Mark Zuckerberg predicts a super dystopian future that has everybody wearing the same thing

Tech mogul Mark Zuckerberg has predicted a very dystopian future where everybody is wearing the exact same thing.

The Meta CEO has made some interesting predictions about the way we’ll use technology in the years to come, and he reckons we’ll all be wearing it on our faces.

When he spoke to fellow giant in the industry, Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang, at a conference earlier this week, Zuckerberg shared his thoughts on the future of tech.

His forecast might seem bizarre now but apparently one day we’ll all be rocking hands-free AI-powered tech that could double as a fashion statement.

The rise of smart glasses is set to become the new hit trend, according to the billionaire.

At the conference, he said: “I think what you're going to end up with is just a whole series of different potential glasses products, different price points with different levels of technology in them.

“So I kind of think, based on what we're seeing now with the Ray-Ban Metas, I would guess that display-less AI glasses at like the $300 point are going to be a really big product that, like tens of millions of people, or hundreds of millions of people eventually are going to have, and you're going to have super interactive AI that you're talking to.”

Zuckerberg’s company Meta launched their own smart glasses in 2021, which was a collaboration with Ray-Bans and earlier this year it announced that AI would be integrated into the glasses.

The Facebook co-founder went on to say: “The goal there has been, okay, let's constrain the form factor to just something that looks great and within that, let's put in as much technology as we can — understanding that we're not going to get to the kind of ideal of what we want to fit into it technically, but at the end, it'll be like great looking glasses.”

The idea is that chips built into the glasses will enable them to have a holographic display.

They also have camera sensors so that users can take photos, videos, and even livestream on Instagram or take video calls on WhatsApp.

There are other companies working on similar products and Google has been trying out different models of these smart glasses since 2013.

A firm called Snap Inc. also made Spectacles, which are glasses with augmented reality enabled.

So, Zuckerberg might be onto something - the future of tech could be built into the glasses we wear.
