Meta wants eyes

Meta Connect 2025 Puts Wearables at the Center

Meta just wrapped its Connect 2025 event, where Mark Zuckerberg took the stage to unveil a lineup that makes it crystal clear: Meta wants AI on your face.

• The headliner: the $799 Meta Ray-Ban Display. At first glance, they look like chunky Ray-Bans. But pinch your fingers and a screen appears in your right lens—messages, maps, Instagram Reels, all floating in your field of vision. It’s the closest we’ve come to what Google Glass promised a decade ago.

• For athletes: the $499 Oakley Meta Vanguard. Wraparound design, sweat resistance, built for people who run, ride, or train outdoors. Think less “tech demo” and more “gear you actually want to wear.”

• For everyday use: the $379 Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2. 8 hours of battery life, sharper 3K video recording than the previous gen, and a charging case that holds two days of power. These are the glasses that finally feel practical.

Meta isn’t stopping at hardware. Developers are getting a new Wearable Device Access Toolkit, letting apps tap into the glasses’ vision and audio sensors.

Amazon Debuts Agentic AI for Sellers

Amazon is bringing a new always-on AI agent to third-party sellers—turning its Seller Assistant into more than a helper.

What it does: The upgraded agent handles tasks on its own, from inventory monitoring to compliance checks. It flags slow-moving products, suggests pricing tweaks, and ensures listings meet safety regulations across markets. Sellers remain in control, but much of the manual work is automated.

Example use case:

• Spotting products that risk storage fees and recommending actions.

• Preparing shipping strategies based on demand forecasts.

• Auto-checking compliance rules in different countries.

DeepMind’s Gemini 2.5 Wins Programming Gold

Google DeepMind says its latest model hit a milestone: It’s the first AI to win a gold medal at the International Collegiate Programming Contest.

What happened: Gemini 2.5 solved a real-world problem that stumped human programmers—figuring out how to move liquid through a complex duct system—in under 30 minutes. Out of 12 tasks, it nailed 10, ranking second among 139 of the world’s best student coders.
