Meta had plenty of things to show off at this year’s annual Connect event.
The company’s CEO introduced a range of new and improved AI products at the firm’s headquarters located in Menlo California. Moreover, this includes updates to the VR headset Meta Quest 3S and the rollout of its AR glasses called Orion.
Other than these latest updates, the Facebook CEO also boasted about how AI is the future, and Meta plans on embracing that to every extent it can get. The arrival of the thick black glasses from a giant metal case caught quite a few people’s attention.
As Zuckerberg mentioned, it’s all just so exciting. The glasses are awesome and they rise to a bigger and brighter future. If that was not enough, Meta says it is looking at Orion as a time machine. You get to glance at the future and can make the most of a hardcore product that’s designed using silicon and metal alloys.
Users can interact with the offering via hand-tracking voices and wrist-based offerings. Some did criticize it as being too bulky which it did claim is now smaller in size and sleeker in design. Similarly, Zuckerberg highlighted the many great offerings like AI features including voice prompts and assistants to cater to needs at all times.
Meta hopes to work on improving the product and also make it cheaper for the masses to afford. It also shared how consumers would certainly not be disappointed during the rollout of these Ray Ban glasses. Did we mention you can stream music and scan QR codes while using apps like Spotify along the way?
We will also see additions like video features and the chance to perform language translations such as English and French, then Italian and Spanish. These are translations in real-time.
Zuckerberg rolled out the event this year with expanded versions of its bets on AI while making plans to release personal images from bots like ChatGPT into its app’s feeds. Furthermore, the arrival of a new range of the Quest Line for Mixed Reality headsets was also called Quest 3S.
Among the many updates mentioned, the one that struck out the most was the audio upgrade. The famous digital assistant dubbed Meta AI will now take voice prompts and give users the chance to make celebrity impersonations like John Cena. Zuckerberg hoped it could be more natural than the rest.
It looks like Meta really wants to cash in on the world of AI and with over 400M individuals making use of Meta AI every month and more returning, it all makes sense. The goal is free-of-cost models and more AI assistants on the way. At the moment, it already has Llama 3 models which include multimodal variants that use both text and image prompts.
The Quest 3S headset will hit the market in October and can be found in two kinds of storage capacity sizes. The smaller one is $300 while the bigger one would be for $400. But this means discontinuation of the Quest 3 that was rolled out last year from $650 to $500.
