thinking. Off-load mental work to minds half way around the world. We are suppose to pretend AI is doing this work.
I can't help but think about how this tech might be used in better ways. What if instead of secretly sending the video off so that some person making next to nothing can identify the milk carton in the fridge or your brand of underwear...
What about a pair of glasses that were paired that would let you show someone how to do a task by projecting a wire-frame of your body in the same orientation as yours over theirs?
All while talking to each other?

@futurebird why would you have sex with these on
I think we know why in some cases. It's a power thing in a way. A kind of exhibitionism.
Also they may save the video for later.

The glasses could be the same color and have other indications how they are linked. So it's obvious that when you have them on the person helping you could see what you see and talk you through it while showing you exactly how it's done.
It could be a really useful teaching and assistive technology.

@futurebird i suspect that this will be possible when this technology is reproducible without needing any kind of license and can be developed on libre software made trustworthy. the complexity is location and body tracking, so it'd be simpler to just generate the wireframe body in front of the viewer and let them see how the task is done

@futurebird spyware sex glasses is a special kind of post-2020 idea. either way this entire situation is abhorrent

Why don't ya'll ever want to invent anything useful or exciting?
It's just facial recognition for the secret police, sex spy cams, random people looking at your underwear, creepy stuff and never someone showing you how to do a knit and purl correctly, never making going up the stairs easier for people with limited vision, never a damn good idea. I'm doing this again:

@futurebird no, I thought Canvas had thoroughly monopolized all the underpaid overworked workers of Nairobi in its surveillance of US, CA, and EU students. Kind of impressed there are some left over for meta's raybans.
