I also have no idea they don't have location tracking like find my iPhone/airpods, seems trivial to add
For open source glasses there's a few potential options, I think omi.me has an open smart glasses project.
I'm surprised no one has found a way to properly jailbreak them, it's a bit out of my wheelhouse but would be fun to try one day.
It would definitely be better as it's quite a pain for daily use or out and about and more of a tech demo in its current state.
As you know the current setup with langpal's API is literally just next API routes from the marketing site. Bit of a strange and hacky coupling haha.
Can't wait to see and use this!
Sick project!
Haven't used ollama but I've used GPT4ALL and that has the ability to turn on a simple rest api that mimics the standard openai completions endpoint, so would be super easy!
I originally made a version of it at a previous job awhile ago as an innovation project but didn't get too much traction so have recreated a better version using a completely different stack.
My newer version was also originally tailored just for people looking to get a job in the Australian Public Service but have now pivoted it to big tech (as I have an interview coming up )
There are currently 2 interview modes, Problem Time Trial and Algo Kata but more to come in the future
Problem Time Trial was using questions scrapped from leetcode, thinking about it, probably a big no no so they're removed.
It’s also quite incredible with the speed of how they listen to feedback and improve (i.e with how quickly Bun was added).
Have never used fly.io but looks interesting from their marketing
`Using this image, estimate the nutritional information of it and output it as a JSON using this data structure: { "calories":int; "protein":int; etc... } `
But the latency was about 30 seconds so during an interview it wouldn't be that useful haha
However, not too familiar with trawling through decompiled APKs (also presume there's some sort of internal secret they're using too)
No worries!
No one has noticed they're any different, especially outside as I got transition lenses so they just go into normal rayban sunglasses mode. You could have a similar effect if you wore those old "new" 3D glasses out and about.
Even colleagues had to squint.
If I do ever have a bad interaction with strangers I'll just tell them about the lengths meta have gone through to prevent bad actors. (i.e: knowing you're trying to cover up the flash).
Recorded on OBS, uploaded to linkedin, screen recorded on iOS then uploaded to Youtube.
Is that not a standard workflow haha (initially was just to send to 1 mate who didn't have linkedin lol)
I first attempted a more standard approach via a webhook hosted on Heroku linked to an fb page, which theoretically would of worked.
But, Meta has limited you to only sending messages/pictures to "real people".
I believe they have to be on your friends list for a certain amount of time too but haven't properly tested all the edge cases.
The potential is definitely there and I'd be very surprised if the Meta Reality Labs team haven't already added heaps of features internally and are just waiting or staggering releases.
