News about the Meta Quest 3S, possible Ray-Ban smart glasses and Metaverse AI features

It’s been a year since Meta launched the Quest 3, its first major attempt at integrating mixed reality into a consumer-focused VR headset. At today’s Meta Connect 2024, we expect the company to continue expanding its headset family with a more affordable Quest 3S (which will likely replace the Quest 2). And judging by the many rumors this year – and a bit of teasing from Mark Zuckerberg himself – Meta will likely show off its Orion AR glasses. And don’t forget Meta AI. We also expect more news about AI features in the Ray-Ban smart glasses as well as the company’s apps.

Join us as we broadcast the Meta Connect 2024 keynote live!

  • On one hand, the technology behind AI automatic dubbing and lip syncing is very cool. On the other hand, I am SO sick of social media videos being completely dubbed by AI.

  • We’re now getting a glimpse of how Meta is using AI to automatically sync creators’ videos on Reels and match their words with automatic lip-syncing to make it look like they’re speaking the translated language. We’ve seen a demo with English and Spanish, and Zuckerberg says they’re planning more languages ​​soon.

  • Meta actually introduced these custom creator AIs earlier this year. The idea is that you can outsource responding to your followers to AI. But now, instead of chatbots, creators can create a photorealistic AI version of themselves that can actually speak, making it look like you’re actually video chatting with them. It’s pretty crazy.

  • Don Allen Stevenson III is one of the first developers of text-based AI. His AI answers many of people’s frequently asked questions.

  • However, this seems like something of a risk considering that the celebrity-branded chatbots launched last year were quietly discontinued earlier this year after the response from users was less than overwhelming.

  • “Thank you, Awkwafina,” we will all soon say.

  • Apparently the leak is true: the prominent voice actors include John Cena, Judi Dench and Kristen Bell.

  • Zuckerberg says Meta AI is “on track” to become the most used AI assistant later this year, though it’s unclear how he arrived at that statistic. WhatsApp is reportedly the most popular platform for Meta AI right now.

  • According to Zuckerberg, there are almost 500 million active Meta AI users per month.

  • Zuckerberg just praised Green Day. They just played a show in San Francisco and Zuckerberg posted a photo from backstage with their lead singer, so yes, he is a fan.

  • We take a look at some games, including a new Batman VR title and Triangle Strategy from Square Enix. It’s so crazy to see 3D sprites in VR.

  • He also shows off the ability to record 3D rooms with the phone and then visit them on Quest 3 and Quest 3S. This is part of a new app called Hyperscape.

  • Zuckerberg showcases new Horizon Worlds features, including co-watching on YouTube. He says they’re improving their avatars, which got a chuckle from the crowd, because we all remember Zuck’s embarrassing low-res avatar from a while back.
